[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have never met a Black person who had ID.  Not one. Zero.

This is why voter ID laws are designed to discriminate. [/quote]

Because black people are too inherently stupid to navigate the 11 minute process it takes to get a license?[/quote]

Maybe it takes 11 minutes in DC - a progressive city with extremely small borders, but everywhere isn't DC.

It has nothing to do with being stupid, what it has to do with is racist Republicans intentionally doing everything they can to prevent black people from getting an ID and by extension preventing them from voting.

Here's how it works: first they shut down the DMV sites in black neighborhoods and reduce the service hours in the remaining locations in the name of "fiscal responsibility."  Now black people have to travel all the way across the county to get an ID, and because public transportation is abysmal outside major cities, this is a trip that can take hours each way.  Black would-be voters can't afford to take an entire unpaid day off (thanks again GOP!) to take three buses across the county to get an ID, so they don't and consequently can't vote, which is exactly by design.
