The House of Flying Guillotines

A Sasquatch love-slave, chicano-futurist vanguard, and paper mache Moctezuma, creator of hallucinogenic architecture, psychedelic warfare, dialectical polemics, cis-yphean crises, dadaist provocation, surrealist ramblings, slave revolts, radical leftist politics, apocryphal grimoires, the half-remembered warmth of dead lovers, and sublime fever dreams.

But mostly pictures of cats, women of color, tattoos, butts, punk rock, hip-hop and movies I like.

So, what exactly about being a convicted felon means you shouldn’t be able to vote?

there is no good reason that isn’t lying to oneself when we consider who is targeted for felony convictions and when you look at WHO is being disenfranchised. felon is such a loaded word because so many weird things can be felonies. and the fact remains that 80% of those convicted of felonies are convicted of non-violent drug offenses. usually MARIJUANA. but for smoking weed or selling some drugs (which our nation does all the time) or for being addicted, you cannot vote. but you know… we know who is being disenfrachised most. Black votes. because they are being targeted most. and we know historically the Black vote has been something this country has never wanted to indulge. they can no longer just KILL us in the polls like 60 years ago so instead, they gotta do this. bureaucracy and law, the great ways to make things seem so fair and equal.
