Thread: Black Oganization Enlists UN to Allow Felons to Vote

I just saw in the news where the NAACP has petitioned the United Nation to force the USA to allow convicted Felons to vote.

Seems like a better tactic would be to teach blacks not to commit felony crimes.

Why not? They help illegal aliens vote...

This is one of those areas where 'States rights' should be pared back. Currently, you've got a situation where two states- Kentucky & Virginia- disenfranchise ex-cons for life. Two other states- Maine and Vermont- allow current prisoners to vote. The other states are various shades between. There is a shitfight going on in several Republican lead states to further disenfranchise ex-cons, because their theoretical vote favors the democrats.

It really makes no sense that this sort of thing should be individually determined by 50 different states. A matter involving franchisement and disenfranchisement at federal voting level is very much a federal matter. The rules should be a national standard.
