Thank God. Felons shouldn't vote.

I'm a felon and I vote in Texas annually which is legal after having discharged your sentence/ parole completely. Thank God for a Constitution that allows this, and for people who support that Constitution. I know society thinks all felons are pieces of garbage who should have no rights, as I've been treated since I caught mine at 18 years old several decades ago, but there are just as many or more people in America who committed a felony and just didn't get caught at some point in their lives, even if its having drunk and drove on 3 separate occasions.

I'm in favor of massive criminal justice reform. DJT has started this process.

There's basically nothing about our current system that can be said to even try to rehabilitate anyone. Rehabilitation involves restoring a person to being a fully functional member of society, which would of course include employment and being an informed voter.

The laws are so messed up and there are so many of them that the average american commits three felonies every day without even knowing it.

With corrupt DOJ, FBI, judges and others? Not a great idea. Pls read for example the story of Kyle Myers (FPSRussia).

Felons should have their privileges restored after serving their sentence. Either they have paid their due or they should stay in prison.
