Pure bullshit.You have to have a birth certificate, which many don't have one....So they need to first apply for their birth certificate and pay for it....if they have one...many without govt ids are the elderly, who were born at home with midwives and don't or can't easily get a birth certificate.... but once they have their birth certificate, then they need to take off time from their hourly paid job, losing income that they need every penny of....to get to the DMV to get the ID....but they don't have a car or drive or know someone who can also take off work, to drive them there, if no friends can do that, then they need to take more time off work to catch a few buses to the DMV and a few more bus rides to get them to their work.....IF their employer even gives them permission to take the time off work to do this....What kind of hurdle is it to get a FREE photo ID snail mailed to you just for asking and sending in the required documents?When 90% of the of the people who do not own cars and drive are poor citizens of color, whether intentional or not, they are the group of people given hurdles to jump, in order to vote while it is EASY PEASY for those who drive and already have a gov't issued driver's licence with photo to use as voter I'D with no hurdles to jump at all...This is why the Democrats oppose Voter ID laws; it might get in their way of stealing elections!
Dead People And Illegal Immigrants Are Being Registered To Vote All Over America
But but but asking people for an ID to vote is racist
So EASY PEASY for those who drive
HURDLES for those who don't....
This "We have too many stupid black people for Voter ID laws" nonsense is wearing too thin.
Blacks are not such idiots that they cant manage to get themselves a FREE photo ID.
Then you have States like Alabama who right after they passed voter I'D Laws, they closed half of their State DMV offices, MOSTLY where the black residing citizens of their States lived....making it even harder for those who don't drive and have no means to get there....
It's easy PEASY for blacks, whites, etc that already drive because this group of people have to do NOTHING AT all, in order to vote....they already have GVT IDs.
I think it is easier for the young to get proper gov't issued photo IDs and some day, everyone will end up having one due to our mindset after 9/11 and new laws were put in place even in the private sector that forces people in to a society of gov't I'D`d people....but those with decades on this Earth have gone their whole lives without ever needing a gov't issued photo I'd....shoot, even my first driver's licence did not have a photo on it.....
Since 9/11 this crap with needing "Govt PAPERS/ID" in order to live a full life as citizens started, but before 9/11 we had freedom from this gov't over reach.
Sure!
Tell that to courts and judges who have denied the republicans pushing to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of citizens of their votes....through these voter I'd laws, and cutting early voting days, and cutting out Sunday early voting and cutting voting places in predominantly minority neighborhoods....
R`s can't ever win, if they don't cheat and do everything they can to limit citizens from voting.....they only win if there is low voter turnout or they've gerrymandered the district......there are too few registered Repubs.
That's a fact Jack!
