I believe in the law. The law on felons is different state by state. In most states, the law says that a felon does not get to vote until some specified time after they have done their time. End of story. If you don't like that law, then you have a choice. That choice is to use your vote to elect people who believe the same thing that you do. If enough of you vote for enough like minded people, then those elected Congress men and women can create a new law that overturns those state laws that you don't like. Again, that is your choice. Felons voting is the least of my worries.

I worry about big issues that matter, like the environment, ridiculously expensive health care, the sorry state of education in this country, the reckless actions of the Federal Reserve that distort our economy and impoverish the 99%, the lawlessness and chaos of the liberals, the increasingly strident belief in Socialism the liberals are embracing, the never-ending wars that the Military Industrial Complex is engaged in that is impoverishing this country, the victim mentality of the Millennials and inability to embrace self-reliance, and corruption I see among our leaders on the left and the right. We have far bigger problems and issues than worrying about felons and their rights or lack of rights to vote.
