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?
