ReplyWhen I dem is in the house Republicans always takes Virginia and New Jersey and vice versa, when Republicans is in white house dems take them. But this time Republicans only took one of them so that should send warning bells to Republicans. They weren’t able to get both states as usual. Both sides of media are spreading this bs saying it over and over again making people believe they actually are worried about Biden. Biden Is doing all he possibly can. The man has been working his a** off. He actually worked to get the infustructure bill passed. Do you think Trump worked like that? Meeting with Republicans AND democrats? No he wouldn’t work with democrats period, Biden actually does. The man is doing the best he can but with Republicans constantly obstructing constantly so democrats can never get nothing done. At least they try and do things that benefit us you can not say the same about Republicans.
ReplyI dont think it’s a problem for voting but who added that to jury and trial clause
ReplyDear Trevor, why the canned laughing?
Reply20:52 Ted Cruz: “I don’t know any reasonable person who looks at our democracy and says, ‘The thing we need is more murderers voting; more rapists voting; more violent criminals voting.’ I don’t think that makes a whole lot of sense.”
ReplyThere are _many_ things I can say about this. Where should I begin?
First, I find his use of the word “reasonable” a convenient little qualifier. So anyone who dares to disagree is someone he can just dismiss as “obviously unreasonable,” no matter _what_ they say.
Second, is not the highest objective of a reform system to minimize _recidivism?_ There is no country in the _developed_ world with a recidivism rate anywhere _near_ that of the US and the countries with the _lowest_ recidivism rates (a _fraction_ of ours) are countries in which it’s not just legal for _ex-cons_ to vote, but _inmates._
Places like Norway, for example. In the US, the annual recidivism rate is about 80%. Some years, it’s a little higher. Other years, it’s a little lower, but it averages out to about 80%. In Norway, on the other hand, it averages out to about 20%. It’s a _quarter_ of ours.
The Norwegian correctional system _cannot_ attribute this effect to greater _brutality._ The Norwegian correctional system is _not_ more brutal. Very much the _contrary._ The average human being is _not_ plagued, deep down, by the need to inflict suffering on other human beings, and human beings in Norway are _not_ definitively different from human beings in the US.
No, the intent of punishment in Norway is solely the restriction of liberty. No other rights are taken away. An offender in Norway has the same rights as an ordinary citizen, including the right to vote.
Now consider, when’s the last time Norway showed up in the news because some great _disaster_ took place there? Is there a place in the US being overrun with Norwegian immigrants?
Its gona happen everywhere. Cos Brandon didn’t want to Let’s Go!
Reply23:05 Personally, if he hasn’t actually been saying anything against looking at low-budget films, I would not hold this against him (no pun intended), but this supports something _I’ve_ long been saying about the need (at least in the US) to restore the distinction between _personal_ life and _professional_ life.
ReplyLooking at low-budget films? This is a _personal_ concern. Running a _political_ campaign? This is a _professional_ concern. Draw the line of distinction and keep it clear.
Nothings getting done! A Black Woman is in power. Why did the alias agree to hire Kamala Harris as VP? As a nation and country, we just want to hire a Black Woman President, now! No more for confederate Representatives, they just want their rights! The governments rights. No human civil rights for the citizens. Contradictions and lies.
ReplyMassachusetts has a Republican governor, why hasn’t anybody been going crazy about him?
