re: Is racism gone in Georgia now? Did they change the voting laws?

I would say canceling the game or canceling the Braves season would be extreme. Moving the game is just moderate.
There have been 94 MLB all star games played. A total of 2 have been moved due to external factors. Once in 1981 due to the player's strike. The second in 2021 due to the voting law.
But yea, totally not an extreme reaction

Lol.
No. He found maybe a more extreme action so he can say, “see this one isn’t that so it’s not extreme!!!”
While the underlying reason is what he keeps denying. The reason is the actual extreme view/action but he keeps running away from addressing that.

What underlying reason? What is extreme about stricter voter ID meaning lower turnout? Wouldn't that just be obvious?
Are you of the opinion stricter voter ID would increase turnout?
That is all for the poli board. We are discussing a baseball manager in this thread.

What’s stricter about it?

SB 202
New ID Requirements: Replaced signature matching with voter ID requirements for absentee ballots, meaning voters now need to provide a driver's license number, state ID number, or a copy of an acceptable voter ID.
Shortened Request Window: Reduced the time voters have to request an absentee ballot.
Drop Box Restrictions: Limited the number of ballot drop boxes and restricted their locations to inside early voting sites during office hours only.

Where’s it say that it only does this for black voters? Did you leave off some of it?
Posted on 7/15/25 at 4:44 pm to TackySweater
There is a higher percentage of black people without ID. So a law requiring ID will effect a higher percentage of black people. Or do you deny simple math?
An estimated 1.86 million Black non-Hispanic Americans (6.2%) and 1.86 million Hispanic Americans (6.1%) lack a photo ID.
Approximately 4.5% of those identifying as Native American, Native Alaskan, or another race also lack photo ID.
This contrasts with lower rates among White non-Hispanic Americans (2.3%) and Asian, Native Hawaiian, or other Pacific Islander Americans (1.6%) who lack photo ID.

Hmmmmmm. You must have left some of the bill out again.
Where does it say that black voters CANT get an ID?

Spoken like someone who doesn’t understand the concept of disproportionate impact.

Nowhere. Black people can get ID. A lower percentage of them have one. White people can get ID too. We dont all have one either.
Now that Ive explained the underlying math can you tell me what is extreme about Dave Roberts statement? As the math shows, he is correct that a law for stricter voter ID would affect ~6% of black voters as opposed to ~2% of white voters nationwide.

No, YOU have made the thread about extremism.

Might wanna reread the thread. I was not the one to introduce extremism to it. It was reiterated by many after Lake08 that Roberts had extreme views. Every time I stated he did not they doubled down on how extreme he was.

How did black people not have the pride to riot against white liberals for even suggesting that?

Why do you think they are incapable or inferior rather than they just dont feel like getting one?

So you dont believe that less black people of voting age possess IDs as the data suggests?
Posted on 7/15/25 at 5:02 pm to Corinthians420
Sure
I believe less percentage of white people own a rap album. But I don’t think it’s because it’s inherently harder for a white person to get one

If they just don't care about getting one, as you have now asserted, why would this data be any bit relevant to the topic?

Good example. If they made a law that required you to show up with a rap album to vote it would disproportionately affect elderly white people.
It wouldn't suggest elderly white people were incapable of buying rap albums.
