    Some people are whores! They will do some very nasty things for money!

    Just look at Paul Ryan and all the nasty things he did for money!

    Good riddance Paul Ryan- we will always look back on you as being one of the biggest whores who ever got elected to office!

    WHORE!

    I don’t really have a problem with this. Forget the fact that you believe they will be reliably democrat voters. If someone has paid their debt to society why should they be prohibited from ever voting again?

    I really don’t understand the logic behind it.

    For that matter why should violent criminals be prevented from voting?

    I am not being argumentative. I just don’t see why people who have paid their debt and are US citizens shouldn’t have all rights restored and that means voting, owning a gun etc.

    What is being missed is murderers and sex offenders are not included.

    That's because you know murderers and sex offenders will vote Democrat. 50% of the violent crimes are committed by blacks.

    Ronald Reagan and Tricky Dick Nixon kept voting even though we all are aware of the Watergate and Iran Contra crimes they were involved with.

    Most ex-convicts were not convicted of violent crimes, for starters.

    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.

    But that doesn’t mean they should lose their rights just because they vote for the nazi party. That isn’t freedom

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

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

    Hey fuzz nuts I voted for the amendment. I think it's great that murderers and sex offenders like you lefties were excluded.
