Topic: Felons Voting | |
---|---|
Why shouldn't a convicted felon who has served their time and payed their debt to society not be able to vote? Not everyone who commits a crime is a bad person. Maybe sex offenders shouldnt have the right to vote, but for the rest of felons it makes them feel as if they are no longer a citizen and brings them down even more. Not all criminals are evil; in fact most aren't.

Good point, especially with the non-violent felons.

I don't know about all that, maybe they shouldn't own guns, but they should still be able to vote. I know people who have been in prison for violence and they are great loving caring people who would do anything they could to help someone out. I was born and raised in a very violent environment and have been violent myself, but I love people and care about my family. I am a good person.
