“For someone my age, I’d say yes (I’m 32). But I wouldn’t expect my grandparents in their 80s to be required to do that.”

Excuse me? Folks in their 80’s were required to study (and successfully pass) Government, non-revisionist History, and Civics as formal classes in ha skoo to a degree that I doubt someone your age can even imagine.

I mean for my grandmother today to have to take a test to be able to vote. I don’t agree with that. I do not doubt that she knows more about history than I do and I was raised to be respectful of those who came before me. I think you took what I said the wrong way. :)
