Usually I would say...if you are a convicted felon..then that is your own fault and you get what you get. However, these days, at least in my state, it dont take much to get a felony charge slapped on ya...so with that bein said, its hard to say.

I dont think felons should vote or serve on a jury...period. Birds of a feather DO flock together. Its also human nature to feel sorry for folks who has went through somethin bad if you have been through the same thing so puttin em on a jury is just silly.

Felonies and guns..I think while sometimes a felony charge aint always violent...but you made yer bed and now you gotta sleep in it.
Its unfortunate in some cases...but oh well.
Fabs got it pegged...criminals in general get away with too much now as it is and I dont see no need in lightenin up on em even more.
I understand that sometimes, people just make mistakes like Fab's freind. However, not only did that mistake cost someone their life, but it was stupid and irresponsible. You dont want someone with those 2 characterisitcs with a gun, on a jury or votin.
(I aint tryin to pick on your freind Fabs but he is a good example. I'm sure he is a good person, but it dont change what he done.)
