They paid their debt. They did their time. As long as they served their sentence, paid their restitution, finished their probation, and got all their fines squared away, I don't see why they should be excluded.
I also think that should extend to firearms. The exception should be those convicted of violent felonies or sexual assault. They shouldn't be allowed to own firearms.
Our criminal justice system is in desperate need of reform. It's true. Our shit is draconian as fuck and with the privatization of prisons, they've turned incarcerating people into a revenue stream. They profit off of taking away the freedom of others. I thought there was a term for that. Think it's called slavery. We seriously need to reform our DoJ's. In every single state. It's bad dude. It's real bad.
As long as it wasn't something to do with voter fraud for voting rights. Fuck that up once and you've lost that right. I agree with weapons except in violent/sexual criminals (and not the "I peed in a fountain next to a school" type sexual).
Our entire legal system top down needs to be wiped clean and started from scratch, Federal to local. The legal code is supposed to be understandable, it was created to be in simple language and posted in the town square so no one could claim ignorance.
Now, we as citizens are still expected to know the law front to back despite its ever changing form. Government officials from cops to 3 letter agencies can blithely ignore the law and claim ignorance or misunderstanding and its perfectly valid. It used to be that any official was held to a higher standard, and that's how it should be again.
I actually agree with that.
