A Ninth Circuit panel Thursday ruled that a blanket prohibition on convicted felons possessing firearms violates their Second Amendment rights, at least when it comes to nonviolent offenders who served out their sentence.

In a split decision, the three-judge panel threw out firearm possession conviction of a Los Angeles member of a street gang who had five prior felony convictions and was later sentenced to 51 months in federal prison for being a “felon-in-possession.”

I believe there is a line in there somewhere, but it's certainly NOT "if the crime is punishable by more than a year". Or even if it's a "misdemeanor or felony". Those are both completely arbitrary.
 
All these special rules for "felons" just allows the government to create a slave class; once they are out of prison they must be given all the rights of a free man. If they choose to commit more crimes then lock em up for even longer or at some point just execute them.
