First of all you admit that there are different severity of felons. A guy who broke the clean air act by doing illegal state inspections is not the same as a guy who robbed a bank. But even so, by becoming a felon you surrender some of your rights. You have proven an inability to conform to a basic society without infringing on the rights of someone else. If you want to try and equate that type of person with others whom act fairly normal than go ahead.
Personally I could care less if a felon has a gun. Why is that my business? If they want a gun, they will get one illegally anyway. A background check isn't going to stop them.
A friend of mine is a felon. Does he not have the right to protect himself and his family?
