Very easily! Unless these rights are restored by the governor or the President of the United States for federal convictions, once you are convicted of a felony, your civil rights are taken away, such as the right to vote, to hold public office, to serve on a jury, to hold certain jobs involving contact with people, such as a barber, a lawyer, position, etc.; and, most notably, to own or possess any type of firearm. In most states, however, if your felony conviction is not of violent nature, your rights can be restored to you automatically.
