The Right to Vote

Every US Citizen should have the right to vote... I don't think the should banish you from being able to vote because of past criminal actions... It is wrong to do that, why because you can be elected into a political office with a felony... Why should we not allow Felons to vote?? With dumb laws like that shrinks the amount of voters that can and will vote, this country was founded on the power of the people and in my opinion you can't have the power of the people when you tell some they have no right in voting on leaders or even raising taxes in your town... That in my opinion is wrong your telling someone he has no right to voice his opinion with a vote if he doesn't agree with a possible leader or maybe even that new levy your town is trying to get passed... I do agree that in order to be eligible to vote as a felon you should have completed your entire sentence... Voting is a right given to us by the US Constitution don't let the government try and limit our rights that are given to us... If you do what was the sense on the US Revolutionary War...

Freedom Of Speech

I am proud to be living in the United States were my rights are protected within the constitution of the United States... One of the most well know protected rights is Freedom Of Speech, with this right I am aloud to talk about anything I please as long as it is not causing harm to any person... Some people may not like when people post dumb things and they may think it is annoying and tell them to stop... Well you are not aloud to tell them to stop because they are protected by law in the First amendment Of the Constitution of the United States of America Stating that there is Freedom of speech... Now I do agree people use this to there advantage a lot, but there is nothing I or anyone else can say to stop them all we can do is ignore them and hope maybe one day they will stop... I don't like hearing some of the crap they nag about on TV or what I hear when I am out but hey they have there right and I am going to respect that because I am glad to have been born in a country were we have such freedoms that are taken advantage of daily....
