We always hear that color shouldn’t matter...and that consevatives always consider color in their life...and we are big meanies. This is not the case at all. Conservatives see character. My point is, the political left is the only group bringing up identity politics.....The Jury didn’t have enough black people.....Hispanics can’t get ID for voter laws.....we don’t have enough women engineers....etc.

Whether or not any of this is true is completely beside the point. There is no structure or system in place in this country that prevents anyone from doing anything they want to do. Black people weren’t on Z’s jury because that’s the way it went. It’s not a conspiracy. Most of my grade school teachers were asians. That’s the way it went...no big deal. Get it?

In any case, here’s my statement: If you believe the jury acted irresponsibly or made the wrong call, then justify your position with an argument. Talking about the make-up of the jury as if yu are on some high-minded cerebral plain makes you look like a complete idiot. In other words, don’t see color, see the facts!!! Isn’t that what you want? It’s certainly what I want.

By the way, why do minorites have so much trouble getting photo ID? I personaly think it’s insulting to think something like that let alone say something like that in polite company but, it’s apparently what liberals believe.

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.
