That's not new. I don't know why you guys think it's the end of the fucking world, but in a lot of states felons can vote as soon as their sentence is over.

i'm not sure how i feel on this one yet. on the one hand, they paid their debt and should have all rights any citizen has. on the other hand, violent felons are people you wouldn't generally want to decide the nations path.

If you cant trust em to vote maybe you cant trust them walking down the street. Im personally against any punishment that extends past the sentence. That includes registries, jail docket websites, travel restrictions, etc, etc.
Its not because i feel sorry for these fucks. Its because if they are so mother fucking dangerous we need to low jack them and make them register on pedolist.com....why in the love of fuck did you fuckers let them out of jail in the first place?! If they are dangerous for life,sentence them tolife. Fuck that. Sentence them to firing squad. Just dont make me subsize your game of Where In The World is Juan Pediago.
