Violence is so broad. I don’t think a guy who kicks someone’s ass in a bar fight should lose his constitutional rights. If someone can’t be trusted to walk among us with a weapon then we should stop letting them out of their cages.
With our prison overpopulation, parole practices, and ever more lenient sentencing it’s getting harder and harder to send people to prison for decent amounts of time. I’ve had a woman who stabbed her husband with a 6” screwdriver in the chest to the hilt get 2 years confinement and paroled out in 6 months. You think she really has the restraint to own a firearm?
