Why is it discriminatory? Judges are people like you and me. I am speaking logically, what is the big deal in showing your id. Is it discriminatory when a police officer pulls you over and asks for a licence and registration? You have to produce an ID for rolling through a stop sign but not for voting? Seems crazy to me.
Because people would make black people do extra steps and block them from getting the ID/voting.
Wait, black people cannot get a drivers license? Do you have proof of this?
25% of them don't.
You still have not given me a source for this. I've been waiting.

Poor, poor Israel, slowly... Gaining land?
Have you converted to Islam yet? That is step one to your plan of abolishing the Electoral College, is it not?

the settlements are wrong.....they are also extremely small tracts of land...israel finally snapped when they got more militaristic leadership after decades of fighting back terrorism.

i dont understand what that means.
He means that Israel is the aggressor and taking more land that belongs to others.

My point of an unhinged Israel is dangerous. They can only take so much...

Oh and yes Jehovas and Mormons are annoying but they don't kill you if you leave their faith. At least I don't believe they do?
Well, not any more for the most part. lol

Ever heard of Orrin Porter Rockwell?
Likely not.......... HE was Joseph Smith's "bodyguard".......... "THE Destroying Angel"
Later the head of an "enforcer" group termed "the Destroying Angels" who took care of necessary "business" for Brigham Young.............

I don't know IF it still exist but there used to be a diner/cafe near Provo called "Porter's Place".
If you want some more "interesting" flavor regarding the "Mormons" and the SW you might do a google search on Hilldale Ut/Colorado City/AZ......formerly called "Short Creek"..........it has a rather long and interesting History. If you do this, try and find a site with pictures........ it'll be worth it!

Ahhhhh, History....so much info........ and so much fun........IF you understand what is important about it's study..... It ain't the daggone dates, etc......... it's the lives led! (and LIVED!)

Knowledge is fine but you can't make any $$ off it.

critics of israel only look at israel's actions..only the what but never the why.
israel was the underdog for 19 years until 1967.....3 times they defeated 7-8 countries with a land mass the size of the united states vs new jersey.
again the settlements are wrong but they are extremely small tracts of land.......it took a long time of fighting wars and terrorism before israel decided enough was enough.

bob--you are very well meaning...of that there is zero doubt but the jewish people pray for peace and do not hate the arabic people......they have always had sympathy for the plight of the people so misrepresented by their leaders......israel has always expressed a sincere hope and offer to help palestine under peace to become a successful state and flourishing economy.........israel and jews around the world want a warm peace just as they forged a real peace with egypt.
TY Dino......... let me point out that this is decidedly NOT my area of expertise (if I have any of that on anything??)......... I am just speaking from a layman's US citizen (Christian background) point of view.

"...israel and jews around the world want a warm peace just as they forged a real peace with egypt."

MOST Americans believe this and it is WHY Israel has always received such unwavering support from the US. (regardless of administration!)
However, the Israeli Gov't has NOT always acted with this as it's primary focus....... and the US should NOT just give blanket support to the Israeli Gov't when the Israeli Gov't acts against the interests of PEACE in the region as THAT should be the primary focus of the US. Supporting any action that will bring about a true peace between the parties and OPPOSING any action BY either party that erects a hurdle to a long-lasting and equitable agreement that (finally) brings peace to these two factions--------one a Country with a strong Military, a functioning society and Gov't, and a (relatively) secure homeland......... and the other with just the HOPES for a small piece of LAND for which to try and establish the same.

It is my opinion that much of the more recent settlement building has been NOTHING BUT a continued effort by the Israeli Gov't to establish such a "presence" in certain areas as to erect permanent barriers to any attempt to return these lands as a base for a homeland for the Palestinians. More simple Nation building. These lands were occupied by war. While the war (from the Israeli perspective) was quite just, that doesn't necessarily compel the retention of ALL the land gained. Does it?

Tell ME about it!!! I'm the smartest pauper in history..............

And then look at Trump.............. IF he's to be believed (a BIG IF) he's gotta be the dumbest (most intellectually challenged) millionaire on the planet.
He's gone thru life without really reading anything of import, without really listening to anybody's advise (even the General's don't know what HE knows!), without knowing much of ANYTHING (by all appearances!) yet he's a millionaire???

plus, he's fat, Bald, can't speak in public with any depth or humility, and has NEVER even heard of the word gracious...............
What is it the Jewish faith believes about the "ruler" (at present) on Earth? in Christianity until the return of Christ, it is (The Earth is) the Devil's playground. HE rules. So, ergo........... those that prosper HERE are, by definition, walking with Satan.......... and poor lost infidels, and poor souls like me are destined to be, in the POTUS vernacular, losers! Losers in Christ! At least that's what they tell me. And why I'm an infidel.
I don't accept losing without a fight. Never got used to it............ blame baseball.........

Your defense of Islam is it’s small population in the US. Would you be OK if it grew from 1% to 10%? Btw I am not condemning peaceful Islam only radical Islam but as you see in the world all majority Islamic countries are not exactly preaching liberal values.
That's taints. Mine is that most Islamists are harmless. Ben Shapiro agrees.
Define harmless, even the peaceful ones, most believe:
  1. Men are superior to women aka women are 2nd class citizens
  2. Gays should be killed or at least excommunicated
  3. Apostasy is punishable by death
  4. What happened with Charlie Hedbo was justified
Hate to tell you, cccp, but:\
1. many American men still believe this.
2. Many right wing Catholics believe this..maybe not the killed part (although I am sure some of them do) but certainly the excommunicated, or even "cured" part.
3. You could probably find a few Americans who believe this too, although I admit, probably not too many.
4. Many right wingers feel killing doctors who perform abortions is justified

We are on the same page. If I were wealthy I'd support my kids being historians or philosophers but I am just an average middle class father of two. So I need them to fend for themselves.

You made my point. Liberals hate the GOP for the reasons you just listed and mostly those are Republican beliefs. So I say tangidiot is a hypocrite because he chides the GOP for this sh*t but defends Islam.

#1) I would say some, not many. Fewer than 50%
#2) Yes, most are Republicans. My wife left that faith for that reason.
#3) Very few if any
#4) Again GOP....

So you see what I mean about Leftists being hypocrites?

bob...you are halfway there......im not the only jew that wishes israel didnt take land for settlenments....the why is the most important point........before israel went right...the palestinians were warned it was going to happen......for over 40 years the palestinians made no effort for peace and there was continued unabated terrorism......can you imagine a small nation surrounded by terrorists and armies across a land mass the size of the usa........the psychological threat is intense.....it is extremely important to understand that israel snapped at some point...they frayed to the point of a national nervous breakdown.
the settlers gained more and more power as terrorist attacks increased...to say that settlements are wrong is correct but one needs to understand what led to it.........also they started as a future bargaining chip as good faith peace efforts failed.......you should fully understand that the arab insistence of the 4 million right of return is not made up.
