I'm not talking Harry Potter bs.

It's more like a zen Buddhist koan.

Something like, 'Before enlightenment; chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment; chop wood, carry water.'

Are you high?


Refute this.... Thomas Jefferson would hate this country and would be trying to overthrow it.

Fraudulent voting, regardless of the scope, is a problem. So I see no problem with taking a common sense approach to ensure secure and fair elections. Saying something isn't a problem because it isn't "widespread" enough is ridiculous. That's like saying finding solutions to help lower the crime/murder rates in Chicago isn't important because it's a localized problem. . You know, it's not widespread so why worry about it. Right?

Why? What is it about the minority population in Texas that SB7 and HB6 applies only to them? By the way, am not white and I read both bills.

You accuse me of racism, but it it you who want to suppress the votes of minorities through any means possible, because you can't stand the thought that a minority politician might be elected. Obama was a far better President than Trump, but many Republicans were fainting at the thought that a Black man was elected to the nation's highest office. BTW, I didn't vote for Obama in either election. I DQ'd McCain after he chose the worthless bimbo Palin as his running mate and didn't vote that year, and I held my nose and voted for Romney in 2012.
Oh please.

No one is preventing persons of color from getting a real-ID compliant driver's license or a passport. And btw, the State of Texas has no jurisdiction over passports, that's within the Department of State's purview.

Our entire argument is because you complained that I love Thomas Jefferson but criticize democracy.

The reality is, Thomas Jefferson would feel exactly how I feel about the United States of Americaâ„¢. If you don't believe so, show me.
