White people who still felt entitled to the labor of black people.
The point was to create a chain gang.  The legal disenfranchisement, at the beginning, was a happy coincidence for them. They weren't going to let those folks vote, anyhow.  They would intimidate and riot to prevent that regardless of what the law said.
When you fast forward to the drug wars, the disenfranchisement is more front and center to the motives.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
