Outright revolt is the only option left. Wait too long and they’ll completely control the military that they will use against you after having purge the gov’t and military of people they consider enemies of the state.
Gee, if only the Russians had been involved, then the Democratic Party would be losing its mind over this. Instead? Crickets…
I was hoping the article would mention if the composition of the court had changed since 2014.
So the takeaway is Republican traitors sit on the AR Supreme Court. Got it.
Clearly, the justices are more scared of black folk and Hispanic voters than they were four years ago.
Third to last paragraph:
Doy! Thank you; I’m blind as a bat.
Now I want crosstabs with state legislature changes over the past decade Basically it seems like it’s another example of the holistic approach to disenfranchisement: Change the law, and if the courts strike down your law, change the courts.
There have been something like 10+ articles on TPM in the last 2 days about voter suppression laws. Welcome to the future - these laws used to be struck down or stopped before they could be enacted - now they are upheld and form a foundation for other states to follow. It is a national scandal of the worst kind and yes - nothing but crickets. I don’t believe in conspiracy theories except when there is an obvious conspiracy.
Do you think maybe that knowing the upstream judiciary has been recast has anything to do with this?
This has to be stopped. Whoever is running in 2020 will HAVE to commit to appointing new justices, and then the SC can start overturning these laws. Screw what happens after that; this is a national emergency. In GA, the governor’s election is on the brink of outright theft in plain slight.
FROM STORY
Arkansas officials argued the new law complies with part of the Supreme
Court’s ruling striking down the 2013 measure.
Justices in 2014 unanimously struck down the previous voter ID law, with a majority of
the court ruling that it unconstitutionally added a qualification to
vote.
MY COMMENT
- AR (__ ALL __STATES REALLY) IS __ RIGHT __ TO HAVE PHOTO VOTER ID LAWS
WHY
BECAUSE YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE ONLY CITIZENS OF A JURISDICTION (NATION, STATE, COUNTY, CITY, OTHER (SPECIAL DISTRICTS)) VOTE.
THE U.S. SUPREME COURT IS __ ALSO __ RIGHT __ SINCE ALL CITIZENS *** (EVEN THOSE WHO HAVE COMPLETELY SERVED THEIR TIME IN
PRISON (SENTENCE (-) GOOD TIME (+) PAROLE (+) ? = ALL REQUIREMENTS ACCOUNTED FOR) SINCE IT WOULD BE WRONG TO ALLOW PEOPLE TO VOTE WHO SHOULD BE BUSY ON (A) APPEALS, (B). PRISON LIFE.)
*** SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE AND __ ANY __ IMPROPER QUALIFICATIONS PREVENT THAT.
HOW TO RESOLVE THE CONFLICT
THE JURISDICTIONS THAT IMPOSE PHOTO OR OTHER ID LAWS IS HEREBY __ REQUIRED __ TO SUPPLY THE ID FOR FREE.
YOU ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO ALL ASSISTANCE POSSIBLE TO ANY GROUP THAT SUPPLIES THE LEG WORK NEEDED TO PROVE TO ON CALL JUDGES THAT A SPECIFIC PERSON __ DOES INDEED __ HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE IN THAT PLACE.
PROOF INCLUDES:
NEWSPAPER ARTICLES
NOTARIZED AFFIDAVITS FROM THOSE WHO KNOW THE PERSON WHO WANTS AN ID.
OTHER ITEMS AS NEEDED BY A JUDGE.
