Judge Rules Blacks, Poor Are Too Stupid To Produce Photo ID
A federal judge, appointed by Barack Obama in 2011, ruled on Thursday that the requirement by the state of Texas to present an ID in order to vote is unconstitutional. Furthermore, the judge, U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos, stated that the voter ID requirement is ‘an unconstitutional poll tax” put in place by a racially charged legislature in 2011.
In a ruling the appears to be more activism from the bench rather than based upon facts, Judge Ramos clearly stated that she had no evidence that there was any racist intention in the requirement for a photo ID. She based her decision on her own accusation of at the Republican led legislature being racially charged solely on her own belief system.
Poll taxes were put in place by Democrat developed Jim Crow laws in order to prevent blacks from voting. Voters were required to pay a set amount in order to vote. Failure to pay the amount, as well as failure to pass a literacy test, meant that the potential voter could not vote.
A drivers license or photo ID is commonplace in our society. Individuals need to produce identification to prove their identity when they travel by airplane or bus, buy alcohol or cigarettes, apply for housing, buy certain cold medications, enter a nightclub, apply for welfare, gamble in a casino and even to purchase certain rated video games or enter certain movies.
