Blacks, women and other "disadvantaged" groups are treated like children, held to lower standards than white males, Racists say.


Racists say: Antiracists conistently hold Blacks to lower standards. This is the essence of affirmative action, like in the case of fire departments admission tests. Equally, Political corrrectness considers many Black voters incapable to procure ID, so voting laws must not require voters to present ID.

Federal court strikes down 'discriminatory' Texas voter ID

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the 2011 law carries a "discriminatory effect" and violates one of the remaining provisions of the Voting Rights Act — the heart of which was struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2013.

Texas was allowed to use the voter ID law during the 2014 elections, thereby requiring an estimated 13.6 million registered Texas voters to have a photo ID.

Section 2 of the landmark civil rights law required opponents to meet a far higher threshold and prove that Texas intentionally discriminated against minority voters.

"We conclude that the district court did not reversibly err in determining that SB 14 violates Section 2 by disparately impacting minority voters," the court wrote.

The Justice Department had argued that the Texas law, considered one of the toughest voter ID measures in the country, would prevent as many as 600,000 voters from casting a ballot because they lacked one of seven forms of approved ID.

Asking voters to present ID is a world wide standard [citation needed]. But getting ID seems an unsurmountable task for some black voters in the US.
