As I pointed out before, if restrictive felon voting laws, combined with a justice system that disproportionately convicts minorities of felonies, improperly deprives minorities of electoral power; then a felon body armor ban, combined with the same justice system, violates a seemingly even more fundamental right--the right to life. I, in fact, would take that a step further, and say that a racially discriminatory justice system, combined with the 1968 Gun Control Act's prohibition on felons even touching a gun or ammunition, is a clear violation of the Second Amendment--a violation that will be even more clear if the plaintiffs win in McDonald v. City of Chicago on the 14th Amendment's Privileges or Immunities clause. [More]That's today's St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner. Also learn how throwing a snowball can get you a lifetime ban on firearms and body armor possession.
