Edit: Living in Missouri I also know a good amount of people that equate Tucker Carlsons views to fact. They're usually low education and poor but they're here and they vote.

Now let's change the subject to the BS that voter ID is hard to get or too costly. Or that it's designed to harm "only" Democrats. LOLOLOLOL


We could just rely on the court opinions which said that its designed to target minorities with surgical precision

That's the part I really like.

It's designed to target minorities. I wonder how that works. What strange power do these ID cards have.
Are they coated with minority only eating acid, I wonder.

Maybe IDs are created by extraterrestrials, to steal the souls of... only minorities.

The BS is getting deep in here. LOLOLOL

The opposite actually. The voter id laws that republicans passed also shit down polling places in minority communities and selectively restricted ID usage to ones minorities are less likely to use, which is Why they have been struck down in courts all over the country. Theyre about suppression, not an honest attempt to secure the election


This is pure nonsense. All adults are required to carry a state-issued identification card or valid passport at all times in quite a few states including blue states. The very same identification is 100% valid for voting. While drivers licenses range anywhere from $20-$50 depending on the state, they last anywhere from 4-40 years. It's a small price. State ID's are only $10-$30, and typically last anywhere from 8-40 years, and if you fall below a certain income line, most states will provide one free of charge.

Try driving a car without a license, and fail to produce your license. Try engaging in suspicious activity, and not have an ID. Police can and will detain you until they can verify who you are and where you live, which in some cases, can be a very long wait.

The bottom line is that you have to be a citizen in good standing (non-felon) to vote. It is your obligation to prove that you are a citizen in good standing, it is not the obligation of the state to take your word. Any random person can enter the US from anywhere in the world and claim they have "A Constitutional Right To Vote" and they'd be lying. Why are you any more believable than them?

It's not "racist" to secure the integrity of the election system and insure it's citizen-only use, it's key to maintaining a sovereign state. FFS.

Fox News: Fair and Balanced


If you believe anything that any media corporation claims about itself there's probably something wrong with you.

I will say Fox News is probably better than any of the others when it comes to allowing those of a differing viewpoint to be hosts. Chris Wallace, for instance, if Fox News acted like CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, etc. would have been shitcanned ages ago.

Wait just a minute... I've got it.

Id cards must be coated with undetectable ions, that ONLY react to the chemical makeup of minority skin. That MUST be it. :/
