I have some ice

And it´s very very nice

I will put it in my drink

And let it melt and sink

So then it´s ice cold

And its feels like shining gold

When I take a big sip

It feels gd

My heart sunk like a rock into a fright,

I gasped when I saw the sight.

Down those mountains we were to ski,

I felt inside as if I should flee.

I built up the courage and flew down the hill,

I couldn't help but think that I was on my way to the kill.  

The ice going down was like a mirror,

The views had never been clearer.

As I flew down the weathered ice,

My speed did nothing but maximize.

It was an endless day in the fridged cold

Down the icy hills we strolled.

no,

explanation:

because they are likely to use their corrupted thought process to get what they want. not what is better for the another reason they shouldn't is since they abused their rights as a us citizen they should have certain rights stripped away from them as punishment, such as the right to vote. due to the lack of proper behavior exemplified   from their actions , it would be hard for people to trust them because of their criminal record.   either directly (in the case of a referendum or ballot initiative) or indirectly (by choosing lawmakers and law enforcers). in fact, we do have certain minimum, objective standards of responsibility and commitment to our laws that we require people to meet before they are given a role in the solemn enterprise of self-government. people who have committed serious crimes against their fellow citizens don’t meet those standards. and those crimes can include such “non-violent felonies” as, say, treason and espionage, or voter fraud and public corruption, white-collar crime and felonies merely “concerning drugs” — like trafficking in fentanyl-laced heroin and selling it to minors, for example. if you’re not willing to follow the law, then you should not have a role in making the law for everyone else.

yes, it is ethos.
