To point out the height of our INjustice system... The idea that Martha Stewart cannot own a firearm is ridiculous!

No matter who you are you have a right to protect your own life.
Not all felons are violent felons. I don't know where I'd draw the line though.
Indiana law allows people who aren't violent felons to possess muzzloaders, not 100% sure whether they can possess cap and ball revolvers, but those can be purchased mail-order without an FFL.
If someone is too violent to own a firearm they should still be incarcerated!
