A convicted felon cannot have a gun.

Where in the second amendment is that specified?

The Second Amendment is silent to that. Title 18 USC is much different.

An interesting discussion, but it is the law and the courts have upheld it as a reasonable restriction. Personally, I'm OK with violent felons, non violent felons who are no threat to self or others, not sure there's a compelling reason to restrict their ownership
