While none of us have a right to a job, we all have a right to work. But if you are a felon....your right is amended.

My issue is two fold:
- That we brand felons for life, ignoring what their crime actually was.
- That we have made so many things illegal that becoming a felon is fairly easy to do for someone executing bad judgement (even if only temporarily).
I have hesitated on commenting on this, mostly because the OP doesnt like me a whole lot, but here goes:
That said, I'm sorry, but you do not deserve ALL of your rights back. You, by your own admission, hit somebody and BROKE THEIR FACE. You didnt just pop a guy in the mouth. You did long term damage. You have shown yourself to be incapable of controlling rage, and therefore, should not be allowed to own a gun.
Good, so now you are a violent felon who wants their rights back which you will not get because you dont deserve some of them.
