How do you not see that this is just a different flaver of collectivist "greater good" speek? So do you have a sliding scale of citizenship class? Does one class of felony make the perpetrator less of a citizen than another, or are all felons lumped into 2nd class?I didn't say that they were violent. Rather than they no longer were people who society could trust. Thus second class citizen status.
Armed robbers, gangsters, muderers, yeah it's hard to say let them have guns when they get out. But man, let's at least allow some discretion.
