i was a felon 20 years ago for some stupid things i did when i was young.it wasnt a violent crime and never involved a weapon of any kind.i am a reg.voter.some people should be alowed to have a gun especialy if the have gone so many years with out being in trouble,and have not commited a violent crime and not have used a weapon in a crime.i can get a rifle but i have to go back to court and pay out the butt.and then go through a mound of paper work.how many of you actualy know why people have the right to bear arms?ther are a few reasons that was put into the constitution.1 to fight a tyrant oppresive government,meaning your own like they had to do way back when.but whos to sa our government is or isnt?people say felons need to get jobs.well give them a chance some times insteed of have on an application (if you are a felon we cant hire you).that makes no sence.so if you have the chance to help some on change thier life do so insteed of shuting them out.when they kill you for money so they can eat or rob you to pay thier rent for thier family.mayby then youll think.people are so fake now days its sick.i think some of you here in this forum dont use your heads either.when will people grow up or quit acting so dumb?
