Opinion of "tough on crime, but woke" policies?

Massive Freedom.

I'm extremely woke, and know what's up.   But also tough on crime, especially if it is violent and recurring.   Bill Clinton had it right.  

LOL at Democrats thinking that ex-felons (or criminals in general) are potential liberal/progressive votes and trying to restore their voting rights.    Even the brown/black ones are probably the biggest Trump supporters amongst the minority community and more than likely harbor authoritarian streaks if given the opportunity to exercise their collective political muscle.   The white ones no doubt are rightists.  I know this personally, because of family members.

I'm still down with restoring voting rights even if they're voting against me.  It's the right thing to do.

Yup.  I was specifically referring to those subset of "Machiavellian" Dems who only want their voting rights restored based solely on political expediency, and not based on ethics/morality.    If they exist.

It was a bit of straw man.
