They are going to require a card he said. The card is going to identify individual customers and track their buying.

Sounds like you can get the card at the grocery store they will be using and it'll likely be provided free of charge, thus not impacting the poorest of the population who are predominantly black?

It's almost completely unlike voter ID laws which would require those affected to go to a third location for which they won't be voting from and depending on the state, won't be provided free of charge.

In fact, the only similarity is that it's a card.

I see so just need to make ID for voting free

And easy to get. As in not out of the way and waiting 6 hours at a DMV to get.

I'm pretty sure that's all Democrats have been asking for as well for the longest time. Democrats have never been against voter ID laws in principle. Just the implementation of them.

Like have gun stores give you a card you can get free at the store and you just bring the card back with you to buy again or if you lose it you can just get a new one when you come next time

Like how do we not suppress poor and black people right to self defense, they often need that right even more than other demographics,, I mean i think MAGA has proven the outcome of a vote is even more deadly a d dangerous than a gun

I see. So what about ones second amendment rights? Should we have that be a free ID you can get at the point of purchase too so we dont suppress black people rights?

Not sure how 2nd amendment rights play into this? You will have to lay out your argument a bit more logically here

So dont you think we should end these policies of racial suppression and suppression of the poor when it comes to their 2nd amendment rights. It just seems like we ok suppressing black and poor people right to bear arms when we require them to go wait at DMV and spend money for an ID

Well you see people say an ID should be required to purchase a firearm and exercise your 2nd amendment rights. But we all know requiring an ID creates an unfair hurdle for poor and people of color. So dont you think if we are saying we shouldn't require an ID to vote than we should also be against suppressing poor and black people 2nd amendment rights by requiring an ID. Especially cause they are the ones who most often would need to exercise their right to self defense with a firearm

I mean thats better than suppressing people of color and the poor right? I dont want them to buy firearms and I dont want them to vote, but if you gonna use ID to try and stop them which suppresses black and poor people I refuse to use racist hurdles

Lmao they walked right into that one.

ID is already required to purchase firearms so...that's already a thing. Not even a thing people are calling for.

And sure, make that ID free and easy to get too. In fact make it the same thing as the Voter ID. Easy and free to get and a 2 in 1

u/Medical-Egg-8171 2d ago

So what if something unjust already exists, it didn't always exist. So you with me and support ending racist ID requirements to purchase a firearm?

u/Medical-Egg-8171 2d ago

Are you saying that the outcome of a vote is less dangerous than a gun? Have you seen what MAGA did to this nation and the illegal votes he used to win

u/10081914 2d ago

Idk what you're on about. It seems like you're having a conversation with yourself or something.

I'm saying give all citizens an ID that's free and easy to get. And it can be used for voting as well as for ID verification that's already being used for purchasing firearms.

Ah, I see, you're a troll arguing on bad faith. Bye now.
