Mexico also would not allow millions of the most impoverished Americans to illegally cross into Mexico and give them food stamps, free health care, nor would it allow them to protest and march around shoving big US flags in everyone's faces.
My super liberal History teacher asked us what we think of voter ID laws and I said I am for it. He then said having voter ID laws would disfranchise the poor, minorities, the folks who can't get IDs because some are too old and don't have a birth certificate. He said the lack of ID would keep them from exercising their right to vote and voter ID laws are wrong.
So I asked him why is it that I need to how an ID when purchasing a gun since that is also a right and if it bothers him that law abiding minorities and the poor who can't get an ID cannot exercise their right to keep and bear arms due to laws that forbid the sale of weapons without an ID.
He dodged that question FIVE times even though I kept bringing it up. Still hasn't answered it.
You can say a vote can't kill, or something along those lines. However, keeping and bearing arms is a RIGHT just like voting is. So I guess some liberals only care about certain rights and don't think the same standard should apply to all of them. I don't see them advocating for the poor Joe Schmoe who wants to buy a gun but can't because he can't afford an ID...
Also, how can anyone live in this country their entire lives, go to school, get a job, be a productive member of society without having to prove who they are?!
the voting ID=racism meme is clearly just a scam ploy from political charlatans like Al Sharpton. The usual useful idiots lap it up. OP has smoked 'em out--good job.
Tell you what. Since all those countries also outlaw capital punishment, let's make a deal. Voting IDs in exchange for abolishing the death penalty. If we're going to look to other countries for guidance on one law, we better be prepared to look at all their laws.
hahahahahahahahaa!
Man, liberals are funny.
Your dancing lessons are paying off! But again, if it's "racist" to require an ID for voting, is Mexico racist? How about Canada? How about most of Europe? Are they all racists?
C'mon, just answer the question, this isn't, "Let's Make A Deal", it's a simple question.

Why? Just because another country has one, or even a few good laws to follow as an example doesn't mean ALL their laws are something we should pursue.
Mexico is much poorer than the USA, but they have voter I.D. Laws. is Mexico racist?
No, not racist just smart. Win, win for Mexico.
