So what?

“Haugen told legislative security to remove those two people, which prompted other people to join in that the bill was targeting immigrants and adjourned the committee without getting the full answer from licensing staff or hearing testimony on three other bills.”

I would’ve plunged into the audience and kicked some leftist ass. My fistfights as a legislator would’ve drawn a million viewers on YouTube. Woohooo! My 15 minutes of fame as I inflict pain. Ali has nothing on me when I’m in a rhyming mood.

Gee, when I renew my SD drivers license in a couple of months, in addition to my expiring license, I’ll have to provide:

PROOF of my SSN;

two “approved” proofs of my PHYSICAL (No, I can’t claim I live in a tiny tent in the right-rear corner of our P.O. Box) address;

and a certified copy my BIRTH CERTICATE.

(And I’m not even trying to run for President!)

When my wife renews, she’ll have to provide all of that PLUS our marriage certificate, to prove her name change.

So, what makes illegal residents of Washington so special? And, since when is criminal a “race”?

Were those “members” citizens...inquiring minds would like to know?

If there’s any question about residence, licensing staff must “establish whether they are lawfully present” in the state. “So it is about immigration,” a member of the audience said loudly.

No, it's about the law. Apparently the 'member of the audience' has English comprehension problems.

“You want to target brown people and the working poor,” said another, even louder.

Why divide brown people and working poor?
As if people of brown skinned race and working poor are separate categories and,further implies that people of other races only are the working poor,but doesn’t specify the race and ethnicities of working poor among the races. It’s divisiveness.

It could also be taken as meaning that “brown” ( not sure what that means in reality) people are the working poor.

So we have all of this ethnic and racial divisiveness to sort out before we even get to the issue of Social Security cards.

It makes the rest complete nonsense because,with very few exceptions,every American will have a Social Security number. So how could brown people and the working poor (none of whom according to this statement are brown people possibly) Americans be targeted,since it’s reasonable to assume they have Social Security numbers?

BTW,does the author contend that white working poor are being targeted?

What it boils down to is, “Latinos are superior, and the laws that apply to everyone else should not apply to them.” Period.
