Not one of them complained about presenting a ID to get their kids a free laptop for school. NOT ONE.

All required an ID and a $35 deposit unless your kid got ‘free’ lunch.

Most Americans might not read Judge Simpson's ruling, but they might read this. As a Pennsylvania resident, this totally great story made me LOL.

Not to mention, any voter fraud is disenfranchising the rest of us. I think that should be thrown back at them.

Is it racist to require an ID to buy a gun?
Is it racist to require an ID to cash a check?
Is it racist to require an ID to use a credit card?
Is it racist to require an ID to apply for welfare?
Is it racist to require an ID to buy liquor?
Is it racist to require an ID enter a political rally?
Is it racist to require an ID meet with the President?

Why are the above more important than voting?

If you want more support from the Left for Voter ID laws, then start rumors that the GOP is plotting to ‘stuff the ballot box’ and to use early-voting to help elect Republicans, where Voter-ID laws are weak or non-existant.

Voter ID would disenfranchise dead voters. Do you have any idea how difficult it is for a dead person to rise up out of the grave and get an ID? And vampires — they don’t even show up on film, so a photo ID would be blank.

Those most likely to be disenfranchised are also those who most likely need a photo ID in their normal everyday lives, but instead of helping the those folks, the emphasis is always placed on the “well-being” of the politicians. Instead of helping those in need and making a lasting bond in the process of aiding the necessity of photo ID, they would rather push them to curb.
