"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..." |

| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
