Apparently, you misunderstood the central point of my post.

Clearly.

I believe in aboloshing background checks and allowing anyone who's not locked up for a crime to own a gun.

But you wrote: If someone is deemed a greater-than-average threat to public safety, based on past actions, he should be kept off the streets. Apparently, you believe in incarcerating anyone who poses a risk... whereas I believe that people sould only be punished after they actually commit a wrong.

Or are you proposing life sentences for anyone who has committed a crime with a firearm?

I suppose “greater than average risk” was the wrong phrase to use. When I said, “based on past behavior” I meant violent crime, not acting up in class. I apologize if that wasn’t clear.
