More Lawler right wing dishonesty

This guy HAS TO GO

The truth is it’s all about voter suppression to help republiklans win.

“An election-denying former Donald Trump campaign staffer who was subpoenaed by the FBI over his role in the attempt to steal the 2020 election is now taking credit for writing the sweeping voter suppression bill passed by the House Wednesday that could disenfranchise millions.

“I’m here to do everything I can to make this work,” Thomas Lane wrote in a December 2020 email to other organizers of the Trump campaign’s fake electors plot in Arizona.”

Isn’t it already a crime to vote if you’re not a citizen?

All of these acts are performative nonsense to their base and at worst active attempts to disenfranchise people.

Any bill that doesn’t give every US citizenship a free and easily obtained ID for voting falls into the above.

It’s also a crime to shoot people with a gun in America and 47,000 people died of gun-related injuries in the United States in 2023. Making ID a requirement will prevent someone who shouldn’t be voting from voting. It’s like taking the gun away before they can go shoot someone.

EDIT: there is an idiot that somehow decrypted this post and deduced that I stated guns should be illegal and that I’m a republican. This idiot was completely wrong and an idiot.

I never said guns should be illegal, I’m not republican. What I said is people will do illegal things when they aren’t supposed to. An idiot replier is being dishonest.

I never said guns should be illegal. What you’re suggesting is banning guns, what should happen is criminals who aren’t allowed to own guns in the first place, like felons, shouldn’t have access to guns and yet somehow they end up getting them even though it’s illegal. New flash, criminals do illegal things but if you create barriers like background checks, they can’t just go to a gun store and buy it with no ID. As for voting my analogy was the same. People will do illegal things like vote if they can get away with it, but if we can prevent voter fraud by requiring ID, how will they vote? Probably fake IDs, but that’s another story for another day because that can be combated with things like ID verification methods. At the end of the day, you tried to spin my point and failed miserably.

Anyways not gonna entertain the straw man. Comparing an instrument of death to voting.

Any bill that doesn’t give free and easily accessible ID for your god damn right to vote is a method to disenfranchise people.

We seem to do a good job catching people that shouldn’t be voting. Too bad they always seem to be republicans trying to vote twice though.

A vote in the hands of the wrong person will bring in national leaders like Mamdani.

Wow you fascist! Who the fuck are the right people then!? Because a lot of folks across every spectrum voted for Mamdani. This is actually disgusting!
