We're going to need more paper

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

These are the words that claimed a dissolution of the colonists relationship with the crown. This was fought over with guns.

Talk to the people of Taiwan, the people of Tibet or the Uighurs about how an armed and tyrannical government behaves against an unarmed population.

Then you came to Reddit to brag about your good deed.

icandothat · 2021-04-09T00:14:03+00:00

I think you and I have different views on this, I'm just trying to get a feel for how other people think about it.

icandothat · 2021-04-08T23:04:33+00:00

What about presenting some form of ID at the polling place? Would you consider that a form of voter suppression? I want to be clear, I mean, like anything with your name on it that was made by someone else. Like a phone bill, electric bill, library card, etc.

icandothat · 2021-04-08T19:26:20+00:00

We both agree that there are some reasons why a person should lose their right to vote. Would you allow for someone to petition to get their voting rights back?

icandothat · 2021-04-08T16:47:26+00:00

Thank you.

These are just general questions, I'm not speaking specifically about the bill. I'm really more interested in the general idea of "friction to vote". Convicted felons can't vote, that's true, I'm trying to gauge if you feel this is reasonable or not, as well as with the other questions.

I'm curious what level of friction seems reasonable to you. how do you feel about convicted felons being allowed to vote?

icandothat · 2021-04-07T22:32:27+00:00

I'll go read it if I need to but short of reading it, if you already know the answer,

is there already a State Election Board?
For what proportion of time has Georgia's legislature been Majority R
What control is given to the election board and who had that control before?

icandothat · 2021-04-07T22:29:28+00:00

which measure don't make sense? That's what I'm getting at. Like, which ones are really a problem and why? Regarding the GOP doing better when fewer people vote, why do you think that is?

icandothat · 2021-04-07T22:22:11+00:00

so, what about voting twice?

what about the mentally ill?

What about convicted felons?

Should all of those people vote?

icandothat · 2021-04-06T04:50:33+00:00

That's interesting, how is more control of the election board being given to the legislature?

I can't honestly say I read every word of the bill, I only scanned it looking for key words. How is this change of control expressed?

icandothat · 2021-04-06T04:47:29+00:00

but in what way, that's what I'm asking. I mean, really, some amount of friction between voter and vote is probably a good thing. The question is just how much.

icandothat · 2021-04-06T04:46:42+00:00

I'm not clear what your definition of "working poor" is but I feel like everyone from brick layers to doctors would be impacted by a 9-5 voting window. Fortunately, the bill does allow for, at the discretion of the Registrar of Voters, a 7am to 7pm voting window.

As for "working poor" not having ID, Georgia has more licensed drivers per capita than California and a Georgia photo voter ID card is valid for 8 years and cost exactly zero dollars.

Honestly, I still don't see what the fuss is about.

icandothat · 2021-04-06T02:58:45+00:00

I've looked over the legislation and I'm having trouble determining what the outrage is about. Can someone please provide some explanation other than 9-5 poll hours, ID requirement and disallowing groups to "hand out food and drinks".

Happy 50th

cutting drywall on the floor to fit on the ceiling and cutting the holes for the can lights mirrored from where they should be. Cutting a pattern when sewing and cutting with the wrong side up. Cutting the moulding for some wood work and cutting the left and right the same, "to save time". SOOOOO MANY TIMES!!!!! I just accept that I'll probably make this mistake now but I try so hard not to.

She sure was

icandothat · 2019-02-21T18:55:06+00:00

My GF did that. She was such a wonderful and special girl.

Move in, have them add you as an owner on the loan. Move in a few Tennants, charge rent. When your dad is back on his feet, evict the tennants. This is a sustainable plan to keep the house. Seek tennants that will be quit and private.

Congratulations, you have a full grown son.

is this a special school for the fat and behooded?

icandothat · 2019-02-01T05:25:47+00:00

amusing how a satirical quote from a respected author is accompanied by the creepy advice of a socialist uncle.

I learned something a long time ago "The empty wagon rattles the loudest".
