Progs are easily the least likeable people on earth.

Vast majority of Americans approve of voter ID laws.

75% support Voter ID according to polls

I am asking every Dim on the board how the Georgia Law prevents blacks from voting, Why no response........hmmmm??

The truth is that the Democrats know that they can't steal elections without Voter Fraud

MLB is committed to serving the party and nothing else matters. Therefore, they are moving the All Star Game in order to serve the party.

The Commissioner of Baseball needs to be open, and tell the people "If you are a conservative, we don't want you at the games, we don't want you to listen to the broadcasts, we don't want you to buy the merchandise. There are plenty of other things for you to wear, things for you to do, programs on the radio. Get outside, if you like baseball, watch church and industrial league games. But here in Big Leagues, we cater to the Left exclusively"

 

[RealDave]

We get it, think and do as we do or else.

MLB is not for voter suppression. I guess that you are.

Explain exactly how the law prevents black voters from voting.

It erects hurdles that most people don't face. That is voter suppression.

Republicans figured Trump lost because too many poorer people voted. They aim to change that.

What hurdles? And how do those hurdles hurts blacks more than anyone else? And be careful, because if you say or imply blacks are too stupid to vote like anyone else you will be the biggest fucking racist on this board. Now go!

 

[MarathonMike]

I am hooked. But that may soon change if they start supporting BLM.

I'm with you, I can blow off the NBA but I really enjoy my baseball.

Well ,I stopped watching Football when those filthy thugs started kneeling.

MLB hasn't caved yet to BLM like the NBA and NFL.

Democrats want to suppress Republican votes as well, Dave. Why do you think that President Trump was deplatformed? To deny information to the voters, and give the advantage to low-info voters (D's)

But this really isn't about who gets suppressed and who doesn't. This is about MLB deciding only one party is worthy of its support and if you aren't a leftist, watch something else. Sort of unprecedented. Maybe its time to eliminate stadium subsidies and financing them with tax exempt bonds? If MLB and other pro sports outfits want to be partisan, let them pay their own way?

Its sad that it came to this but economics is the only language that resonates with the right wing.

The right wing won't be losing any money. The MLB will. The businesses will. They are punishing Americans and they will not forget.

Right wingers don't own businesses? Yeah...you're stupid.

They do. People react badly to abuse and intimidation. Keep it up. In the long run the Right will make out like a bandit.

The right already tried that on 1/6...attacking the Capitol, murdering a police officer, Most Americans are of the opinion we dodged a bullet by not re-electing your blob.

Explain exactly how the law prevents black voters from voting.

Not sure it does. It does prevent someone from handing a bottle of water to people standing in line to vote. Its ridiculous. Especially when it's well documented that Georgia has often sat up a voting system that has very little opportunity for early voting and long lines in black communities on election day itself.

October 2020 " Still waiting three hours after she showed up to vote in Savannah on Wednesday, Khani Morgan, 75, wasn’t taking any chances with her health months after suffering a stroke: she wore a mask and a plastic shield that covered her entire face. " 3 hours in line to vote.

History, mistrust spurring Black early voters in Georgia

SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) — They came by the thousands to vote early, descendants of slaves, children of the civil rights era and other Georgians standing in line for hours when all could have been somewhere else.

apnews.com

June 2020 "Voters across Georgia experienced long lines at the polls and widespread issues with a new $104 million voting system in the state's Tuesday primary.

In the city of Atlanta, voters waited upwards of three hours at some polling places as social distancing measures decreased the number of voting machines and people inside a polling place at one time." 3 hours in line to vote.

The Rays put a BLM logo on the back of the pitching mound last year for about a week. Their ratings dropped about 30% and they quickly stopped it.

If Coca Cola is opposed to Voter ID laws then they should also condemn Mexico and Canada's Voter ID laws and the Voter ID laws in Blue states.
BTW, the USSC has ruled several times that Voter ID laws are legal and constitutional.
Screw Coke.
Boycott their products.

False. The law in no way prevents comfort stations with food or water. It does prevent either party from handing out treats in exchange for votes. Any idiot can understand this.

That's a beautiful story btw. Brings a tear to the eye. Probably complete bullshit, but hey, whatever. Everyone dealt with the same situation regardless of race. The Georgia Law requires photo i.d. now for mail in ballets. In the last election those who voted in person were discriminated against because they had to have an i.d. Mail in ballets had no such requirement.

Are you in favor of people who vote in person being discriminated against? Think carefully.

Politics gets injected into baseball over something that doesn't apply to MLB at all, thus more division is added to the country, it is a sign of authoritarianism creeping in that over time transfer the power to the government.

America dying one piece at a time.
