Some say because you are a criminal you lose that right......Oh yeah......Think back to when the Government of the days would send sexually active homosexuals to jail for their activities........They made them criminals with no right to vote should a governemnet with morality be on offer.....
Governments invent bad laws and criminalise people for activities they simply dont like for personal or religious reasons........"In captial letters" Of course they should have the vote.........The Government of the day past and present are dictatorial repressive criminals for not allowing such a basic human right. Regardless of the nature of the crime Voting should be a sacred right to all that believe in a society with a voice and the right of expression for all.......

This is one of the dumbest posts I've ever read
Where are the reasons for stating so emphatically that voting for society's rules, regulations, laws and leaders should be a "sacred" right irrespective of whether the voter has BROKEN and FLOUTED those very laws.
Where is the commonsense and justice in allowing criminals to have ANY say at all in how the rest of us law abiding citizens live our lives? By breaking the law you have relinquished for the term of your imprisonment the right to participate in society, and that includes voting.
Where indeed is there any incentive for criminals to bother being law abiding when you have the politically correct muddle-headed liberal brigade insisting they should have no sanctions imposed on them whatsoever for their crimes against society in case it infringes THEIR (the criminals') human rights?
