The issue with voter ID is voter suppression. Some Republicans don’t want certain people to vote, which has been on display in this thread over the course of the conversation. Whether or not that desire arises from racial animus depends on the individual. You injected the issue into a discussion about racial representation, not I.
That's BS and you know it. That is an excuse the left uses so they can keep their base in line and the need to cheat to win open.
Yeah giving everyone an ID is fine with me, did you not read the entire discussion and just jump in at the end?
The Senate has abandoned the idea to dismiss impeachment because McConnel got cocky and thought he had votes secured. Now at least 5 gop senators are saying they want the witnesses allowed. Sounds like Pelosi got exactly what she wanted. The DoJ Stonewall of sending Giulianis buddies testimony and evidence to the House was broke today. He was buddied up with half the GoP Senate and all of Trump's inner circle. He saved copies of all his interactions and conversations. Never trust sleazeballs to do your dirty work, they snitches.
It's being promoted as superior? They running ads now saying that mixed race is the best! Racists say the funniest shit.
Yea, we all know the GoP would never create barriers like poll taxes, closing down stations, posting armed enforcers, lying about the date, etc.... to keep people from voting. It's not like we had to create a voting rights act to punish racist southern states.
I’m not on record either way. Can see both sides. Seems like a lot of technical questions about what types of crimes, length of sentence, and such. If a stadium of people watched you rape and eat ten babies we probably don’t need your voice in the political process. But on the other hand even really bad people can have an occasional good idea and one vote isn’t going to decide an entire election, so who knows. Seems complicated and worthy of a lengthy discussion not available to us in this limited forum format.
Taking police off the streets and turning them into state militaries ruined policing. A large part of why smaller communities are "safer" is because the police are well known and approachable. Being a reactive presence that just chases down crime doesn't work. The prosecutors are so bogged down with stupid cases they can't bother with most of them. It's a lot like teaching, underpaid and the profession is now hated because of sensationalized media freaking out over bad employees. Of course when it's police screwing up people usually die not fail a class.
California needs more people like this.Thank you for your service.
Then why aren’t you on board the Trump train? Why did you vote for Hilary? She is the epitome of being owned by big money.
Start firing them up. This is why we need guns. This is happening in quite a few large cities now. Shoot them until they stop moving and there will no need for the police. They won't do it again.
Sounds exactly what the left has done the past few elections. Funny how you chose just what the left did as a deflective response.
She is. With her we were getting more of the same old drudgery, granted. But Trump is a classic demagogue attributing all of society’s ills to marginalized minority scapegoats and claiming he alone has the answers. Anyone who’s studied history knows that’s demonstrably more dangerous.
Well then it is a good thing that one person commits all of the crimes in America.
False, Police have not been militarized yet. That's a common fallacy spread by many on the left to divide and keep their base in line and disrupt the American way of life. You need to study history more and look at modern countries like China, Venezuela, and a few others to see what real militarized police forces look like.
Dion's boy Bernie wants the immigrant Boston Bomber to still be able to vote from prison. Can't wait to see that commercial.
Whoa now, wait a gosh darn minute here, I know that one was directed at me. Nowhere did I ever say I “don’t want homeless voting”. I said succinctly that many of the homeless and destitute are not likely to have the wherewithal to find a polling station to vote. Nowhere does that imply I don’t want them voting. I want everybody regardless of which race, creed, religion, sex, made up gender, or socioeconomic status, who is legally qualified to vote under our laws to vote. I just want them to be able to prove they can vote first.
You're so controlled and brainwashed you don't even know who is saying what. But you still provide some good laughs for me.
We all know the Dems wouldn’t harvest ballots, mysteriously “lose” boxes of ballots while being transported, or left behind at some strange location. We all know they wouldn’t go around to elderly and homeless people preying in their diminishing mental capacities to collect votes for Dems. We all know they wouldn’t resist purging voter rolls or would allow and human form whether breathing or not cast a vote because they don’t have to prove they are who they say they are.
