I was appalled when it happened (2008), and remember thinking, "Why not just be a bad guy?"  The only thing they can't legally do is own a gun, and if that is the case, just ignore the law, because..... well, you're a bad guy, right?  No rules, and plenty of benifits, if you know how to work the system.....

...alas, try as I might, I'm just a Good Guy...... can't help it.

Also, when I went looking for the links, I found that much of the debate about it at the time had mysteriously dissapeared from the Internetz ...... I had to go to a convict support site to find the info... 
The Right to Keep and BEAR Arms is enshrined explicitly in both our State and Federal Constitutions, yet most of us are afraid to actually excercise that Right, for very good reason: there is a good chance of being arrested........ and  THAT is a damned shame.  III.
