Yes?

2019-05-12 16:00:38 UTC  

This surprises you?

2019-05-12 16:01:06 UTC  

Has she said anything recently?

2019-05-12 16:01:38 UTC  

Idk, have you even seen her 2hr+ interview on Joe Rogan?

2019-05-12 16:01:43 UTC  

I never agreed with her " sensible gun control" bs but I wouldn't call her anti gun as I would the rest of the dems idk

2019-05-12 16:03:18 UTC  

I guess not I'll watch it ty

2019-05-12 16:03:43 UTC  

If you're not in favor of rolling back the National Firearms Act, don't even call yourself pro-2nd amendment

2019-05-12 16:04:22 UTC  

She believes in the gun show and internet loophole bs. And wants strict control

2019-05-12 16:04:29 UTC  

Yang tbh is the least of the bunch

2019-05-12 16:05:10 UTC  

She also wants 16 year olds and confined prisoners to vote

2019-05-12 16:05:58 UTC  

even Britain doesn't do that

2019-05-12 16:06:22 UTC  

prisoner vote

2019-05-12 16:06:24 UTC  

I'm all for reenfranchisement post full sentence served

2019-05-12 16:06:35 UTC  

yes, after release

2019-05-12 16:06:36 UTC  

But while in prison or on parole no

2019-05-12 16:06:48 UTC  

dems would extend the franchise to fetuses and ban abortion if only they would vote democrat

2019-05-12 16:06:49 UTC  

No I would keep them off during parole

2019-05-12 16:07:03 UTC  

after release is already what happens in Britain - seems to work fine

2019-05-12 16:07:05 UTC  

You are essentially probationary member of society at that point

2019-05-12 16:07:43 UTC  

Once your full sentence is up (which includes parole) then by all means

2019-05-12 16:08:00 UTC  

It can sometimes give ex-cons a reason to engage with society... the criminals don't really do much voting in the first place

2019-05-12 16:08:22 UTC  

- street criminal...

2019-05-12 16:08:38 UTC  

...white collar criminals are a different story

2019-05-12 16:09:01 UTC  

The only ones I'm on the fence with are voter fraud felenies

2019-05-12 16:09:25 UTC  

If you knowingly abuse the system I lean towards permanent ban

2019-05-12 16:09:42 UTC  

i think if you're going to let niggers vote, why not criminals?

2019-05-12 16:09:47 UTC  

and same for women really tbf

2019-05-12 16:09:52 UTC  

I think they could have personal vote but be banned from any form of campaign/election involvement

2019-05-12 16:10:28 UTC  

Well that should be the case for campaign infractions. Separate from voter fraud

2019-05-12 16:11:03 UTC  

They probably don't want to get very specific for fear of outlawing all the politicians, LOL

2019-05-12 16:11:25 UTC  

Don't let the disabled vote <:pepe_smug:560207654207750154>

2019-05-12 16:11:49 UTC  

But the whole "they are citizens" arguement is meh. They committed a severe crime against society as a whole. We already limit their citizen rights.

2019-05-12 16:12:03 UTC  

And they arnt fighting for the other rights

2019-05-12 16:12:05 UTC  

There is a case for intelligence tests before being allowed to vote

2019-05-12 16:12:17 UTC  

well, we violate some of their rights on as as needed basis

2019-05-12 16:12:28 UTC  

but those violations serve a necessary purpose

2019-05-12 16:12:31 UTC  

No we blanket ban them from some

2019-05-12 16:12:43 UTC  

not letting them vote doesn't seem like it's necessary or conducive to any particular goal

2019-05-12 16:12:51 UTC  

You can have a financial or campaign felony and cant own a gun

2019-05-12 16:14:23 UTC  

It's a blanket ban. But like I said. While being punished you have even fewer rights. But I would be fine with restoring the vote post punishment. But to me that includes parole

2019-05-12 16:16:30 UTC  

Because to me parole is part of the overall punishment. It is just "you have been good so we are incentivizing that behavior and letting you out of full confinement to a lesser form"
