Instead of complaining about ID laws which help protect legitimate voters (and prevents their votes from being suppressed), how about we complain instead about why nothing is being done to make it easier to get ID's?
- mzw_mzw 10y agoYeah, it's weird how it's a national scandal that people have to present ID to vote, but not to drive a car, rent an apartment, open a bank account, buy cold medicine, get federal assistance, enter a courthouse...
- serge2k 10y agoThe scandal is because certain states have repeatedly tried to pass laws that are totally for preventing voter fraud but just happen to disproportionately target minority voters. Meanwhile the evidence says that voter fraud isn't really a problem. and having to present ID to get cold medicine is fucked up.
- rokosbasilisk 10y agoEven india requires an id to vote.
- mzw_mzw 10y agoDamn that hive of white privilege!
