MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Alabama Attorney General Troy King has
proposed an ambitious package of crime fighting bills he wants the
Legislature to pass during the regular session that begins Feb. 3.
The package includes a measure that King says would resolve
confusion over which convicted felons are allowed to vote under
Alabama law. The bill by Rep. Randy Wood of Anniston would prohibit
all convicted felons from voting unless their rights are formally
restored by the Alabama Board of Pardons and Paroles.
Other bills would provide for stricter monitoring of the
activities of convicted sex offenders and make cock fighting a
felony offense in Alabama.
Another bill would require hospitals and other health care
providers to report to law enforcement officers when they treat
someone for a gunshot wound.

well mr king can not be all bad can he mr. mike. he knows animal cruelty is one of the warning signs often missed with mass murders, serial killers etc. so you will know mr. mike, i can tell you were never really worried about the other crimes before he wanted to stop cock fighting.  we vote for the state attorney general.

He is making a killing of this Law ,only if it passes ,is he even from the south ,he looks like a yanky to me ,we need to vote him out of office ,did we vote him in or was he appointed ,eather way when he does run ,i will work hard to help keep him out ,i bet he probly deer hunts ,and kills deer ,cuts there head off puts the prize rack on his wall ,or duck hunts ,and kills them duck ,telling people he hunts for the meat ,im sure he has plenty food without hunting ,but i think its his God Giving right to hunt ,if he wants to ,but idf he does he dont have any rights trying to make cock fighting a felony .

Your right Tide Fan ,but that want make him any $$$ PETA pays good money for getting these Laws passed ,they probley told him if he gets it passed they will help him ,if he runs for office ,if he wants to pass a law ,he should be looking into all the charty bingo ,there all over walker county ,looks like a Gambling house to me ,you can play $5 a play and win 30,000 dollars if ya get lucky ,they even adevertize on TV ,i bet there is a lot of drug money there ,i no the Law works for them ,and not the people of Alabama .

troy king should work at Macy’s. i heard they were looking for a window dresser.get serious troy, lookin to keep your name in the paper? so was whetstone.

At least the lawyers won’t be out of work.

Cock Fighting????? Felony…Come on…why even worry with it?? If he wanted to impress me.he would try and put together a REAL DUI law that had some teeth…If you refuse a breath test..mandatory 10 year DL revocation..and if caught driving after that, make it a felony..that would make some folks think twice….this junk we have in place now is nothing. If you kill someone while DUI…Mandatory 20 year sentences or worse that they actually have to serve…no good time,probation, parole…blah blah…If you rape or sodimize a child…Death sentence.
