Kentucky and Iowa are the two states that disenfranchise people convicted of all felonies for life. (Virginia law provides for this as well, but recent governors have mostly gotten around it with executive orders.

I guess it's a bit more clear from the map than the wiki text; I assume it's Iowa, Kentucky, and Virginia; Florida's the same color but they're changing the law to "Circumstantial".

ETA: Yeah, my wiki-skimming skills weren't great.

Not for anyone with no explanation for their own goddamn words, apparently.

It's random because it's not punishment handed to most Americans for the same offence, just ones living in a couple of states.

Even in the state where getting busted for drugs worth over $500 is a felony, it becomes random in that there's no standard. A kilo of pot could be judged to be worth $400 and four joints worth $600, depending on who's calling the shots and who was busted. If you're white and daddy is a prosecuting attorney, there's a real good chance that pot won't be worth very much.

You're mixing standards as you speak. Drug crimes are not judged on what someone says the drug is worth. They are judged by weight of the drug. See that way it ain't fucking random.

You posted a piece on KENTUCKY's felony disenfranchisement. That's what I was discussing. KENTUCKY's felony disenfranchisement. Not another fucking state, not a different subject.

I got busted with seven pounds of marijuana. Not $5,000 worth of marijuana. Not $10,000 worth, not $250 worth. Pounds. Not dollars. I've never read story where anyone was charged with a dollar amount's worth of dope. Never.

Obfuscate shit all you fucking want I'm done with this and both of you.

As for explaining anyfuckingthing to you, Flint, just choose a bunch of random words, you understand random, don't you? Oh, wait...Apparently you don't.
