Felons and Firearms question

[YALE]

As company policy, not by using the law specifically. You can be fired, not prosecuted.

By a recent law, a company cannot penalize you for possessing a firearm in your vehicle.

Not my office, hes a client and is the owner. Only 3-4 employees, so they have a fear of calling him in as it would mean they would be out of a job. Company is broderline anyway with the aforementioned legal/financial stuff so they are walking a line.

and in some cases even the parking lot.

Regardless of CHL most workplaces have a no firearms policy.

Unless it is his own office or something. Meaning one he pays for...

LOL Wait a minute. Unless he has a CHL he damn sure cant be carrying it around your office and showing it off. Not exactly travelling in a car at that point.

Even if by some chance he was pardoned, and has a CHL, it's not quite concealed at that point either.

Most company's explicitly prohibit firearms on company propertyin their employee handbook, and in some cases even the parking lot. Even if there are no signs posted, it may be legal to carry in the eyes of the law, but will lead to immediate termination.

Do you think criminals maintain all the rights they had before they were convicted felons?

For the most part they do already, but not while serving their sentence. After that I believe they should have the same rights as they did before unless they committed certain classes of offenses. I refuse to hold a malum prohibitum type crime against anyone for the rest of their life. I believe in lifetime restrictions for malum in se type crimes.

I have only driven through Waco; never lived there. And no, I am not that guy. I also don't believe in criminal's rights; I only believe in civil rights for everyone including criminals.

Are you that "svo" guy from Waco that was an admitted thief on the other site? He seemed to always side with a criminal's rights.

There is something else to consider here. Gov Bill Clements liked to give pardons. If a felon discharged their sentence and did not get into any more trouble for 5 years after their discharge date Gov Clements would give them a full pardon. During his 2 terms in office I believe that he signed 14,000 pardons.

I appreciate the offer but his conviction is not in question or doubt. Just whether or not it was illegal for him to own a firearm.

[svauto-erotic855]

OK; I will back down from this. A client with a felony conviction who happens to own a gun 25 years later will not ruffle my feathers in the slightest. A person who is about to crack playing with a gun in an inappropriate area is of great concern with or without a felony conviction.

PM me his info and I will run his name. If he does come up with a conviction on his record I will pass the info back to you. On the plus side his gun is going to be your new gun if he has a record since he can't call the law when you take it from him.
