    Felons are, by definition, are people who have engaged in serious criminal activity, and have 'broken' the social contract, and have thereby given up their right to participate in a civil society. Besides it isn't as if there isn't a process to go through to restore their civil rights.

      I was trolling A.S.

      most states have laws like this though, so singling out virginia is pretty stupid. It's totally constitutional btw.

        A process which is race-unrelated, I might add.

          Does the process in Mississippi seem reasonable to you? Does the system in Virginia which is denying that Mr. Anderson guy his right to vote seem fair?

            This is a swing set. It will oscillate with the period of the pendulum, bouncing up and down.

            It will also sway from side to side.

            The velocity of the box should be the same as the tangential velocity in the opposite direction.
            Quit calling me Albert. And you didn't realize the box would move from side to side until after HC pointed out that assuming the box won't move is stupid. So you fail.

            • Yes it is fair. It is evenly applied.

              Is it right? Maybe. Maybe not. I don't really care enough to decide.

                      Taxation without representation should be avoided, IMHO.

                      • That's nice rhetoric but they were represented until they were convicted of crimes.

                        And we tax legal aliens. They aren't represented. Clearly they shouldn't be represented because we would just get people coming in with visas voting to affect our elections.

                        So where do we draw the line? It's an open question. I won't pretend to have the objective answer.

                          Actually, I did work out the correct answer.

                          All HC said is look at the momentum.

                          You guys aren't interested in admitting that maybe Ben isn't so stupid after all.

                              They were convicted of crimes then served their time. You're punishing them beyond their sentence.

                                Repeating a question doesn't change the answer.
