  • Wow! No More Criminals!

    Why didn't we think of this before!

    Hmmm... the law says that convicted felons can't vote it says nothing about "justice involved persons." Sounds like the Dems are trying to expand their voter base.

    I'm always still in trouble again

      What exactly is a justice involved person? A lawyer, court clerk?

        Nonsense like this is going to put the Babylon Bee out of business.
        Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
        But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
        Than a fool in the eyes of God

          And to think, we once thought that "1984" was just a science fiction novel. He was just a bit early on the timing prediction.

          "Justice involved person" sounds like a name for someone who works in the courts, not someone who is sentenced by them.

          What are they going to call their homeless? "Asphalt Involved Persons?"

            "Crime" is a pejorative term. They need to come up with something more innocuous.

                  "Transnormative behavior" has a little more cachet, I think.

                      I like "legally challenged" so it sounds like it isn't their fault
