Gun Control & RKBA

although Canada and Germany allow nonviolent felons to own guns once they finish their time. Those are countries that view gun ownership as a privilege and not a right. I also think the Gun Control Act's definition of "mental defective" should be modernized. Someone committed for anorexia thirty years ago should not have a life time prohibition. If you are a danger to yourself or others, then you shouldn't be out of the hospital unsupervised.
Most states allow excons to vote.
Personally? I think Vermont and Maine have the right idea. At least Wyoming is moving in the right direction.

As for Wayne's claim, may or may not be something to it. I have seen the claim that felons tend to vote Democratic. I have no idea if it is true or not, since I have never seen a poll on the subject, just claims for partisan sources.
