"They are convicted of a felony, yes, I believe they should not have their firearms. They should be taken away. But just to blanketly say that any misdemeanor will make you lose your firearms for life, is not right," said Morse.
Morse says there are different levels of misdemeanors and not all should cost someone their firearms. Lewis County Sheriff Mike Carpinelli agrees.
"An instance where there are words that are shouted, there's a cell phone that is thrown, a door is kicked in, that is no reason to take somebody's Second Amendment right away," said Carpinelli.
This is just the first of several proposals the governor hopes to unveil next month as part of his State of the States address. |

According to leftists, criminals, including rapists, murderers and other evildoers are amenable to rehabilitation and release into society, but an emotionally charged shouting match (and doesn't the risk of losing the relationship add fuel to that fire), where both parties controlled their anger and didn't escalate to violence is suddenly cause for a lifetime suspension of a Constitutionally protected Right. Maybe they're just fearful of what they might do with a firearm and are engaged in classic projection of their own flaws and fears onto others, thinking, "Hey, if I murdered someone, it'd somehow be justified, because I 'care'... but if one of those evil guys who actually wants to have a gun exhibits any level of anger..." |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
