"I support the right to bear arms, but only for the lawful citizenry."

It seems that this guy whose punishment for past crimes was concluded, WAS behaving lawfully, aside from the techinical violation of the disputed law.

Seems to me that his punishment for past crimes wasn't concluded. His punishment apparently was that he'd be locked up for a specfic period of time, plus have his right to a gun and a vote taken away for life. I propose that thinking that his punishment is limited to the term of incarceration is a mistake.

By the way, what's disputed about the law? Has someone filed a lawsuit disputing it's Constitutionality?
