i never said crack was harmless, nor did i say it shouldn't be a felony. what i implied was that cocaine should be treated that same as crack, and it's not. and, gee, coincidentally, cocaine is used more by whites and crack is used more by blacks. so i just wonder about the legislative wisdom there.

as for homosexuality, it may shock you to find out that i have positions on issues other than disenfranchisement, and i happen to believe that homosexuality and all homosexual acts should be legal. this position has nothing to do with disenfranchisement.

when exactly did i imply that i was a supporter of ever stupid law in existance other than the disenfranchisement penalty?

as for examples of gay disenfranchisement, there aren't many examples because felony sentences for homosexual activity are rare, as you pretty much have to catch someone in the act. however, it does happen. bowers v. hardwick, the georgia sodomy case from 1986, pertains to one example. i don't think disenfranchisement came up in any of those proceedings, but it happened automatically.
