Bernie wants murderers, rapists, and thieves to vote for him. Among others.....

Or, maybe they could halt the system that incarcerates people en masse for the purposes of private profit?
We have a great many state & federal prisons.
And the greatest increase was due legislation Bill Clinton signed into law.
Yet there's no evidence that he benefited financially from this.

We do have a problem with a legal system corrupted by money, but
it's primarily by lawyers rigging the system to cost as much as possible.
We have too many people in prison because that's what leaders &
voters want. And they're too wedded to the fiction that massive
incarceration is the best solution to crime. We need more of what
might be called an "outpatient program"....or "outfelon program".

A lot of people have some objection to this.
It's hard to say whether we'd get better
or worse voting quality from inmates.
But why bother?
It's part of their punishment.

Of course, some might believe that letting
them vote would give their party more power.
Cynical, eh.

Identitarian nonsense. Nobody is forcing anyone to commit crimes. Maybe criminals should, you know, try not committing crimes. :tearsofjoy: It's proven to keep the vast majority of the population out of prison after all!

What! You're advocating that people be personally responsible for their actions? You tyrant!!:D

O, your post resembles the fake or distorted news churned out from fake news factory of Mr. Narendra Modi in India.
You need serious remedial training on what's fake or real.


Of course, I can give you the benefit of the doubt that it's a fake Bernie saying all that.

Or maybe he wants people to be treated as people?
Treating people like people would be better served by developing more
productive programs to both punish & train them to be better humans.
Giving them the vote is at best useless pandering.

It is fake. The actual test that goes with that picture
is "You folks all remember me! I'm old, ah, old..."

In the next, he is shuffling off stage, still making that
same gesture mumbling, " ...old, ah,yes, I'm..."

Maybe he's a robot. Admittedly I didn't look for the extension cord sticking out of his pant leg.
