I'm not entirely against disenfranchising felons, however if'n you're going to do that, you shouldn't be counting them as part of the voting age population.

You say you're not entirely against it, can you think of a good argument FOR disenfranchising felons?

Murderers, burglars, and r*pists should definitely lose their right to vote.

Oh, and all the "good 'ol boys" in the deep south that are felons that everyone lets walk free because society likes them so much? They should just suffer the death penalty.
