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 laterSB7066 is the definition of Jim Crow - what a hill to die on bro!

As a convicted felon you relinquish you ability to participate in a law abiding society which includes your ability to vote. Once you have fully repaid your debt to society you will be allowed to participate in society. 
 

Yeah I know….THE HOOROR!!

Because they served their time. 
 

Why shouldn’t they?

 

I’ve never understood this. 

 

Should they get back all the other civil rights they lose as well?

Who had the country of Ukraine trying to cancel Coca-Cola on their 2022 war bingo card?

 

 

 

 

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.

Nice job redefining what it means to repay your debt to society...

 

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.

Putin is just the latest example of the eventuality of your lefty socialist utopia, just like every brutal dictator in all of history.  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.

We'll agree to disagree then.


Why do you think they should not?

"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."

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

the fourth grade reading comprehension around here is tiresome..

 

ok… to break this down

 

Eventuality - first look up that word and understand it’s meaning. 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!

All true but this.   They have bastardized the Western Way.  They don't even know what this is and why it's worth defending. 

 

I've known this since 2008.  

 

They cemented it with Covid.  

 

It's the West that's in crisis and they know it.  Russia's invasion of Ukraine is being used as 2 things..

 

1.  Distract from the disaster that is the West

 

2. Putin is Trump's *buddy* so that means this is how evil Trump voters are.  

 

It's being used as a Proxy for Globalists vs Nationalists.  

 

History (the warped kind) has taught them nationalism must be bad because Hitler and I learned it was a cause for WWI.

 

Great examples!  Hitler was allowed to do whatever he wanted and was ignored by weak leaders in Britain and France because the sanctions placed on Germany after WWI* that crippled their economy created the environment for the Nazis to rise to power - at the same time the world faced an unprecedented Great Depression.  

 

 

*Possibly the dumbest most catastrophic war in history that no one can tell you why it happened and why exactly Germany was punished the way they were.  Without googling - any lefty here care to explain why that happened in your own words.  

 

Point.  Nationalism and Globalism not inherently bad.  Power hungry freedom suppressing lunatics are.  The only side I see doing this on the scale they've been doing it are the globalists.

did you mean 10?

 

I mean if you don't think the period of time where the Soviet Union collapsed and Russia transitioned away from Communism and the Oligarchs rose to power is important, okay but you're probably ignoring an important chapter that connects to current events.

 

Saying Socialist utopia equals Communism is like saying Capitalism equals Republic, sure those are two things we are but they are also two different things.

It really sucks to be on the wrong side of history and always nestled in Trump's bunk.

No one is rooting for Putin. 

 

But everyone needs to understand how incompetent the leftists in the West have become.

Shocking - YOU don't want to leverage the search functionality to highlight your hypocrisy on redefining what paying your debt to society means?

You're accusing me of hypocrisy not the search function.  How am I being a hypocrite?  

 

So again how have I changed the definition of repaying your debt to society?

Deflections?  Nope not me.  I'm asking you a very simple question.  You're the one that seems to have a hard time answering it.  I would call that classic deflection.  Soooooo let's try again.

I did not flip flop  They should be allowed to vote after they have paid their debt to society when they have paid their debt to society which is time served, fines and any restitution paid.  Correct?  Correct.

 

And what in the world does this have to do with Jim Crow?
