Let's discuss
I saw this on newsok.com this morning. Do you agree with this bill or not?
Oklahoma bill to allow some ex-felons to have guns
A bill that would allow some ex-felons to have their rights to possess firearms and other weapons restored is one of several gun bills being considered by a House panel.
A bill that would allow some ex-felons to have their rights to possess firearms and other weapons restored is one of several gun bills being considered by a House panel.
The House Public Safety Committee is scheduled to hear a bill by Cordell Republican Rep. Todd Russ that would allow individuals convicted of a nonviolent felony who has completed their sentence and probationary period to have their gun rights restored. The bill would allow those individuals to also apply for a permit to carry a handgun.
Even those convicted of a violent felony could have their gun rights restored if they have completed their sentencing and received a pardon from the governor.
Under current law, only those convicted of a nonviolent felony can restore gun rights through a gubernatorial pardon.
Re: Let's discuss
So here's my opinion about this. I think no matter what kind of felon you are (be it violent or non-violent) you should not be able to own a gun. I do not agree with this bill. You are a criminal. You gave up the right to own a gun when you did the crime.
