I disagree. The purpose of 2A is to prevent the government from tyrannical behavior. Should a felon who has been released be confined to relying on everyone else to defend him? Think of a retarded person who is severely autistic or something. Should they not be allowed to defend themselves from the government? The answer is to have more guns in more hands to prevent the one idiot from using their gun for harm. 1) if I see someone about to harm you, I can kill them. 2) if you are being attacked, you can defend yourself.

Restricting any free man, including those who paid their sentence, is taking away their freedoms.
