Do convicted felons no longer have freedom of reigion freedom of speech freedom of assembly, are they still allowed trial by jury can they have soldiers forced on them as lodgers do they lose the right to due process or become subject to cruel and unusual punishments?

It appears you want to infringe on peoples rights regarding the second amendment while trying to trumpet the second amendment as a holy script
Nice way to change the subject completely, while ignoring the point of the person you're addressing. His point was that this guy got the guns in spite of all the existing restrictions, and while I agree that his post was a subject change itself, you ignored him completely so you could make your own little tirade.

As for firearms ownership by felons, Federal law considers that a convicted felon forfeits all rights, including the right to vote. I personally disagree with that, but that's another story. State law supercedes Federal law where the crime was tried by the State. Louisiana State law allows felons who have served their time, "Paid their debt to society" to have all rights restored.

I find it interesting how you bring up different angles, not so you can discuss the subject, but just so you can needle certain people.

And I see you've conveniently "forgotten" how to use that button again.
