As mid-term elections hurry closer, “voting rights”, “voter suppression” and similar terms will be shouted like “FIRE!” in a crowded theater, scaring the bejesus out of those who haven’t figured out the lie. Those doing the yelling are liberals and special interest groups who profit from ignorance and know they’ll lose big time if considerable finagling and skullduggery doesn’t come to their rescue. An “honest and open election” is a pariah to those who favor tyranny.
Without a unilateral solution, “voting irregularities”, “recounts” and “stolen elections” will continue to surface every election cycle and citizens will pay the price in lost rights and trampled liberty.
It is beyond obvious a photo ID is the simplest, most effective solution; the picture is irrefutable. In addition, a photo id – usually a driver’s license – is nearly ubiquitous. Even without one, many other forms of “citizen’s ID” are available in every state.
The very vocal opponents of voter ID invariably use the venerable ‘Racist!” charge to silence all others. Without fact, logic, or reason, they claim voter ID is the primary means of voter suppression, especially among Blacks, who tend to support their liberal agenda. They fail to explain just how ‘racist’ voter ID creates voter suppression or stifles voter’s rights. “It’s just ‘racist!” All in. All done. End of argument.
OK – let’s run with that.
Certainly, “racism” is something to be eradicated immediately – if not sooner! What better way to accomplish this than eliminating all actions requiring the ‘racist’ photo id. Permitting them to continue only encourages racism and racism is wrong.
Here is a short list of popular actions requiring some form of photo id:
- Buying a house
- Renting an apartment
- Opening a bank account
- Cashing a check
- Getting a job
- Flying on an airplane
- Getting a hunting/fishing license
- Buying alcohol or cigarettes
- Driving a car
- Picking up a curbside order at WalMart
- Filling a prescription
- Getting a verified account on Twitter or Facebook
These actions and all others not listed requiring photo ID must be changed, eliminated, or made illegal if we are to stamp out racism in our time.
For every complicated problem, there is often a simple solution – which is why so many oppose it. Too many people and special interest groups find sustaining racism and victimhood is more profitable than peaceful human relations.
