He also espoused the belief that ex-felons who had served their time should not be restricted from owning firearms. Not ones who were on parole, but ones who had completed their sentences. "After all", he said, "they've 'paid their debt to society', haven't they? If that's the case, don't they have the same right to defend what's theirs as anyone else?"
I disagree with this. Part of their debt to society is to forfeit any right to own firearms.

If that mattered to them, they should have thought about it before they became felons.
