| Message | I know it may seem radical, but many countries on Terra and in the Real world allow criminals to vote. Criminals are still people and they should keep their right to vote. Jailed people should have a say in the political process, but they cannot & should not be able to candidate. Any worries that they'd vote for someone who would legalise crime are plain & unneeded, the percentage of people in Jail is very small. |
