You don't have to pay a red cent to get a state-issued ID card. This is literally the only time I haven't seen the poooooooor line up for something to be given to them that they don't have to pay for.

How exactly is it raaaaaaaacist to require that someone prove that they're registered to vote, and that they are truly who they say they are, when they go to the polls? The inverse of that argument, of course, is that the only reason Democrats fight voter ID laws is that they rely on some level of voter fraud, illegals at the polls, etc. to keep their folks in office. Explain otherwise.

We've talked about it a good bit in this thread.

While the intention isn't inherently malicious or racist, there are studies that suggest and common sense would too, that requiring a voter ID card would disenfranchise a minority subset of the potential voting population.

Conservatives want voter ID laws for common sense reasons. Dems don't want them because they lose potential voting blocks. That's pretty much it.

Samson suffers from white guilt so he likes to scream racism at anything and everything without taking the time to actually look at facts and logic.

Smarter people than me have determined that voter ID laws are racist.

See what the courts ruled about North Carolina's voting laws. They deliberately targeted minorities.
