Civil Rights was real big on my mom side, education, starting your own business because they was business owners and land owners. I remember my great aunt used to call my mother every election to make sure she voted.
but that's not the only reason why i vote the other reasons is to show respect to my ancestors, there are people who i do not know but was killed, lynched, beat, humiliated, terrorize for me to vote so to show respect to my elders before me, i vote to let them know that what they did for us as a people was not in vain.
when i was younger i used to believe that ? that my vote dont count that there are people controlling ? .
what a bunch of ? , ON A LOCAL LEVEL i KNOW DAMN SURE THAT MY VOTE ? COUNTS, YOU ? THAT COMPLAIN ABOUT THE Judicial SYSTEM, well that's what your ass get because every two years there's are laws that you have to vote on, you vote for Judges on the courts, vote on school issues, vote on taxes, and vote on LAWS.
YOUR VOTE ? COUNTS and if your county pass a law against your ass then you deserve what you get for not voting.
i started voting when i was 18 and i only missed one state. local election.
THIS LAW RIGHT HERE THAT MEANS ALOT , 3 Strikes law needs to be re-write and i am voting YES on PROP 36, it's a start but no the end of all to make sure the 3 strike law will only be for serious violent offenders, killers, ? , kidnappers, gang bangers who murder ect......

Proposition 36, a Change in the "Three Strikes Law" Initiative, is on the November 6, 2012 ballot as an initiated state statute.
If approved, Proposition 36 will modify elements of California's "Three Strikes" Law, approved by the state's voters in 1994. In 2004, voters rejected Proposition 66, which like the 2012 measure was an attempt to change some aspects of the original "Three Strikes" Law.
Proposition 36, specifically, will if enacted:
Revise the three strikes law to impose life sentence only when the new felony conviction is "serious or violent".
Authorize re-sentencing for offenders currently serving life sentences if their third strike conviction was not serious or violent and if the judge determines that the re-sentence does not pose unreasonable risk to public safety.
Continue to impose a life sentence penalty if the third strike conviction was for "certain non-serious, non-violent sex or drug offenses or involved firearm possession".
Maintain the life sentence penalty for felons with "non-serious, non-violent third strike if prior convictions were for ? , murder, or child molestation."
If Proposition 36 is approved by voters, approximately 3,000 convicted felons who are currently serving life terms under the Three Strikes law, whose third strike conviction was for a nonviolent crime, will be able to petition the court for a new, reduced, sentence. Reducing the sentences of these current prisoners could result in saving the state somewhere between $150 to $200 million a year.
Altogether, about 8,800 prisoners are currently serving life terms in California prisons under the 1994 law.[4]
24 states have a "Three Strikes"-type law.
O.K. lets see if your vote counts, what type of system is the Local/State/Federal-Government of The United States of America? -
no ? , more like welcome to janklow and his never ending sarcasm. no one else on this site makes it his job to be so caustic everytime he posts.
was just a bad joke. was just being stupid.
again was just being stupid/jocular. but why so serious?
ok, yeah technically maybe. so let's just say the tv evangelicals from the religious right then.
that "right?" was not rhetorical btw. that was an honest question. i honestly am not familiar with black churches actively and publicly endorsing obama like the religious right is doing with romney. some are even disturbed by obama's support of ? and ? marriage. -
