How about my crime. I am one of the crazed baby-killers who is guilty of having carried arms in South VietNam. If their present government chose to charge and convict me using an ex-post-facto law and find me guilty in absentia, then you are okay with me losing my right to keep and bear arms? Or will there be some sensible exceptions?
What could have been more sensible than this case. What the guy did wasn't even a crime in the US, well no more than a civil penalty type crime, that is illegally importing ammunition, even though he really wasn't importing it, but rather merely possessing it. His real crime in Mexico was probably not having enough cash for the bite due the Mexican immigration officials. Yet he has lost a constitutional right, forever. I think the law needs to be changed to provide for automatic restoration of one's rights, all of them, after the time has been served. That's the way it was prior to GCA '68, at the federal level at least and details varied from state to state.
