Felonies restrict rights. I have no issue with that. We take away many rights under a felony.
Otherwise there is no punishment.

I reject a felony affecting individual rights. I will never report anyone with a conviction for possessing guns.

There is more to this than guns. This is about losing constitutional rights over a minor conviction.

Domestic violence is not minor. Jfc.

A misdemeanor conviction is a minor conviction. A serious crime is a felony.

Every and all kinds of convictions will never negate or nulify consituional rights. A criminal still keeps 100% of consituional rights. No law restricts a constituional right.

Criminals do not keep all their constitutional rights, when they are incarcerated they are not free to move about or posses many things. Felons on probation are not allowed to associate with other felons.

That isn’t true. A felon can’t vote in many jurisdictions. They can’t own a gun. They can’t run for certain offices. There are many things a felon can’t do.
