I’m definitely not into people that smoke dope or use any other sort of drugs. PERIOD.

But I do believe in the 2A. Just because I do not like pot heads does not mean I think they do not have the right to defend themselves.

I also believe that a convicted felon, once having served his full sentence, should have his 2A rights restored. I mean if they are going to be repeat offenders, they will find a gun anyway. The ones that go straight, that lead crime free lives are the ones being protected by the 2A if rights are restored.

I would add, if a criminal can be trusted to be released from jail, and once every conviction stipulation has been met, then I see no reason to deny the person the right to self protection. Otherwise keep them locked up. That’s the way it used to be.

I agree...I also believe every single gun law is unconstitutional except in the case of “murder”.
