Voter ID laws are unconstitutional UNLESS

said ID being required is given to the voter not only for free but if the voter has to extend ANY effort AT ALL it is unconstitutional and is a poll tax.

Sure the ID is free, all you have to do is go get a birth certificate and then drive to the DMV after you spent 6 hours on the phone with bumfuck county to get the birth certificate, blah blah blah...

Sorry, no, unless you FIND me and HAND the ID to me, you cant require it.



These filthy fucking traitorous assholes know there is no voter fraud, so what they are doing is the EPITOME of anti American.

A Brief and Depressing History of Rape Laws

In many societies, rape was defined as a crime against property—if it was defined as a crime at all.


https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/9bkje5/for-context-heres-how-various-societies-punished-rapists


I tried to trace American laws as to rape and I came to the conclusion that law or no law, for over a hundred years rape was entirely acceptable if the victim was black and even if the victim was white, rarely did a man pay any legal penalty for it.

This is the America the GOP wants, the conservative men are tired of worrying about hurting a woman's feelings for sure and most of them dont want to have to deal with the legal system if they force themselves on women.

Hell, they sure dont like sexual harassment civil actions and want them gone.

I refuse to blame someone for doing something they TOLD us they were gonna do.

I blame the people who overtly and indirectly gave him the power to do it.

It is not surprising that a liar has told 1200 lies in 6 months, it is not surprising that Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell want to take away our SS and Medicare and food from poor people.

They TOLD us they wanted to do that!

There was NEVER an email story, and there is NO uranium story now.

next?


How badly do you hate this country that you knowingly cover for a traitor and knowingly go after a gREAT patriot?

Like racism is a white problem, sexual assault is a MAN problem and MEN have to fix it.

Only whites can solve racism, since it is their problem and it is gonna require men to resolve sexual assault since the vast majority is committed by men.

So if you are a man who is not a sexual abuser, then your job, my job, is to STOP this bullshit and never lecture the victim on what they should have done, should do.

Assume that in most cases men have a position of authority over the woman, first of all.

A well meaning liberal man did a thread about what women should do, so I thought lets change the focus to what men MUST do.

Now that the fucking TRAITOR Grassley and his buddies have openly admitted they dont

give two shits about our country, what is next?

Senate investigation is now one by the GOP attacking Hillary over something she didnt do, and the DNC going after a traitor for something he obviously did do.

Even I didnt see this coming, boy does the GOP hate this country or WHAT!

Plus, she is a GREAT patriot!

BREAKING news, Steele Dossier contents leaked down Jeff Sessions leg

and in it there is proof that Donald Trump hires prostitutes to pee on beds, proof that Trump uses the F and N word constantly, calls his own son retarded and brags that he and Putin are close pals who are going to own the world soon.


And not ONE deplorable cares or has changed their minds, not one.

Next?

Did ICE (USCIS) under Trump Sessions threaten JIM JEFFERIES the comedian?

He does have a green card.

He does attack Trump mercilessly as he should on his awesome show

http://www.cc.com/shows/the-jim-jefferies-show

and he attacks him every week. But then last night, out of nowhere, the entire show is Trump free, other than a couple of comments.

I dont believe in coincidences. Until I hear a real good reason for this I will assume he is being fucked with.

Which makes me wonder if John Oliver is next.
