I tore some pillow tags off. There, I said it. I've not been sleeping well due to the guilt! There are lots of non-violent or "peaceable" felonies. Writing bad checks. Forgery. Possession of certain drugs. Simple theft. Growing some pot plants. Damaging a highway sign. It used to be a felony in Montana to brand a cow with a frying-pan. Of course, the cow might think that was serious. I could continue with the list. Don't get me wrong, I don't condone any of these offenses. I just don't believe that any person should be deprived of his 2A rights based on them. For that matter, I am inclined to believe that once a person has served his/her sentence and is fully discharged therefrom, regardless of the nature of the offense, his/her 2A rights should resume. I don't disagree with a person being disarmed, obviously, during periods of incarceration or serving probationary time.
