Van Stone: Trick Question- Pres. Candidates, Should Prisoners Be Allowed To
Vote? This Here Philadelphian Registered Voter’s Op-Ed Is, No Question About
it.. Yes, To Vote Is There Right
I think that I’ll go for a walk today. No wait, I think I’ll
stay home today. Okay, because I’m locked up in jail, I really don’t have a
choice today. I had a thought about trying not to forget about voting today but
what’s the point of doing that? I’m in jail, I’m identified as a misdemeanor or
either I’m identified as a felon. So, I
am not allowed to vote because of have committed crime and not playing by the
rules.
Pay closer attention to the phrase, not playing by the
rules. Because most people that have used the phrase, not playing by the rules
most likely are those who could care less about rules let along playing by rules. This type of person most often always is the
he or she who meant to be really nice but he or she all but ignored the prisoner
at the jail.
For example: here’s one view about any prisoner at the jail.
“Now, if you’re just joining us from CNN this may shock you,
but when you’re in prison you lose rights. It’s called prison, not spring
break. So no — it’s not a slippery slope when denying voting rights to
prisoners, because the slope doesn’t exist. You’re in jail — there’s no
freedom. You can’t even vote with your feet! But in a socialist’s mind, sense
doesn’t apply. Socialists disguise their thirst for power as “the greater
good,” which means pretending to care while taking control.” — Greg Gutfeld,
Fox News.
Like I have said about someone who could care less about
rules, let along playing by the rules, or a prisoner and rules, having thoughts
that a prisoner should always have the right to vote is really about thirst for
power? Really? What power?
America is so amnesia happy, happy to have a deficit in memory caused by brain damage or disease, that
is. America has used its amnesia prone disease
to destroy so many people with an ease and a smile.
Many women, especially White women recall
suffrage, the right for women to vote, in America. Women weren’t allowed to
vote because they all committed a crime. Wait, that’s sounds like more American
amnesia prone stuff. Fact is, women were prevented from voting because of fear
of the thirst for power?
So, the power of a woman, a White woman,
was taken away from her long before she might even- have thoughts about committing
a crime. And the same goes for Slaves.
Any adult, not matter how young or old,
can understand that having thoughts about committing a crime or to not be thinking
but just committing a crime has absolutely nothing to do with be a voluntarily
participant in a vote.
What vote will be put to an American
citizen to decide about whether a person will be able to have freedom to commit
a crime or not? Can anyone imagine the following question put to a citizen, a
good citizen or bad citizen? A criminal should be able to commit crimes sometimes?
Vote yes or no. Therefore, to ask the
question, A criminal should be able to vote is just like asking the question
should a criminal be able to commit crimes sometimes? Vote yes or no. How is not being able to vote a punishment?
Not being able to vote is not punishment.
Don’t agree? Okay, so, not being able to
see a thing is the thing that someone is about to do to you as punishment. All
ready then? Ready not to see anything anymore?
I could go on about what isn’t punishment… no more legs, arms, hands,
feet, hearing, use of sexual organs and anything else that could be thought of,
maybe? Inflicting any of these things is
not punishment.
Any person of age to vote and of age to
be incarnated to jail or prison should continue for whatsoever the reason of
their crimes, for whatsoever the level of the sentence, should not lose their
right to vote. That’s my opinion about crime, jail and voting. Otherwise,
as soon as you get caught not playing by the rules and afterwards thrown in jail
be ready to have your kids taken away, have your friends taken away, your
parents taken away, and anything else the U.S. government pleases to suggest.
I really was thinking that in 2019 America
was way pass the time period of it only takes a suggestion from some
Christian-Puritan-minded-person to end any and all rights a person might have hoped to
have. Isn’t that just one reason why the Puritans were considered criminals where
they were long before they came to America?
Puritans didn’t want to go to jail for anything that they had done but
at the same time Puritans wanted others to go to jail even for things that wasn’t
done.
By the way, Henry Ford was of the Puritan
belief and of the Christian Jehovah’s Witnesses belief- and Henry Ford praised Hitler as
a genius and hero for the German people.
Trouble with Ford’s views was that he fired employees for not agreeing
with him, he hoped that Hitler would be used by God to rule the new world order
of things here on Earth, and he never spent a day in jail, losing the right to
vote, for the senseless murder of union protestors who marched for better
wages.
