If they were violent offenders, letting them have a gun is a lot more worrisome than letting them vote IMO. I never really understood the prohibition against felons voting anyway. I mean, unless they were convicted of treason or espionage or something like that, I don't see why their opinion wouldn't be worth just as much as anyone else's.
