John,
Totally agree. Some accountant who fuched up the books and got nailed for a felony is not the same thing as a bank robber or someone who used a weapon in the commission of a violent crime.
I do not know the rules or regs but many states have laws that felons who have been off probation or out of jail more than 5-10 years have their rights restored. How far this goes I do not know.
Personally I would love to have someone like G.Gordon Liddy on my side as opposed to a bank robber. Both are convicted felons... but should not be treated as such in some areas.
