We just had a release here, the inmate served two years, was recruited by the Army and had his felony charges dropped.

I agree, I wish there was a mandatory Service requirment for certain crimes. A Certain type unit even. Just imagine what type ofmentalimpact that would have on the enemy. There are alot of felons in prison that have sentences that are to harsh for their crime. And we the taxpayers pay $30,000 a year per inmate in the Federal system.

I think we should stop letting the gov. take away rights period. First they will take away rights from the easy targets pretty soon its your right to hunt all together fellons shouldnt be allowed to hunt with a firearm because of the firearm but lets not take away hunting all together for alout of people its the only outlet they have you never know you could find yourself or your child in that spot someday you wanna lose a hunting buddy.

i believe that the time is served in prison. telling them they can't own a gun is just fine, that is for other peoples safety as well as a cop. think of it this way, do you think that not allowing this person to take a bow and learn to huntand appritiatethe wild is a bad turn in his life. also when is the last time a felonknocked over a gas station with a bow. my friend has 2 more years till he can legally hunt, i believe he already paid his debt in prison and should be able to bow hunt.
