    rumpy just murked those who oppose the reactivation of voting rights.

    This is a Republic with democratic practices, and this is what FL decided.

    Read again what I wrote above. Jeez.

    Hey, grandpa, of course, you voted for it. You now get to vote again. If I were a Floridan, I would have voted for it.

    I really don’t understand the logic behind it.
    1. The majority will be arrested again.
    2. It is a deterrent to committing crime
    3. It is indicative of bad judgement
    4. It is an indicator of a lack of civility and disrespect for law and order
    5. It is an indicator that they are not vested in bettering the community and general welfare.

    Etc.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    Sure looks like you faulted me for not wanting across the board restortation of rights.

    Second, once you receive your punishment and finish paying your debt to society, you are still an American citizen entitled to rights, including the right to vote.
    Show me where the right to vote is mandated in the U.S. Constitution ... other than restrictions placed on the States by the 26th.

    Bigdog, as usual, is incorrect. Voting is a right embedded in the Consitution.

    Grumpy murked, I don't support across the Board voting for ex-felons such as sexual offenders or murderers. I do support in general that ex-felons who complete all requirements and penalties imposed upon them should be allowed to vote.

    Yes, I am glad you can vote again.

    Nice try numb nuts but I have never committed a felony, unless you consider being in the military for 24 years a felony. You're a leftie so you most likely do consider GI's criminals.

    In this day and age the entire world does. We don't do defense at all. Not since WWII. What we do now is for profit, the Wall Street/donor/"job creator" class, and the economic colonization of the planet. No wonder you're grumpy. How many of ya'll are taking yourselves out a day?
