    Post: Federal Law Question

    Posted by Andrew on 11/23/04


    In my state (Missouri) There is no law that disqualifies a
    non dangerous felon from owning non concealable firearms.
    But under Federal Law I am not allowed to own firearms.
    My question is this since I owned the gun prior to
    conviction and never surrendered it. How would the
    interstate commerce setion of the federal law apply. Can
    limitations on things purchased legally be retro applied?
    Is there a specific federal mandate that says upon
    conviction the firearm must be surrendered? Next question
    under missouri law I am forever bared from serving on a
    jury. But have the right to vote and have found no
    specific disqualification from public office. What are
    the measure of civil rights being restored. And since
    when did serving on a Jury become a civil right and not a
    duty? If you don't vote you don't go to jail, if you
    chose not to serve public office you don't go to jail, But
    if you skip Jury Duty there is a warrent issued for you
    arrest. Next someone will tell me that if attending Court
    cases on your own behalf is a Civil Right. Any way My
    question is does any one have any specific information on
    Missouri has to how hard it is to get a pardon?
