The fact that it can be hard to get to specific government buildings to access these ID's doesn't mean these citizens aren't worthy of the right to vote. 

I don't understand when laws are created to target Native Americans who live on reservations, invalidating their previous legal addresses. Or why the a candidate for governor of Georgia can legally dismiss tens of thousands of voters, 80% of color, in the year before the election. I question why 30 states introduced stricter voting laws prior to the 2012 election after Black voter turnout increased in 2008 or when 2 swing states that shifted R to D in 2008 (after a 10% increase in early voting) decided to cut early voting by half. 

It doesn't add up to being worried about illegal voting. It seems to be a worry about legal voting of groups of people they oppose. 

Perhaps we should wait until it becomes a problem; at no time did I state anyone wasn't worthy of voting. I simply said with this right should come a degree of responsibility; if you disagree that's your opinion.  

Well I did say purging should not be targeted, so we could address that.

So why not look to hone the process instead of suggesting it be dismissed?
