I hear you. It’s sooooooooo tough for the elderly, poor, handicapped, etc… to get an ID of some kind yet they still manage to function in society where one is required.
Honestly out of EVERYTHING I have read, comments, arguments and the like I have seen ONE person complain that it was hard to get an ID because he was disabled and had to arrange assistance with transportation to get one. The rest were nothing arguments (although his simply required effort and planning).
The whole uproar is nothing but crap because the cheaters have to modify their tactics.

If Hispanics voted 90% Republican, you can bet that liberals would be the staunchest anti-illegal immigration warriors! They’d claim that illegals hurt the poor, hurt our education system, hurt the environment, etc….
I think “liberal” and “progressive” are poor words to describe the left. “Hypocrite” is far more accurate.
Don’t know how in the hell such an admirable and necessary trait became demonized…oh wait, yes I do, demoncrats!

Lived in Wheeling (Chicago sub in NW Cook Co) for 25+ yrs. For the last 10-or-so, I was a Judge of Elections. At various times, I detected/caught vote fraud being perpetrated. Reported same to county officials. One time, I was “investigated” by none other than Little Lisa, the Illinois attorney general, herself! She tried to entrap me into ignoring the ID rules. Didn’t work, of course, but that’s how the Dems handle “trouble-makers”—they trick ’em into some minor error, then make press-assisted examples of them. The resulting hoopla drowns out the original problem—and the woes befalling the “trouble-maker” serve as deterrent examples to other election judges who might observe vote-fraud and feel obliged to report same: ignore, and keep your damned mouth shut! : (

Every Islamist splinter group wants control of Saudi. Not so much because of oil as because of Mecca and Medina. Whoever controls two of the three holiest sites in Islam gets to tell every other Muslim on Earth what to do, is their conclusion. (The other holiest site is the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem.)
The Iranian mullahs especially want those sites in their hands. As does ISIS. And yes, both intend to use that “authority” to declare The Caliphate and then tell every other Muslim it’s “KILL ALL INFIDELS IN THE NAME OF ALLAH!!!” time.
Anyone who believes otherwise should review the history of Iran since 1979. Plus the history of Islam overall. And oh yes, the Qu’ran, specifically Sura 9 and the Hadiths.

Read somewhere recently (website “Gates of Vienna” maybe?) that Mo said that Jerusalem was the Jews Portion, and that there was no documentation that Mo had ever been to Jerusalem. Until after the Muslims conquered it, and set up their shrine on top of the Temple Mount. Where these days kids play soccer in the courtyard, kick the ball against the wall in the sight of the Muslim guards. Also saw a pic of one of the daily genuflects toward Mecca, with a crowd of Muslims turning up their butts toward the Dome of the Rock. Holy site?

Anyone who thinks this is new should look up the 1876 Presidential election vote buying scandal, Hayes vs. Tilden. Specifically the cipher dispatches via Western Union regarding buying electors in Florida.

Gotta show proof of ID (many times) to buy a house.
Gotta show proof of ID to buy alcohol.
Gotta show proof of ID to get a driver’s license and drive a vehicle.
Gotta show proof of ID to pass NICS to buy a gun.
Gotta show proof of ID to apply for credit cards.
Gotta show proof of ID to be a delegate at a political caucus or convention.
Even have to show proof of ID to apply for a library card to borrow a book.
So — what the f##k is wrong with having to show proof of ID to VOTE!!

You shouldn’t be showing ID to rent – that is for a credit check, and those are racist.
You shouldn’t buy a house, it just encourages independence.
You shouldn’t drink alcohol.
You shouldn’t be driving, the car should do that for you.
You shouldn’t even be LOOKING at guns!
The CC company shouldn’t be checking your credit – that’s racist.
If you’re part of the elite, the right people should already know you, and shouldn’t need an ID at the caucus/convention.

Funny thing about places with voter ID in place. It leads to a surge in registration for IDs from those poor little brown people that Democrats claim are too stupid to get them.
The Patriots who fought the Revolutionary War, Civil War, World Wars, Korean War, Vietnam War, and the Middle East Wars, and every other conflict that required selfless sacrifice, so that I might be and stay free.
I fear that there might soon be another war against elements amongst ourselves who would remove and deny that freedom, and I will honor those Patriots as well.

One of my Great Greats came from Portugal to California in 1848. Worked hard and became a citizen. He took his Citizenship papers to every Voting Day to prove he had the Right to Vote.
Now there are interlopers with the help of collaborators trying to overturn Law because they say so. Didn’t collaborators get put up against a wall and shot for aiding and abetting the enemy.
In Missouri yo have to show an ID with the name matching the voter registration book. You have to verify your address is correct. It doesn’t have to be a photo ID but an ID.
There should be a cost to participation. That cost should not be unbearable, nor onerous, but it should show at least a minimum of effort and consideration on the part of the voter. Voting is by far the most dangerous single, legal act we perform as citizens of this country. It should not be trivial.
A photo ID, or some other identity verification is part of a necessary system that proves that you are a legal voter and have not voted somewhere else, nor allowed anyone else to vote on your behalf.
We should always be wary of allowing laws that require Govt permission to exercise our rights and privileges as it’s too easy for that simple “It’s just an ID” to become “we can deny your that ID on a whim”. The people fighting against the IDs have their place as do those fighting for them. The best arguments usually win out in the long run. That’s how our system works.
