You are jumping from pillar to post. First you said they couldn't drink, fly or get a job without these IDs which is false. None of these IDs are a test of being a responsible adult, they are a test of age.

As an 18 year old, I was an adult and had been living by myself independently since 16, working part time, paying rent, bills and tax. The only two documents that concerned me then were my bus pass and student ID

I had no need to drive and no need to travel abroad. The passport I had was purely curcumstancial. I didn't need it to be an adult. I had stellar grades and was politically aware, 100 times more than the 16 year old who left school to work in the lumber yard and procured a driver's licence for that purpose, and more aware than a 48 year old blue collar worker who would have grabbed these IDs as life progressed. This is the same for many 18 year olds.

Swear that as an 18 year old Ile Ife student or prospective student, one of the top 5% smartest people in Nigeria, that you had one of these.

It's best you call it what it is - voter suppression.
So your case is unique. Never needed docs to prove adulthood. Life was good for you but you feel your vote shoulda coulda woulda made difference.
Your case dont smack racism where iD is needed to vote?


By now you should be hollering Trump is the next best thing since sliced bread but you are hardwired to believe his conservative actions were villainous.

You are talking rubbish. You went to Comprehensive secondary school, a State school. How many of your classmates could get hands on such. Your 4 year old niece has passport because she travelled, what percentage of 4 year olds do?

Voting is a right of citizenry, get that through your thick skull. The minute you put in laws that disenfranchise a good percentage of an eligible demographic from voting, you are denying them rights and playing foul.

I can put myself in others shoes. If not for the luck of happenstance, I would have no business with any of the below documents by age 18 or even 19, and neither would 80% of my classmates. I would have no reason to have a passport if I had a single Nationality as I did not travel as a teen except visiting family in Nigeria or UK as the case may be.
Let's get this clear. If you are a minority chances are you wont have valid document to vote. If you are white the ID is delivered to your doorstep on your 18th birthday.
That would certainly appear racist like the color of milk.
Does it happen that way. Or do 16 year olds have a full two years to get their voting docs in order if they are black. Who only make up 13% of the population.

There is inherent racism in identity docs. prolly these blacks cant even get college admissions.

That's what I gather from you, unless you are typing this from a South End place of indecency.

You should stop being stupid. Where in my post did you see race? At the age of 18, did you have drivers licence in Comproboko secondary school?

This is about cutting down the eligible voters in demographics that don't favour you. Race is just one factor.

Majority of young people vote to the left. How do you cut their vote, if not by cutting out people without drivers licence or passport. Your mumu brain went to say why can't black young people get a licence like the white. The aim is to cut out all young people.

Same thing with the disabled.

Same thing with the poor. That's where the racism allegation comes in.

And also same with the casual easy going citizen who is unlikely to prepare all these things, unlike the cultist who takes voting as war.

This is the reason GQP don't win popular votes with young people, because people don't easily forget disenfranchisement and ojoro.
No election has 100% turnout. Majority have their will. Minority have their say.
Election counts should wait until everyone of age as of that D-Day votes according to you.

Where did voters turn out 100%, or is that a fact you pulled from your ārse?
North Korea. Not 100% turnout but the dictator gets 100% of votes cast.
Stop being on the sly. Nowhere will you ever have 100% turnout.
You asking why those without voter ID should not vote smells like you are a believer like all democrats that Yes Every vote should count and everyone should vote.And a republican should not be declared the winner since not all demonrats cast their vote.

Voting as invented by some prehistoric society was meant to ensure the majority get their will.
But the minorities should also have their say too.

What ID did you have at 18 in your village in Umudike. Were you not eligible to vote at that age?
Where on earth do voters turn out 100%.
Given some countries have mandatory voting but never enforce that law.

Apart from some dictatorial countries. One was asked. How did you manage 99% of the turnout? . His reply. Im interested in that 1% who never voted for me.( Fire and brimstone for that tiny 1% ).

You also have to wonder why Some minions here thinks Voter id is racist. like why would they buy into an obvious lie?
The ones who pin last 4 digits of their social security number here?And his idiots.
They all think voter ID is racist because they have been told its really racist.

Funny, some biracial guy David Kaufman was saying that traffic lights are racist.


[s]A few months back, before Covid-19 kept us in our homes and George Floyd made us take to the streets, I was walking with a friend, her daughter, and my twin sons. My friend is White and I’m not — something I’d never given a second thought until we reached a crosswalk. “Remember, honey,” she said to her daughter as we waited for the light to turn green, “we need to wait for the little White man to appear before we can cross the street.”
I realize that White people like to exert control over nearly everything everyone does, I thought, but since when did this literally include trying to cross the street

Who knows what next..Yea milk is racist too because its white. Ridiculous.

Just like Andrew Cuomo, the Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer ordered elderly homes to accept COVID patients resulting in thousands of needless deaths.
The deaths were undercounted as it soon emerged her policies were directly responsible for thousands of victims. Elderly victims needing care. Let that sink in.

Supreme Court Rejects Trump Bid to Shield Capitol Attack Records From House Panel's Probe

https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/court-executive-privilege/2022/01/19/id/1053141/

The Supreme Court on Wednesday rejected former President Donald Trump's request to block the release of White House records sought by the Democrat-led congressional panel investigating last year's deadly attack on the Capitol by protesters seeking to nullify the presidential election's results.

The decision means the documents, held by a federal agency that stores government and historical records, can be disclosed even as litigation over the matter continues in lower courts.

Only one of the court's nine members, conservative Justice Clarence Thomas, publicly noted disagreement with the decision.
Democrats act like they will never lose power.
Next congress will subpoena say Joe Biden medical records and his erratic speeches. Or Obama records as Benghazi consulate was being overran.

Remember that filibuster Henry Reid removes for judges appointments. Trump used it effectively.

Boris may lose a vote of confidence because of his hypocrisy, and not because of his handling of covid, which we pretty much appreciate.

You can't ask us to remain locked down not meeting more that 3 people then be partying yourself.
Lockdowns dont work. vaxxes dont work to prevent infection, now upgraded to prevent severe disease. Like the 99% of infected people were all hospitalized.
The elite lords party like there is no tomorrow.

American two cases. AOC went partying maskless and caught the coof. Obama 60th birthday was maskless.A third one, some fugitives fully vaxxed fled Texas,drank themselves inflight and took covid to DC.

Why is the FBI not arresting him while they have locked people up who did significantly less?

How can you wait? you are waiting for the media or the FBI to tell you?
Can't you see from your own eyes that he was instigating people to storm the capitol?
We are asking why is he not being charged like others who did less... we don't care who ray Epps is at the moment. arrest him first.
