25. How do we define violent felons is the problem.
The charge of felony is loosening way too much. Also, there are already laws on the books in many states the ANYONE convicted of a charge of domestic battery looses their gun rights. Sounds good on paper until you see all the stupid stuff included in domestic battery. Get mad, smash a plate and now you cannot have your right to guns. Doesn't make since to me.

And of course there is always, and I mean ALWAYS, the exclusion for cops. Now if it is that important why are police excluded? I would think that a police officers unique position of authority and trust puts them on a level of superior scrutiny, not an inferior one.
