I have a fairly intelligent mother in law(not a minority) who does not have a photo id, and the thought of going out and getting one is more than daunting to her, being that(I assume) she has some form of agoraphobia. That being said, most people have some form of photo ID, and there should be no reason not to get one.
Do what I do. Ask them if they think people shouldn't have a valid ID, why do they insist someone have one before they're allowing inside any of their conventions?
I hear points like this all of the time, but if this is the case, how does she shop, buy gas, go out? How did dhe get here credit cards, drivers license, clothes, etc in the first place? She obviously was able to go out? How does anyone do anything for that matter? How do people get Welfare, Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid? These task either require a photo ID or the ability to go out or both. The bottom line fact is there is absolutely nothing you can do in this life without a photo ID....except apparently vote.
Bottom Line: Requiring photo ID’s protects the rights of the voters. If you don’t have an ID, it’s because you don’t want one or you are not legally entitled to one.
