Well, you know me...I just can't keep my big ogre mouth shut.

They are creating new restrictions to make it much harder for youth who voted in record numbers in 2008 to do the same in 2012.
Amidst this diatribe I find it rather amusing that there are no facts whatsoever to substantiate this claim.
I mean, with the wealth of information available to the public through the Internet you would think that Comrade Tyner would be able to cite one single example to back up his claim.
For instance, if he was talking about the voter ID laws, which are being considered in many States, then he could say so and lend support to his argument instead of playing up the overly used and pathetic ploy of the racism angle. Perhaps, though, that "putting such a thought to paper" won't work as Americans support such laws, (do I detect a trend here? Republicans "want to literally drag us back to Jim Crow laws," said Comrade Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, D-Fla, chair of the Democratic National Committee.)

Therefore, I must conclude that he's nothing more than a scare monger trying to frighten the children comrades.

Tyner shoots and...nothing but air.

Well, you know how it is...the louder and more extreme the complaint, the more baseless the actual complaint and the more to lose by it.

Debbie blabbermouth forgot to say that democrats had a role in creating the Jim Crow laws..."

The Democrats' missing history

Snip: So what's missing?

There is no reference to "Jim Crow" as in "Jim Crow laws," nor is there reference to the role Democrats played in creating them. These were the post-Civil War laws passed enthusiastically by Democrats in that pesky 52-year part of the DNC's missing years. These laws segregated public schools, public transportation, restaurants, rest rooms and public places in general (everything from water coolers to beaches). The reason Rosa Parks became famous is that she sat in the "whites only" front section of a bus, the "whites only" designation the direct result of Democrats.
