If you substitute the words "convicted criminals serving a sentence," no.  A person may be a "prisoner" who is being held, bur not convicted.

Agree.  I see no reason to ease up on people who break the law and harm others.

If their sentence is less than 2 years, yes. If not, no. But they should have their rights restored once they complete it.

That's a reasonable position.
