:laughing: this is low key the funniest post I've seen here in months

Yes but only with guns that can shoot one bullet at a time

like a old 1834 musket ball rifle

"3 time felon" really tells us nothing tbh

But out of principle yes

It tells you the same amount of information as the title of this thread.

Should felons be allowed to own guns?

Well, that depends. Are they non-violent crimes? Has the person reintegrated into society favorably? Does that person have a history of violence?

It's such a blanket statement for each case to case basis. In my case, they were all non-violent crimes, I have no history of violence, and I've reintegrated into society favorably.

Should I be able to own a gun legally as a convicted felon? Yes.

Do I want to own a gun as a convicted felon? No.

What were the 3 felonie

I already addressed this as best I can. Yes °felon" is a blanket term that is over inclusive. That's a problem with this sort of law, but beyond that I'm saying that no matter the felony there's no reason to assume they pose an extra risk with a legal gun except for maybe crimes where a legal gun is used, such as domestic shootings. In that case maybe I could see restrictions. But not just any violent or gun crime because most of them don't involve legal guns anyway.

So you would say that if a felon committed a violent crime with a gun, they do their time and are released, they should lose their right to own a firearm (in certain circumstances)?

If so, what circumstances would you say necessitate that? A school shooting? A church shooting?

Like I said if we were going to go case by case the only plausible scenario I can think of is cases like domestic murder or abuse. That's the only kind of crime that typically involves a legal gun that isn't severe enough to warrant life/the death penalty. To me, mass shooters should never see the light of day, so they aren't relevant.

Interesting. I don't know if I agree with you. Generally my take has been that if a criminal has done their time and is released, their rights should be fully restored. They will have enough issues with finding employment with their felony record. That said, I'm not a hardliner on the issue, I could be swayed.

Are you a supporter of the death penalty, out of curiosity?
