In a perfect world ID cards are free. Unfortunately, people dont like even the smallest tax increases, so you get charged for them.

The method I obtained it isn’t any different than other place in the US. I scheduled a day off from work (at this point a Papa Murphy’s) and understood and prepared for the expected pay…

Correct, they are not. But the federal government has a responsibility to ensure only citizens vote. Seeing as we have 11 million plus illegal immigrants in the US, requiring a voter to show an easily obtained proof of citizenship (a DL or State ID in this case) seems like a no-brainer.

Student ID’s can be easily replicated or manufactured. I can see why those wouldn’t be allowed. Gun licences are issued by the state, usually have renewal sticker or colors, and can be run by the state to cross check for fakes. If you have that state’s Gun Licence, it is at the very least an indication of…

Ill never understand how these laws affect PoC more than whites.

To rent a house, I needed 2 forms of ID. I used a state ID and my SS card.

To buy my car, I needed one. I used my newly minted Drivers License.

To get my job, I need 2 forms of ID. Used the DL and SS card.


Are people trying to tell me PoC dont own a state…

Hate Trump all you want, but the TPP was a bad deal for the majority of the US.

It had the potential to send away even more blue collar jobs, it basically mandated digital Iron Wall for copyright (AKA, your ISP would have to actively watch you for copyright violations), and all in all helped the other 11 countries…

If you throw around Nazi enough, it starts to lose its oomph.

Donald ain’t a Nazi. Neither is the vast majority of the government (banon might count). Donald is a opportunist. He saw a way to the top, and he took it. If he thought he could win with hugs and laughs, he would have followed that path.

Donald is about as…

Oh Really? Thats awesome.

Not a cop, just someone who understands that while some people may be special snowflakes, it doesnt exempt them from real life, where real consequences happen.

The assault was far from vicious. The harm done is superficial. Worst case a pulled muscle and a headache. He didn’t beat her, or taser her repeatedly, or…

The sad reality is that this closure will probably mean the death of many of these animals. Tigers in particular are fucking expensive to maintain. They are also dangerous (well, more dangerous) if they haven’t imprinted on the owner. So unless there is a zoo/refuge that has room for a MALE tiger with 0 social…

So it doesnt matter why she was grabbed, “tossed” or removed from the classroom? What should the teacher have done? Should they have let the student continue to openly disobey? Should they have asked 1000 more times nicely for her to put the phone down? Should they have waited while she was bored with the phone? Ohh,…

Police officers who are assigned to schools get extra training to deal with teenagers, at least they do in the area I grew up (Kansas). This is in addition to the extensive ongoing training police get to apprehend criminals in a fast manner that protect bystanders. If the criminal gets a pulled muscle or a bloody nose…

I dont think he should be charged with a hate crime. It isn’t uncommon for a criminal to complain about pain when an officer has them in any type of hold as a vain effort to get the officer to let them go so they can try to run.

The choke hold is however illegal in NYC, so he should be charged with something related…

This wasnt an action against her because she was black. She was told to leave by a teacher, then told to leave by an officer of the law. What’s he suppose to do? Keep asking nicely till she gets bored or school is out? How bout to the end of time?

Laws are Laws. We should either enforce them all, or enforce none. Sure, work for change, but while the law is in effect it should be enforced.

More to the point, this guy knew he was on the short list, and decided to buy a house and have a kid. What the actual fuck was he thinking. He had to know this was going to…

Their actions challenge democracy’s essence and highlight the privilege that white people in positions of power wield: immunity. It is unimaginable that either David or I could enter the Capitol and remove the statue of slavery advocate John C. Calhoun without being accosted and likely arrested.

If half, or most, of the prison population keeled over right now, would you truely care? I mean deep down, to your core, could you honestly see your day to day, year to year life change at all? Probably not.

My tax money, and more importantly the majority of this country’s tax money, should not go for something we…

It’s not essential their health and well being, it just makes them feel more at peace. Essential to health and well being would be something like Medicine for a disease, or a critical surgery.

This? This is something someone does on their own time, with their own money, for their own satisfaction.It is not something…

Actually life threatening. Cancer WILL kill you.

Not being turned into a woman will not. If the person is suicidal, there is psychological counseling for that.

That’s not life threatening. Life threatening is when half your body shuts down because you need surgery to unblock an artery. This is just a guy being whiney in prison.

A taxpayer should not be forced to pay for this UNLESS vast majority of taxpayers decide it is in there best interest. That’s why we have a military,…

Honest question:

This looks to me like this law is:
Poor person breaks law
Poor Criminal can’t afford to pay legal fees
Poor Criminal pushes cost onto law abiding citizens

Now, I am not a Lawyer, nor do I study laws regularly. So if this is far more complex than i’m making it (probably is), i’d love an explanation. This…
