Urban League says that asking for an ID to vote in US election is racist.

But when Urban League gives away free turkeys for Thanksgiving, they demand an ID.
Urban League St. Louis will give away 2000 turkeys in its annual turkey giveaway sponsored by TIAA and Schnucks. Participants will need to bring ID, Proof of Income, Residency and Social Security Cards for everyone in the household. November 22, 2016 from 1pm-3pm. James H. Buford Outreach Center 935 Vandeventer Ave St. Louis MO 63108.

All of the concerns the Urban League and the dems have over voter fraud and how elections are conducted. These groups do not offer any means to ensure the vote is correct.


A DL and confirmation of where you live is basic security. Its not Racist!

allowing employment discrimination isnt inherently racist either, but the end result usually is, same with voter ID.

Further more, you are arguing for a fix for a system that isnt broken

free turkeys are not a fundamental constitutional right.

I'm guessing that a lot of the ones standing in the free turkey line think otherwise.

You are correct, but what does your statement have to do with the situation at hand ?

Are you saying racism can only exist when it violates a Constitutional right ?
