ID's required to attend NAACP rally to protest voter ID requirements
American Thinker ^ | 02/09/2014 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 02/09/2014 11:31:47 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Call the irony police! The North Carolina State Conference of the NAACP is holding a rally to protest that state's new voter identification law, but participants are being advised to bring photo identification. Aurelius of Pundit Press discovered the advisory and comments:

In a flier entitled "Important Dos and Don'ts for Marchers!!!," the NAACP state at the top that all protesters conduct themselves "in accordance with the historic custom of the Civil Rights Movement." They should also listen to their "marshals at all times" and follow the "Dos" and "Don'ts" underneath the opening paragraph.

Some of the Dos are sensible for any rally, such as, "look out for the elderly and the young" and "wear a hat and very comfortable shoes" (emphasis theirs).

Then there are ones that are common sense that you wouldn't expect to have to tell people, such as "DO NOT intimidate, threaten, ostracize or degrade anyone," and do not threaten commuters.

In the middle of the list, however, is a drastically ironic "Do." To go to the rally, you are asked to have "photo identification (driver's license, passport or other valid photo id) with you and keep it on your person at all times."

Remember, this is a protest against needing a photo ID to take part in a fundamental responsibility of Americans... but to go to that protest, you are supposed to have an ID.

Here is a reproduction of the flier:

Got it. Irony is not in the Democrat lexicon, so it seems.

These people have obviously fallen down the rabbit hole-someone please cue up “White Rabbit”...

They also have yet to master the use of apostrophes. Does anyone learn basic English skills any longer?

Is there an active case in the NC court system on the law? Please, please tell me someone will take judicial notice of this!

I don’t think many people do-having basic English skills does not even seem to be a requirement to be a journalist at a major publication.

They tend to totally ignore every other rule in their flyer - does anyone expect them to adhere to this one?

Ooooh, good point!

We conservatives are freaking eunuchs if we can’t insist on ID for voting, when Obamacare requires it.

SERIOUSLY, WE ARE COMPLETELY AND WHOLLY USELESS
IF WE CANT MAKE VOTER ID HAPPEN NOW.

The left is not at all ashamed of being caught in flagrant lies and hypocrisies. Actually, I think they rather enjoy it these days, as it rubs their power in the faces of everyone who can’t get away with being held to no standards.

Yep.

They even had Lou Begla sing Mambo No. 5 at a Clinton attended democrat convention:
