completely FAIR!

Fair also would be an abortion-auditing force akin to the BATF:

We NEED to protect the lives and health of women.

Auditable records of past abortion, paid test to confirm understanding of procedure/consequences, etc.

This is a great idea but is far too logical for the average Democrat to understand and far too scary to Democrats elites who value power above everything else.

Apply background checks for gun purchases to voting

The Chicago Tribune ^ | September 11, 2017 | John R. Lott, Jr.
Posted on 9/11/2017, 4:24:39 PM by rogerantone1

Republicans worry about vote fraud. Democrats claim that Republicans are just imagining things. But in testimony Tuesday before the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity, I will suggest a simple solution that could make both parties happy: Apply the background check system for gun purchases to voting.

Democrats have long lauded background checks on gun purchases as simple, accurate and in complete harmony with the Second Amendment right to own guns. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has bragged that the checks “make our communities and neighborhoods safer without in any way abridging rights or threatening a legitimate part of the American heritage.”

Works for me, my friends, family and probably most gun owners.

There should be some types of punishment if people lie and get caught trying to register to vote

clever but...
the D’s voting base...includes millions and millions of deceased voters....
(the Un-Deplorable Horizontals)

and they can’t commit any crimes 6 feet under... so their
background checks will presumably mostly be nice and clean

so they’ll be able to continue to vote?

What's wrong with reasoned background checks for voters?

Nope. Racist. And you’re against the poor and downtrodden. However, if they wanted to fly to some city, better haul out the ID.

Damn, I never thought I’d agree with the simpletons at any major MSM outlet.
But, I would agree with this.
What’s good for the goose is good for the buttwipe liberals.

Though no one will EVER ‘crack the code’ of Libs, it behooves one to pay attention.

ONLY a Liberal could say ALL storms are man made and the more people etc means storms more ‘deadly’.
SO when one says, if your ‘theory’ is correct how can a STRONGER storm hit Texas or Florida now that Millions of homes have been destroyed and people without electricity - WHICH should (sort of) appease the Gods.

ONLY a Liberal could call a President Trump nominee a vile, racist, not fit to be alive, much less AG.
THEN, when PDT starts a rumor that Sessions’ head is ‘on the block’, these same Liberals & RINOs damn Trump for firing a Great American such as Sessions

ONLY a Liberal could take a 15 Billion budget, propose raising to 20 Billion and the ‘powers that be’ say we will make it 17 Billion ... LIBERALS scream from the rooftops that the Departments budget is going to be cut 3 billion this year.

Only a Liberal would go home and find his basement full of crap to the window wells and instead of fixing the leak/line etc they propose jacking up the floor above.

Now when I say only a Liberal, I fully realize that RINOs are in that mix.

The Pols of today etc follow the old VN reasoning-

We must destroy the village in order to save it.

lol
Imagine the left’s counter argument to background checks and the need for ID to purchase fire arms target the poor adversely.

Would they inadvertently admit they don’t want lower SEC folks to have the ability to purchase fire arms?

awesome idea but - needs national centralization to cut duplicate voting in addition to non-citizen voting

Anything that might give Democrats less chance of winning elections is not going to get any traction.

After all in California they want to give illegals the vote in local elections.
