Should prisoners be allowed to vote?

[rpm]

Do you think prisoners should be allowed to vote?

 

[RonSwanson]

Absolutely not.

Only a failing ruling party, allowing the the proverbial rape of their fellow citizens ( in their desperation to stay in power), will entertain that idea.

 

[Pineapple Smurf]

no, you gave up your right to live within society yourself
also no DSTV
bring back slave labour, worked well in the old days building roads etc

 

[DanDango]

NO!

 

[geezer]

Absolutely not!

 

[bwana]

Hard no.

Makes perfect sense though. A rapist gets to vote but, as a permanent resident, I don't.

Uneducated people should also not be allowed to vote

 

[CB40]

Definately not

 

[Fre3kill]

HELL NO, you gave up your rights when you decided to break the law.

 

[Drifter]

Nee, Fok, Nee!!!!

Uneducated people should also not be allowed to vote

wtf dude

Depends on the definition of "prisoner".

If held in prison but awaiting trial: yes. That person's guilt has not yet been proven.
If convicted and serving a prison sentence: absolutely not.

 

[MirageF1]

Hello no!

 

[goldenarrow]

NO. Prisoners have no rights.

Vote for what?

 

[Creag]

The only thing they should be allowed to vote for is the electric chair, rope or guillotine.

 

[Sensorei]

There should be another voting structure where everyone's vote counts to some extent, but only tax payers should be allowed to vote on where their tax money goes.

 

[FNfal]

"Removed from society" That says it all , why is there a discussion ? .

 

[xrapidx]

Depends on the crime.
