Rasmussen Poll Says Blacks Are More Racist Than Whites [W:358]

Do you agree?

Voter ID laws are trying to prevent a problem. Do you not see a glaring hypocrisy in mandating all citizens must have health insurance, but not everybody must prove they are a citizen?

You have obviously never had to actually deal with people who try to do a lot of things with forged or stolen documents.
I've hired undocumented workers before. Most of them are good hard workers.

I challenge you to get a legal job, open a bank account, cash a check, take out a library book, get a fishing license, register a vehicle or go to a doctor's office for an appointment without ID.
Thats easy, I'd just pay cash or barter for everything or go without. You'd be surprised at the discount rates you can get if you pay cash, expecially for dentists. If something bad happens I'll just go to the nearest emergency room and the taxpayers will pay for my treatment and recovery.

And the impact of any of these is miniscule in comparison to voting for the person who is going to run this country.

Being poor or low income does NOT prevent you from obtaining an ID. Most areas/Dept of Human Services even provide some sort of free transportation services for the low income/elderly to the destination of their choice.

We already have a national ID, it's called a social security number. So why isn't that good enough especially if commiting voter fraud or lying is already a federal offense and punisable with a lengthy prison sentence?
 
By far White are more racist, especially now these days when it comes to racism against Latinos. Not so much institutionalized racism but just personal racism.

that's psychobabble. Given how many latino illegals are in prison, the resentment is understated. But just wait until black<>Latino racism gets going. You see, Latinos will soon be the democrats' biggest ethnic special interest group and in many cases, competing for political spoils in the same districts as blacks. The dems will have to choose between their pet ethnic group since the New Deal-blacks, or the new surging group demanding handouts from the dems-Latinos.

You will see Latinos becoming angry when black candidates are offered up by Dem leadership in areas where Latinos supply the most minority votes for the Dems. Long time black politicians will be pushed aside causing black resentment.

Don't you? You're making claims you haven't supported. It in fact appears you do have a race card.

I'm not the one whining that my skin color gave me disadvantages, despite growing up in the black area of Baltimore. Which claim did I miss backing up that you need private tutoring to understand?
 
English Please. That makes no sense

You want me to teach you English?

You paint the situation in a skewed inaccurate manner. But you vote. And when you vote, you keep your pocket ok in mind, voting your interests as much as anyone else.

Aren't you? You make claims about legitimacy you can't support and try to put yourself in the picked on position. Seems to me that qualifies.

WTF are you talking about? Read post #397 again. It's pretty damn sad if logic that simple is incomprehensible for you.

Your sentence made no sense whatsoever. I don't vote in a way that costs other people money. You vote for income redistribution. People should pay for what they use and especially for what they want and not demand others pay for them. I pay over 400K in federal taxes a year. I sure don't use anywhere near that in federal services. I pay 135K a year in state income taxes and a bunch of property taxes. I have never attended a public school nor does my son. SO yes, I am paying for what others use in addition to what I use

So you are agreeing with me? And this somehow justifies racism?

I read it. The voter I'd law failed because they can't prove there's a problem. It's a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Take that fact, and comments made by republicans that they can by getting suppression of legal voters out of this, and she has solid grounds for her argument.

You, however, claimed that most claims of prejudice or discrimination were false. You failed to back that up, and have less to go on than she does.

Don't you? That money just sitting somewhere nit being used?

I don' think its "racism" that causes resentment. Lots of people tire of the hordes of illegals who choke up our legal system. 40% or more of those in federal prison in the SW and California are illegal latino immigrants. The drain this causes on our tax dollars is idiotic. even in Ohio, the federal authorities spend lots of resources dealing with illegals-both the fact that they are massively involved in drug trafficking, to the ones engaged in more mundane offenses.

It's not about if they are good hard workers or not, though you do realize what you are doing is aiding and abetting a criminal according to the Fed DOL?

Thats easy, I'd just pay cash or barter for everything or go without. You'd be surprised at the discount rates you can get if you pay cash, expecially for dentists. If something bad happens I'll just go to the nearest emergency room and the taxpayers will pay for my treatment and recovery.
That's not what I put forth, though I appreciate that fancy two step.

Discount rates for cash are wonderful, but it's not the pint at hand, now is it?

So obviously, you've never read a social security card. Not to be used for identification is printed right on it. Besides, I take your card, and in the worlds eyes, I am now Moot, and can do anything in Moot's name, because no one knows what Moot looks like.....

You have about as much knowledge of every vote that was counted as I do. Here's some proof of voter fraud:

Regardless, it's clear that voter ID is intended to add a layer of protection to the integrity of the voting system. I've already given a solid argument that the claim of racism with regards to requiring ID is nothing but the good old race card. Check that as one BS racism cry.

To add another BS racism cry, look at the Z/M case. The media tries to make the case look like racism and communities have hoodie marches over a case of a black killed by a non-black, having it mainly for that reason. That's backed by not seeing anything similar for the thousands of black kids killed in gang violence annually.

There's a heck of a lot more than those two cases.

you can resent without being racist. I know plenty of people who despise illegals from Mexico but are not racist towards Mexicans or Mexican Americans who are here properly

By all means, show me more than two cases. You need to do what they couldn't in court. Shw the problem exists. And try to use a better source next time as well. ;):lol:

I know but a lot of this "resentment" has also lead to racism, and you cant deny that.

I can deny it because I don't see it. If you can prove that those of us who resent the law enforcement costs imposed by illegal latinos, has led to "racism" let me know. I don't like people violating laws and then imposing tax costs on the rest of us. If you are an illegal and commit a violent felony you ought to be shot. If you are an illegal, and are deported for causing a felony and you come back illegally, you should be shot. right now we mainly send them back and the come back again. re-entry cases clog the dockets of US attorneys and State Prosecutors all over the USA
 
Well, go ahead and pay it then, who's standing in your way?

You obviously didn't bother to read my prior posts in your haste to try to respond to what you THINK I said

Entering a country illegally the punishment is death?
Wow... Talk about excessive.

You need to pay better attention to details.

Or i could say in the same post that you do also; "if you are an illegal, and are deported for causing a felony and you come back illegally, you should be shot."

That, again, contains the condition of committing a felony. :roll:
