Re: Okay with Disenfranchisement

Why are people not bothered by it? I think it's a bit of apathy, mixed with a healthy case of the "don't give a craps", and a dose of "damn furinners". But that's just my opinion.

Hey, bro

Unfortunately, I think it's much more than that at times - fear-mongering, racism, and blatant partisan shenanigans all play a role in this sorry pageant.
