They never lost them. They're "criminals".

I thought you Republicans appreciated State powers.

These kinds of State Powers (State Law) are determined by their respective State Legislators.

SO, when a state legislation makes a state law you are unhappy with, you can only look at the State Legislators.

And if I am not mistaken, Florida is much like Texas and many of the other Southern Red States that are dominated by Republican State Legislators.

So basically OPie, you are barking up your own tree!

Stop trying to blame Democrats for everything you don't like, because you are barking up the wrong tree.

It was a ballot measure

It was a ballot measure

Yes it was, however, legislators work for the people- the voters! REMEMBER?

When an issue like this becomes a general consensus- it is put to referendum in the next election, and the people will get their way!

You know why? Because they have the power of their votes!

Do you see how Democracy works now?

The legislature didn't pass any legislation.

This was voted on by ballot measure. I live in California, we govern by ballot measures. I'm very familiar with how ballot measures work.

If Florida is accepting the proper civil rights of the system's victims, good for Florida!

Well yeah, but legislators are supposed to work hard for corporate money, so hard for it honey, and you'd better treat them right.

the bottom line is that this will turn florida blue. it's a huge win for the blue wave.

Because criminals are known voters? Or known Democrats?
