Stupid evil laws are supported by stupid evil people. This sort of nonsense reduces the respect that reasonable people feel for rational laws and to legitimate government.

Stupid people that defend career criminals are stupid.

Is he a career criminal? The article sure doesn't convince me of that. And in any case, once you serve your time, you should get your rights back, all of them. If a criminal is too dangerous to live as a free man, keep him inside or kill him. And in a just society, punishments should be proportional and fair for any given act, which this is not.

Making a large class of subcitizens seems to me to be really stupid public policy.
