I am not speaking about people locked in jail or prison, or on parole, only those who have served their debt to society. Can we not agree thatthey should be able exercise their right to vote once their punishment has been met?

Not in our system. They knew the consequences prior to committing the offense and decided to do so anyway. They get to live with their decision. It is in fact a part of their punishment.
Am I right in assuming that you're also opposed to sex offender databases?
