Default RE: Felons banned from bowhunting?

A fellony is a fellony peroid.
That's absolutely true....but ludicrous at the same time.

That's as generalized as saying Janet Reno and Jenny McCarthy are both "women".

I know a guy......Good husband (married 40+ years)......Great dad.......people love him. He was thrust into a business that he wasn't prepared to handle. He was convicted of federal tax evasion because he didn't know how to keep his books....and was too scared and intimidated to get help. He jus tthought it would go away. It didn't.

He has a felony record. He's one of the most gentle big men I know. He just isn't a very good businessman. He didnt declare bankruptcy.....and he repaid the debt in full.

And you think he shouldn't be able to bowhunt (not that he wants to....but his situation is likely not unique).

All felonies are NOT violent crimes. All felons are not violent.....even those who have committed violent crimes.
