An appeals court blocks Mississippi's permanent ban on voting after certain felonies

Jump

  • oh, we've got a felon in the family. useless bastard, he's been in and out of prison his entire miserable life - hence my opinion. thank God he's not allowed to vote, with the piss poor choices he makes. honestly, that whole side of the family is fucked.

    • What websites do you use as an alternative to Amazon?

    Jump

  • why? I really like amazon, it's super convenient - like, I dont have to worry about buying gifts anymore - especially for my relatives, they're really difficult to shop for - I just do the amazon gift card.

    I order a fair amount of tools, utility goods, and snacks via amazon because they just arent sold around here, or it's just cheaper on amazon when you factor in the fact I dont pay for shipping.

  • willingly and knowingly breaking the law is a crime, regardless of if you agree with the law.

    but I agree with you on naturally occurring plants - cannabis and poppy should be perfectly legal, but thc concentrate and opiate derivatives should be illegal. even hard alcohol should be regulated.

  • eh, do you really want people convicted of forgery to vote? seems like it's setting a bad precedent.

    murder? yeah you lost your rights to vote, deal with it. had to look up what bigamy is, and I wasnt aware that was even a felony.
