And lets use words like "draconian" and "disenfranchising" as often as possible. And oh yes bring up a myriad of other issues that have absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand. The single most important right we have and you argue it shroud not be protected by a simple ID. Buy booze without one. But cigarettes with out one. Get a SS card without one, of course this applies to honest people. Cash a check at your own bank with out one. Why does such a simple idea go over your cluttered brains? Quit spewing liberal talking points and start remembering how important elections are. The right to vote and protecting that right is one of the most important things we can do and a simple ID is one way to do it. Why is it people who have worn a uniform understand this and......what is the use.
THE GOVERNMENT spends billions on illegal immigrants. Maybe re-thinking on the GOVERNMENTS part is in order.What should a voter ID be any easier then getting a marriage license? I got married in SC, and I had to replace my SS card because it fell apart (not to be used for ID purposes I believe). So I had to get an "official" copy of my birth certificate, in order to get my SS card replaced, and only then could we get a marriage license. Oh the agony and the suffering of replacing them. The anguish and anxiety qas almost overwhelming, and the total cost of $15.00 dollars almost put us in bankruptcy. Oh my gosh what an ordeal.......and it took 3 days....the waiting was unbearable.
I'd like to meet someone who claims getting an ID is as impossible as some people seem to make it. I had an expried ouf of state DL, no ssc and no birth certificate. I now have all three and I did not have to take a loan out to do it. The BC was mailed to me, took it to get my ssc (10 min wait) and then stopped by the DMV.
Our DMV here is a nightmare. I lost my drivers license on a hiking trip and had to replace it when I returned. I was there over 3 hours to get a new license. Thankfully I have plenty of paid time off as a benefit of my job, but had I missed three hours of pay it would have thrown a kink in my budget. I would imagine that effect would be felt far more significantly by someone living near the poverty line.
Again I'll remind you that I am not the topic of discussion here. If you want to make it personal feel free to do so via private message. If you have nothing constructive and on topic to add I suggest you keep it to yourself.
