SoCal Deek Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 This is really today’s debate? When we get to the point where the voting rights of ex-felons is the LAST problem remaining to be fixed…let me know. 😉 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillStime Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, Chef Jim said: Set me straight Amendment 4 (approved by Florida voters) restored the right to vote for ex felons with the exception of murder or sexual offences in 2018. In 2019, DeSantis signed Republican sponsored Senate bill 7066, which requires ex-felons to pay off all outstanding fines, fees, and restitutions before regaining their right to vote. @SCBills - Nikki had nothing to do with the later. SB7066 is the definition of Jim Crow - what a hill to die on bro! Edited March 5, 2022 by BillStime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you have fully repaid your debt to society you will be allowed to participate in society. Yeah I know….THE HOOROR!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know if my country were under seige and in imminent danger of being taken over, I'm definitely checking to make sure a soda company is giving a proper "counterattack." What a total sham this is.

That's not what Floridians passed when 65% of them voted in favor of Amendment 4. Of course the Republicans would pass SB7066 because there is no way we can have those who PAID THEIR DEBT TO SOCIETY possibly vote against the GQP. smfh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every single one. You keep missing this very obvious and redundant history lesson. He literally came to power after they stopped being Communist, and every brutal dictator in history was socialist...really? I mean if you're going to complain about socialism or even social programs at least reach for the level of basic common sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Blitz Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 "Spread Russian Propaganda" Libs are complete fascist thugs. Good luck to teachers trying teach about this now. Classes only going to be: Teacher: "Putin is evil we must stop him." Student: "Does Russia have a historical claim....as in the beginnings of modern day Russia have roots in Kiev? Can you explain this?" Teacher: "We're moving on to the next boring cookie cutter indoctrination lesson." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 (edited) It’s absolutely insane. We’re reacting at home EXACTLY the same way we did after 9/11. -Western way is the only way -X people are bad -Suspend personal freedoms under the guise of imminent danger -American involvement in a country that has nothing to do with us is necessary -Wrap yourself in the flag to deflect any criticism Edited March 5, 2022 by SCBills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this context the intent was contingent occurrence. next, this is a slight bit more of a stretch, but understand how socialist utopia and communism are synonymous. now with this understanding please re read your first nine words and see how you literally exemplified my point. thx! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
