On September 10, the North Carolina Supreme Court issued a brief order, saving the registration of certain voters who registered between August 23 and September 3. A state trial court on August 23 had allowed ex-felons who are on parole or probation to register to vote. On September 3 the state court of appeals had reversed that order. The main issue isn’t settled yet, but the September 10 order means that people who registered in reliance on the trial court’s order will not have their voter registration cancelled. See this story.
I don’t see a problem with ex-felons and parolees or probationers to vote. They served their time (debt) to society and should have their liberties restored.
There should not be any ex-felons. All felons should be executed. It would save taxpayers most of the money being spent on prisons ,and make the streets safer . It’s how things were done in the early days of this country and throughout most of history around the world.
We need to get away from the stupid recently invented idea that the death penalty should be rare. It should be carried out within a couple weeks of sentencing, for any felony, in the town square, and misdemeanors should be punished with a sentence to a chain gang , cleaning up the roadsides.
Is Paul back to trolling?
Is Don on acid?
How many *felons* convicted via false evidence
— esp by racist cops / govt lawyers
— esp in high profile crimes
— esp in olde slave states like NC ???
@Sam…. It’s costs more to execute than to house for life…. but the ignorant and uneducated are predominate in society…. so I guess you’re no different than the average dipshit.
Not to mention the all valid points touch on by Demo Rep.
“Aiden” is a communist.
“Aiden” is using a fake name and IP anonymizer.
The foundation of another PURGE LIST???
It costs next to nothing to execute someone. The cost of reusable rope or bullet comes to mind, and maybe 15 minutes pay for the executioner. If the execution is public, as it should be, there are some minor additional crowd control costs. These could be mitigated by taking advantage of already planned events with existing security, such as halftime at football games for example.
The high cost of execution as presently carried out is due to the endless appeals and associated legal costs. Those should be eliminated, and executions should be carried out quickly, maybe immediately after sentence is passed, or at most within two weeks.

NO relief for innocent folks KILLED by statists >>> NOOO death penalty stuff.
How many innocent people get killed by criminals? If a tiny number of innocent people get executed, it’s well worth all the innocent lives it would save by preventing crimes, as well as all the money it would save tax extortees.
