Question
If its a constitutional right to bear arms how can i loose the right forever. i was convicted in Ohio and it was a violent act but did not involve a firearm.. will the state laws out weigh our constitutional rights, if so how are they justified? I was born an American and am due my rights

Answer
That's what happens when you become a convicted felon... you lose certain Rights, including the Right to Keep and Bear Arms.

Get over it, stop whining about it, and try to lead a better life if you have any hope of ever regaining those lost Rights.

I can answer questions about Handguns, Rifles, Ammunition, the Firearms Industry, the "gunzine game," practical accessories for self-defense (CCW) handguns; rumor control on firearms myths, errata on the "gunshop grapevine."

I am NOT an Attorney, and nothing I provide here should be relied upon as legal advice. Therefore, please do NOT make inquiries about Criminal Justice issues... this is the Second Amendment topic.

Nor do I do "Private Consultations." Want to made it "private," retain an attorney.
