How Is It Racist To Show ID To Vote?

I will never understand this. Someone please enlighten me.

Our illustrious Attorney General is taking North Carolina and/or Texas to court for this.

I don't think it's racist at all.

Those who don't have a DL or other pic ID should have the opportunity get one.

There should be a state or local voting ID card issued at no cost to whomever wants to vote.

You, or at least I do, have to show my paper, county issued voting card when I go to vote.

Your supposed to show proof of age for buying smokes or liquor. You need ID to check a book out of a library(if anybody does that anymore).

How many other more trivial things than voting do you need ID for?

here in ultra liberal new jersey we just walk in tell them our name, sign the book and voter slip of paper... and vote,... the only check is that last years signature is supposed to be checked in the book...

now in our little community it takes me about a half hour to an hour to vote,.. cause I know most of the poll workers and the regular vote challengers... so I doubt I could vote fro someone else.. let alone twice..

but in the cities.. as long as you know the voters name and they don't check the signatures to well.. you could vote for anyone who hasn't already voted..

Wouldn't an ID be required to open a bank account to direct deposit a welfare check? Is that racist?

I am not positive, but I think the welfare checks are deposited on a card now..

many of the others use check cashing facilities,.. where an affirmative ID is required.. when you open an account..

in other words,.. if the checks aren't bouncing,.. you can be who ever you want... but many mom and pop check cashing places are a thing of the past... and the corporate ones want several real ID's to open an account..

Annie worked at our local check cashing place.. she is still well respected (and feared) in the poor parts of town... :shock: :lol:

In Spring Hill, TN, I have to show my driver's license to purchase a can of spray paint at the local Home Depot.

Since I'm an ancient person, I think I'll start whining about "Senior" discrimination. Maybe AG Holder will file suit against Tennessee for me.
