Yes it does indeed

And a few are folks i otherwise admire

But not most

I see plenty of my usual foes on JBTBLs side

When the shooting war starts goody two shoes here wont care if their co-patriot fighting by their side was an ex felon or not long as he has ammo

If he has by chance an M47 and some Marlboro reds you’ll want him to marry your daughter

You must be unfamiliar with federal sentencing guideilines

Likewise...states are as a rule handing out sentences far longer than 20-50 years ago

And parole is disappearing

Youre thinking 1960

7 years to life for murder in Mississippi

Those days are gone

Thank TV and urban riots

This is why crime rates down...more folks locked up

Rand Paul did not say this is the most serious issue facing the country.....he said it was our biggest voting rights issue

You just attributed that falsehood for emphasis for your point of view

A not uncommon arguing tactic....but kind of like mild lying but thank the lord not a felony...yet

And you know that

I think he thinks its morally right and might net some black votes

I dont care about that....not enough blacks to matter except maybe a few marginal states

I just think its right

But i dont agree its our biggest voting rights issue....fraud in minority communities is
