The point of calling it a right as opposed to a privilege is that it is universal and has no exceptions.

Nothing is a right. Rights are made up. Nobody us entitled to anything. You have to either be lucky enough to get something, work for it or a combination of both.

The exception is literally written into the text of the amendment.

Then it's not a right.
There is nothing about a right that is inherently permanent. The word simply doesn't imply that at all. You need to modify it with an adjective like "inalienable right." None of the rights listed in the constitution are set in stone. They could be repealed with a constitutional amendment.

in other parts of the world it's typically not a right
Not all convicts are banned from owning guns, all felons are, regardless of violence or not.
not all felons are excluded from owning a gun either
Under federal law no felons can own guns.
Find me literature that proves otherwise.
Also felons can vote in ohio.

People who have felonies can petition for their right to obtain a weapon again in some states.

3. According to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, "Felons whose convictions have been set-aside or expunged, or for which the person has been pardoned or has had civil rights restored" are not considered "convicted" and thus they would not be prohibited from owning a gun.
Holy shit I can get a gun!!!!
I had my civil rights restored when I got done with my felonies. I am so getting a pistol next week.

"03-06-2013 PROBATION - TERMINATION - RESTORED TO ALL CIVIL RIGHTS "
I never knew I could get a gun. I have been sitting around gunless for 5 years, and I get off probation tomorrow.
I am so getting a gun next week.
This is amazing news.

Both can kill.
imo they should be licensed and restricted similarly as both are pretty dangerous, and there's a lot of idiots who shouldn't be allowed to drive, just as many shouldn't own a gun. I don't see anything wrong with that as long as the restrictions are clear and not subject to too much manipulation after being instituted

I can agree with that. It's certainly not a black and white issue.

lolololololololololol
where were these 'rights' pre-history? How exactly do you determine these specific rights to be endowed by the creator?
