May not run for public office.
Added: May not possess a firearm or explosives (federal law).
ALSO: Although most states tend to treat convicted felons in a SOMEWHAT similar manner, however, some states (under the unique circumstances set by THOSE states) may restore certain privileges to convicted felons that other states do not. BE AWARE that these restored/limited rights do not apply to them in any other state other than the one that restored them.
(example: If state 'A" restored a felons right to hunt with a firearm, the felon could NOT take the firearm to hunt across the state line in state 'B.' In state 'B' he could be legally charged as a felon in possession of a firearm.)

∙ 15y agoThis question is not precise enough. It allows for the wrong conclusions to be drawn. It could be asked: "If someone is convicted of a felony level offense, what restrictions are placed on them".
This is also still quite broad as each state has different regulations.
The real problem is that "Felon" is just a label that is applied to someone convicted of an offense. Even though it generally stays with someone for life, it is NOT a Life Time Brand that means the individual is a Bad person forever.
The term felon all too often condemns a man or woman forever. Laws and regulations are created to disallow "felons" from doing certain things. This is immoral and ridiculous. It does not support someone convicted of a felony level offense but rather, it bars them from so many things that would promote a healthy lifestyle. It leaves most feeling that they have no choice but to be a "felon".

∙ 13y agoI have been a felon for 8 years now and I can tell you that your best bet would be to start a home based business. About six months ago I found the perfect home based business and I am now passionate about helping other like-minded felons and teaching them how to start a business from home.
