Default RE: Should Felons own Firearms?

I read in the paper the last couple days two very interesting felony charges.

The first was a lady in Reno, NV who had some pine trees cut down in front of her house that was blocking her view. The problem was that the trees were on public property. They charged her with theft of government property and defacing government property with enough value that the potential prison time was 10 years.

The second was an 18 year old that was charged with a hate crime for threatning bodily harm for driving by a civil rights gathering dragging a couple of hang nooses behind his pickup. He was originally charged with DUI but the charges were later raised to a felony hate crime.

I'm not sure if either has been convicted yet or not.
