Seems pretty apparent he supported the decision to move it in 2021 and supported the decision to have it there in 2025.
And the reporting is asking why
Why is this so hard for some of you lol

Because he's a baseball coach in MLB all star game.... Its about the players, not about his personal politics.
The league made a decision.

But he interjected his personal politics into the conversation in 2021 lol

He supported the commissioners decision in 2021 after it was made.
What job do you have where when the CEO makes a decision you go to the media and tell them how much you disagree with it?

Trying to turn him into an extremist
This is 2025. Democrats do not control the state of Georgia any longer and are not trying to suppress blacks or black voters in any way.
Saying a state or an entity is trying to suppress a specific group IS an extreme point of view. He said these words himself.
No one is trying to paint him as something other than what he painted himself.

my takeaway from the bill was essentially [that its effect is] to suppress voting for ... people of color, and with that, that’s something that I fundamentally and intrinsically disagree with.

He said he supported it.
What about the other stuff he said?

I disagree. Stoning women for cheating on their husbands or people that are gay are extreme points of view.
Defunding the police is an extreme point of view.
Saying that law suppresses black votes isnt very extreme at all. The turnout rate among Black voters in Georgia saw a slight decline of 0.6 percentage points between 2020 and 2024.

Suppresses how exactly?
Posted on 7/15/25 at 1:01 pm to TackySweater
I dont know how dave roberts interpreted it to suppress black votes. That was his interpretation to make. I cant speak for him. I do see that turnout went down but that probably had more to do with overall voter turnout than the new laws.

Interesting take. Suppression of a group is an extreme stance, especially in a country where stoning women doesn't occur. So, how does this non-extreme suppression happen?

This won't fit the narrative that was being pushed a few years ago, especially when you consider who was running our country from 2020 - 2024.
Round and round we go, but don't you dare question our ever-changing narratives!

Ok. So if you don’t even know what he meant by it, how can you say it’s not an extreme view?
You said

But you just admitted you don’t even know what he meant? Lol

I thought he meant he thought the law would reduce voter turnout among black voters.
That isnt something EXTREME to say. The turnout did go down.
You asked HOW it would suppress voter turnout. Thats a different question.

You are absolutely in circles here lol

How would the law reduce voter turnout? What exactly does the law do to reduce black voter turnout? What exactly did roberts mean? You said his opinion wasn’t extreme so you must know what he was talking about.
Posted on 7/15/25 at 1:13 pm to TackySweater
Saying the voter turnout is gonna go down isnt extreme lol.
Extreme is beheadings and shite.
The only way saying the law would suppress votes could be considered extreme would be if he did it while skydiving shirtless playing an electric guitar.

You need to give details. What did roberts mean? What does the law do to make black voter turnout go down? If you don’t know what he meant, then you can’t say whether it was extreme or not.

He meant less black people would vote than if the law didnt pass.
Thats not extreme.
I think less people will show up to vote if the weather is bad. Do you think thats an extreme view as well?
Posted on 7/15/25 at 1:21 pm to Corinthians420
So you think black people are incapable of getting an ID?
Do you view them as less than across all walks of life?

Why? What does the law do to make that happen?
Why do you keep running from this question?
