Liberal Court Uses “Racism” Ploy to Grant Vote to Felons

Liberalism is the ideology of the criminal. While others create, liberals use force to expropriate. For moral cover, they cloak themselves in altruism (which in itself can be a moral illness, as Ayn Rand made a career of explaining). But there is absolutely zero moral difference between breaking into someone’s house and stealing money to buy crack, and voting for bureaucrats who will use equally coercive measures to steal money to finance the progressive agenda.

It is no coincidence that progressives are wrong on every moral issue. They side with parasites against the productive, degenerates against the decent, abortionists against babies, terrorists against civilians, savages against civilization, animals against humans. This is because, having built their entire ideology on a foundation of theft and coercion, liberals are morally depraved by definition.

Consequently it comes as no surprise that criminals overwhelmingly support Democrats. Even less surprising are liberal efforts to extend the vote to felons:

A federal appeals court on Tuesday tossed out Washington’s law banning incarcerated felons from voting, finding the state’s criminal-justice system is “infected” with racial discrimination.

The surprising ruling, by a three-judge panel of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in Seattle, said the law violates the 1965 Voting Rights Act by disenfranchising minority voters. …

[State Attorney General Rob] McKenna said the ruling, if upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court, would apply to all 48 states that ban voting by felons in prison or on supervision.

The “racism” ploy is predictable not only because it is the default fallback position of moonbats who can find no other way to justify their assault on society, but because blacks are far more likely to be felons, as a result of committing crimes at a grotesquely disproportionate rate.

This is a tribute to the success welfare policy has had in destroying the black family. Thanks to a government that pays generously for the production of babies out of wedlock, the black illegitimacy rate is an appalling 70%. Children raised in single-parent households are far more likely to become criminals (PDF).

Full voting rights for felons will close a perfect vicious cycle: Criminals vote for Democrats, who devote more money to welfare programs, producing more illegitimate children who grow up to be criminals.

Already we have criminals running the government; they are deliberately dismantling our civilization as we watch.
