The Logic Of Not Voting ?

[prime_time_willy]

There's a lot of people that don't want to give their vote to neither Trump or Hillary and it seems to be some tension about it. Especially within the black community. The ones that are voting for Hillary are saying they need to cast their vote for Hillary to keep Trump out of office or the country will be going backwards again.

I personally feel that if you don't want to vote than don't because it's your right to have a choice. But you also lose the right to complain as well since you didn't participate.

Thoughts?

Really truthfully they were not going to vote anyway. Everybody I know that votes on the regular is at least going to vote for the local election. And the impulse will be to vote for the presidential race anyway.

But you also lose the right to complain as well since you didn't participate

Exactly

If you pay taxes how do you lose the right to complain?

Part of my issue is that I don't understand why people feel like they can't vote for anyone other than Trump or Clinton. Vote for whatever candidate on the ballot you feel will best lead the country. If you don't feel like any of them can...then write in a candidate that you think can get the job done.

Black folks are like fuck Clinton I'm just not voting for anybody in the election.. Meanwhile, there are many white folks who said they don't like Trump straight jumping on his side all of a sudden. Even "lying" Ted Cruz endorsed Donald Trump. White folks are loyal to the Republican party while people are telling black folks not to be loyal to the Democratic party. Wonder how many Hilary haters are going to vote Trump.

I fully support it because the Democrats need to feel some pain and be out of power on the federal and state level for taking black people for granted for the past 50 years.

What's the logic then fam ?

I'm not even trying to knock another point of view, just trying to understand it.

Voting locally >>>

If you're trying to get out of jury duty at the federal or state level, your best chance of doing so is by never registering to vote or canceling your current voter registration. As important as the right to vote is, many Americans opt out of voting to avoid being called for jury duty.

Black people don't have anywhere near as much clout or power as white people in this country, so stop acting like they're equivalent. White people determine the president year after year. Black people didn't get the half breed into office, white people did.

Do you engage people period?

To answer the OP, the logic behind voting is, it is MY CHOICE AND RIGHT to decide if I want to vote or not. There has to be a candidate that I deem worthy enough to spend time out of day to go out and vote for. If there is no candidate that fits the bill, I will not vote, simple logic.

Then there's the personal accountability that comes with voting. If I vote for president X, and president X bombs a foreign land killing civilians, women and children, I am partially responsible. And I refuse to have that kind of blood on my hands.

To quote the great Dead Prez:

Yo, you expect me to vote for the lesser of two evils?

NEVER!

It’s more like the evil of two lessers.

That’s like sayin’ – M! Choose your oppressor!

Pick one! Jeffery Dahmer or Hannibal Lecter

You want Crack, Coke, Pepsi or Dr. Pepper?

THEY ALL FUCKED UP and neither one of ‘em better

Cuz Crack is like a Democrat

Cocaine – Republican

Marijuana – Independent Party

SAME GOVERNMENT!

You really think your vote counts?

Ask my folk down in Florida didn’t they straight THROW they shit out!

And them crackas act innocent,

KNOWING they depend on this

Benefit from HUSH money from big businesses

MONEY is the president!

...

If CONGRESS can’t make PROGRESS

Let’s change the PROCESS -

NO MORE TOMS RUNNIN’ FOR OFFICE!
