Considering the abundance of domestic violence offenses that would otherwise be considered a lifetime sentence of removal of firearm rights, I would propose making domestic violence incidents only apply to felony or above convictions. It is the only criminal offense to repeatedly serve life sentences upon predominantly men, indicating a discriminatory bias, without the commission of a felony, and potentially due to false accusations from their partner. While domestic violence is a serious offense, and should be viewed as such especially in the extremety of cases, a misdemeanor is unable to be absolved unlike a felony, so even felons have more options to rectify their unalienable rights being "temporarily" removed during due process through expungement.
