They are not being prevented from voting. They’re being required to show the same sort of identifications that non-college students would. Unless you can provide a cite that over 80% of PA college students do not also hold a valid form of ID that is acceptable, I can’t take your argument seriously.
Since you seem to think you’re making a point of some kind with that, how about just telling us what it is?
Consider it this way: you were ostensibly following up on Bricker’s post. He has been posting here for a long time and I have come to know his posting style. Further, I have had ample opportunity to gauge his intelligence. Given that, had he been the one making your posts, I would have concluded that he was being deliberately obtuse–and would have told him so. In doing so, save hyperbole, I would not have though there was any other possibility.
I do not know you. While it is possible that you are being deliberately obtuse, unlike in Bricker’s case the possibility that you are incapable of grasping the distinctions necessary to follow the conversation and participate in a dialogue are very real. If what you took from the initial exchange started you on this path, and if you were further unfazed or unable to comprehend or follow Alan Smithee’s post, then there is no other conclusion (again, excepting that you are not acting the fool).
That in this post you are suddenly shifting from your tenacious grip on questions of line-standing to demanding “for the Nth time” I respond to something you were first asking about in this particular post suggests a dreadful deficit in competency.
It’s really this simple: any1 who can’t produce a picture id, doesn’t deserve to vote. Getting a picture id is ez; DMVs will issue a non-driver id to those who don’t want a driver’s license. If some1 is so burdened by the problems of life that they “can’t” get a picture id, they don’t get to vote. That ain’t a Democrat or Republican position - it’s a common-sense one. To pre-deflect any accusations - even Republicans who are too ‘persecuted’ to get a picture id, should be prevented from voting. Better?
Mixed up threads - it was another thread in which it was mentioned several times, and no proponents of “Voter ID laws exist in order to disenfranchise Democrat voters” answered it.
So - for the second time - were the Democrat-controlled legislatures in Rhode Island and Delaware trying to subvert democracy and suppress votes when they passed the Voter ID laws?
Well, where I live, in Oregon, no one has gone to a polling place to vote for almost 15 years. Every election from the little county measures to the big general elections is vote by mail. If you wanted to mark those that have voted you would need to insert little dye bombs in each envelope.
When the rest of the US moves into the 21st century and leaves the 19th behind and goes to vote by mail, many of these issues will be left behind too.
You do need to have a mailing address or PO box so I suppose that disenfranchises those voters living under bridges, but really vote by mail is simple, cheap and effective.
And I agree that requiring people to stand in line to vote on a particular day IS a poll tax that eliminates the working poor, shift workers, those without transportation or the money for gas to get to the polling place, stay at home moms with kids that make it impractical to spend the time to go vote, and many other sorts of people who just don’t bother because the logistics are difficult.
It’s harder to explain why vote by mail participation is not higher than it is, when the ballot is sitting in your home for a couple weeks and you can’t be bothered to fill it out and send it in.
Disenfrachiser! Denying the addressally-challenged the right to vote - that’s unAmerican. They must all be Republicans in Oregon. Every1 knows they’re the evildoers who constantly scheme to deny votes.
Is there a problem with your keyboard?
Not that I’ve ever heard. It was, once, I suppose, if you go by Gangs of New York, but that particular form of ballot-box-stuffing was a long, long time ago. Nowadays it’s enough trouble to get a voter to vote once. 
Fine. Is there a problem with your monitor?
I suppose there could, for some reason your post read like gibberish. Should I get my monitor checked?
The ink is slippery?
What browser are you using? You may need to adjust your **Skammerizer **settings. I hear they go up to 11.
I actually worked for the Republican Party here in Oregon during the last major election (hey, I really needed the money!). Part of my job was to remind people of deadlines as long as they were likely to vote for the GOP guy. While I genuinely helped a few people to vote, there were a lot more who were fed up with politics and didn’t plan to vote at all. Add in all of the people who have moved and never bothered to update their address with the county commissioner, and you have lower-than-expected turnout. I think the number of people who forget or slack off about it are actually fairly low.
