This means a guy who attends a gun show one afternoon (or not) and sells guns out in the parking lot out of his van has a carte blanche.

how do you do anything without an ID?
just because it hasn’t been hard for you doesn’t mean that’s everyone’s experience

kids, jobs where it’s hard (or impossible) to get time off…and time off during the hours where the dmv is open (and enough time off to wait in line, if necessary), etc, etc

it’s also not just about IDs (which i generally do agree with), but also the closing of polling places, reductions in their hours and staff, reductions in ballot drop boxes, etc, etc

i really fail to understand why anyone that is truly interested in this being a representative democracy, being against (or ambivalent towards) the process being as easy as possible for ALL of our citizens to legally vote…not saying that’s how you feel necessarily, but it sure comes off that way
That's all fine, but the discussion isn't about polling places closing early or any of the other stuff...the discussion was IDs. If you dont have to have an ID to vote how do you control the process at all? How do you ensure the person is legally able to vote?

You need an ID to participate in society, in essentially any aspect. Requiring an ID to vote isn't so outtlandish, exclusive thing
again, i generally agree

but, if it’s gonna be mandatory, then it should be made easier (not more difficult) for citizens to get an ID…that’s my point

Oregon, Washington and California at least have even stricter laws than the federal regulations.

So, you could, in 47 States. And who knows maybe Puerto Rico, Guam and American Samoa.

Thank YOU, NRA.

in oregon the only way a gun gets transferred without a background check and through an FFL dealer is if it is transferred to an immediate family member.

Call me whatever name you want………but the bottom line is you could do whatever you want in Tennessee or Texas where the latest (that we know of) massacres happened.

Thank YOU, Republican Party?!?!?

What a country! I can't keep up! Yay us! Why would we want to change anything?

At least two people are dead and four were injured after a 19-year-old allegedly opened fire at a Mississippi home early Sunday morning, police said.

Cameron Everest Brand was arrested and charged with homicide. The 19-year-old is being held without bond.

...Upon arrival, officers found a total of six victims all between the ages of 15 and 18, four of which were taken to trauma center hospitals in New Orleans and Slidell, Louisiana.

Three of the victims were in critical condition, while the three others were listed as being in stable but serious condition.

Police said later Sunday morning that two of the victims, a 16-year-old and an 18-year-old had died after receiving treatment at University Medical Center in New Orleans...

In an office building, so that will help narrow which specific mental illness caused this outbreak.
