The bill has a Garland Provision.

I might even have wondered whether it was satirical, except that this dumbass is a GOPer.

In a lot of places it is not only allowed but a plus.

Eventually, when we get rid of the P25 nonsense (maybe sixty, seventy years from now), we might be able to rebuild something. But my guess is, the United States of America is bound for the history books. At best we'll fractured groups of states, most of them remnants of red states that cling together, but a complete nation, from sea to shining sea? Doubtful.

It makes me sad, but it is what it is. For the first time, I'm glad I didn't have more grandkids. I fear for my grandson, only 12 years old, but maybe my son and DIL will wise up and get out. I'd like to think all the boys would go, but I'm pretty sure that won't happen. It doesn't matter about me, I'm old, and I won't live long if I lose my benefits.

reaches his early retirement date with his employer. Still trying to convince my only, 18+ year old granddaughter that she can get a better education elsewhere, but as of now, her boyfriend is winning.

Since ignorant Americans elected one to office.

If a teacher has a fucking misdemeanor he or she loses their job! And you think a lying sack of rancid rat shit like Trump should skate for the crimes he's committed? That's a hard NO!

... enlighten me, because that's sure what "People with felonies should never have been disqualified" sounds like.

There should be no blanket law barring every citizen who has been convicted of a felony from holding office, voting, or serving on juries. If you want to disqualify them for cause on a case by case basis, then fine. Go through the process of showing why they should be disqualified from office, voting, or serving on a jury. But barring someone from those things when he’s 60 just because he got caught with a gram over an ounce of weed when he was 20 is lazy, stupid, and wrong.

There’s got to be a point in time where you let someone be an ex-criminal. Otherwise, every felony carries a de facto life sentence.

... I have a convicted felon in my immediate family, but he is not what I would call fully rehabilitated, nor will he ever be, I fear. He's just hard-wired to choose a larcenous path to any goal, and I sure as hell wouldn't vote for him.

DNA or are they going to just eye-ball it to see who is "qualified" for office among the felons available?

As long as we’re going full idiocracy.
