    No doubt there are those who want to use voter ID as a backdoor poll tax, but even the link in your link states Alabama offers free IDs. While the statistics about driver licence offices closing is, indeed, an eyebrow raiser, I'm guessing it's more about the economics of each of those counties rather than racial. If it isn't, this is an excellent case to push up through the Federal court system if not SCOTUS.


    http://talkingpointsmemo.com/muckraker/alabama-drivers-licenses-voter-id
    “Every single county in which blacks make up more than 75 percent of registered voters will see their driver license office closed. Every one,” Archibald wrote.

    Archibald also noted that many of the counties where offices were closed also leaned Democrat.

    “But maybe it’s not racial at all, right? Maybe it’s just political. And let’s face it, it may not be either.” he wrote. “But no matter the intent, the consequence is the same.”

    The voter ID law passed in 2011 — which tightened previous ID requirements –includes driver’s licenses on a very short list of government-issued photo IDs accepted in order to vote in the state. If a resident does not have the proper ID he or she must get two poll officials to vouch for his or her identity. Additionally, residents without photo ID can apply for a free state photo ID. The law was put into effect in 2014.

    An excellent example of hate being spewed by the far left. ;)

    Only those who take the Bible literally believe such a thing. Others believe that people put themselves in Hell and can get out anytime they seek redemption.

    No they aren't and no they shouldn't. Who told you this?

    There are thousands of denominations of Christians. "Modern" Christianity has evolved over time. Some branches died out, some were bludgeoned to death by other Christian denominations. Example; the Trinity is a concept that didn't come into being until the third century although the earliest use was in the second century to mean "God, his word and his wisdom".

    http://www.documentacatholicaomnia....us_Antiochenus,_Ad_Autolycum_[Schaff],_EN.pdf
    In like manner 101 also the three days which were before the luminaries,583 are types of the Trinity,584 of God, and His Word, and His wisdom.

    The bottom line when referring to something a "Christian" said is "which Christians"?

    I knew a woman who immigrated from Germany and became an American citizen. She still loved Hitler, everybody in her family was prospering -- because Hitler brought back jobs. And it's true that Hitler was the greatest jobs politician who ever lived.

    She wouldn't talk about the Jews.

    everything I said applies to all Christians, with the exception of a very small minority who do not view homosexuality as a sin.

    What stupid about it given the history of Christians and the Christian church toward Jews over a thousand years?

    Also he was raised as a Christian by a christian mother and and was baptised in the Roman Catholic Church. In 1904.

    Yep, but of a racist sort.

    Like a number of American Christians, historically and today. The goofiest ones believe in some mythical "lost Aryan tribes" who are, of course, European and Asian.

    LOL so you think that there had been no large scale mass murderer Christians in the sad history of the human race killings in the name of Jesus???

    We do not even need to go all that far back in history.

    Somehow saying christians are dangerous, seems like a joke. And also saying what our founders set up and every president and congress until reagan, abided by, economic nationalism to protect our own people, is even a bigger joke.

    If not a joke, then the statement is what is dangerous to the american working and middle class.

    If economic nationalism is dangerous then the heads of a family looking out for the family is a grave danger too. But when such a thing is called dangerous, look out! For what madness will come next from such a mind as this? Such a mind would tear up a steel ball with a feather, or attempt it. lol That is how destructive it is to a People, a nation. Sometimes thinking can take you to some absurd places, I will grant you that. As well as to places where basic common sense is nonexistent. You may as well have said that eating anything is very bad for your health. And not we should all abstain from eating. In the interest of a long life and good health.

    Both Hitler and Stalin was raised in Christian households/families and you can pretend otherwise if you care to do so.

    Some people will believe anything that Hitler says.

    The next thing will be a claim that Hitler, a national socialist, is hard right. No. ??
