I would much prefer only allowing tax payers the right to vote than not allowing felons.


Like the Mexican kid says, why not both?

don't agree with this on principle. Nobody should be denied constitutional rights for committing crimes unless through amending the constitution. However, it is a good move politically for conservatives.


I mean, it’s already outlined in the 14th amendment that they can be denied their right to vote for participating in a crime. No amendment needed.

The only clarification I would seek there was if it meant federal crime.

What if they are unable to pay? 


Boo fricking who! Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.

You're on a roll in this thread. Please keep going, you're pure comedy gold.

Yes.

I have no sympathy for criminals. You shouldn't either.
