    Yes, Exactly -- it must state that gun rights are included within the
    scope of the pardon. If it does not refer in some way to the issue of
    gun rights then it will not be sufficient to remove the taint of the
    conviction in regard to gun rights. A simple pardon is not enough --
    it must be absolute.
