Should political crimes be considered in the list of felonies which prohibit gun ownership? Should there be a movement to reduce such crimes to the status of misdemeanors?
Let me give some examples of fictional felony violations which are all too possible.
An fictional elderly widow drives through Oklahoma and on her way stops at a Cherokee tribal gathering. One of the men is selling laboriously hand painted feathers, which each carry a deeply meaningful religious design. She buys one and carries it home, a misdemeanor, but later remarries and her second husband wants to redecorate so she sells it at a garage sale, committing a felony. Should her RKBA be affected? http://www.ibiblio.org/pardo/birds/archive/archive7/msg00088.html
A fictional farmer plows the same field his father plowed in the 1970's and his grandfather plowed in the 1940's raising the same crops. He uses the same contour plowing methods and uses modern pesticides according to published safe practices. He is found to be in felony violation of the Florida environmental laws based on a particle count of the creek a half mile downstream from his property. Should his RKBA be affected? http://www.ibiblio.org/pardo/birds/archive/archive7/msg00088.html
A fictional Texas bar owner is renovating his establishment. He knocks out a wall between two back rooms, to make way for a large handicapped-accessible women's rest room. He puts the old plaster and debris into an old metal drum he'd used for many years. The drum is so old and rusty he decides to throw it away as well. Unknown to him there was a tiny amount of asbstos insulation around an old electrical line which had been removed in order to bring the new room up to code. He loads the drum in his pickup truck and drives it to the county landfill where he is promptly arrested and charged with felonious dumping. Should he lose is RKBA? http://www.tlc.state.tx.us/research/77soe/S25.htm
A jury acquitted one man of felony spanking. However his fictional next door neighbor's fictional child happened to be a juvenile delinquent. The little rat heard about the charges and got his friends to spank him until he was bruised. Then he showed his backside to the school counselor. Should the fictional neighbor's felony spanking conviction prevent his RKBA, expecially since it was based on false testimony? http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/printer-friendly.asp?ARTICLE_ID=33974
