    Your response is all I need
    You argue about a law that only thing you know about is what MSNBC or CNN say. I asked your issue with the law and you can't answer typical lib rebuttal.

    WTF you talking about? My first 2 posts in this thread discuss (some) issues with the law, as does another poster's. Pretty clear. The rest of my posts have been exclusively directed at the big lie of a stolen 2020 election.

    Its not my fault you can't follow along.

    I'd rep. you both, but I have to spread it around.
    I'm a fan of Brad Raffensberger (SOS) and Gabriel Sterling (his chief elections official), as well as our LT. Gov Geoff Duncan - all three have stood up for the law. And, as a Democrat Georgia voter, both Raff and Duncan have won my support in the next election. Believe it or not, I became a fan of former Governor Nathan Deal - as he continually stood up against things like this bill and understood what was in the best interest of the people and not a party.

    For the Dems on the board, do you think MLB or any other sports leagues shoplifting get involved in politics?

    Well, since the Supreme Court determined that corporations are afforded the same rights as people (money=speech), it's their right. You can't court their support thru political donations and then get all pissy when they disagree with you.

    Well, sports have been political for ages, but yes, I agree that this move by MLB is dumb, and it just hurts the people of Georgia (several Dem politicians have already expressed their displeasure with the idea of a Georgia boycott for that very reason). The NBA being woke regarding America, but totally turning a blind eye to China is also horrible. The NFL essentially allowing rape and abuse go buy as long as you can play the game, too. But in the end, these are private companies, and they can chose to do what they want.

    I wouldn't do it if I were the commissioner, because wherever they move the All-Star Game to is going to have some bad laws on the books too and make the MLB look hypocritical.

    It would be one thing if the Braves or the stadium had sponsored and lobbied for the law, but otherwise you're punishing the wrong people here.

    Feel the exact same!

    Not sure I understand your question, but if it brings awareness to the general public - I'm all for it. It spawned a discussion on here of all places. Quarantine happened because the NBA shut things down. You aren't going to separate politics and sports at this point in our society.

    Also, money talks. Let the state lose enough revenue and changes will occur.

    Not a Dem, but everything is political. You can choose to not participate, but that's why you conservatives lose all the time on everything for decades. Keep running on your "Durr business good gubmit bad cut taxes moar" though as your civilization crumbles.

    They'll probably move it to NY where the governor has a couple scandals going, but it won't matter bc it's a blue state.

    Agree. They won't find a "pure" state, just like the wokes won't, and the Republicans who cry "RINO" about everyone who isn't in lock step in their party won't. It's constant circular firing squad.

    Doesn't matter who said it. Requiring voter ID is not voter suppression. You can't do hardly anything without ID. Been doing it my whole life.

    Yes people are illegal voting and it favors one side. The one party system is what the left wants. Obvious as anything. When will folks wake up. I guess too many are woke up.

    I?m a moderate republican man and this law in GA doesn?t require a id. People need to understand that. If it did we wouldn?t be having this conversation.

    Exactly - Georgia has had voter ID for over a decade. the ID/SS # requirement for absentee is not a bad idea - I thought was a a flaw in the GA voter ID for years. They also did some good in lengthening early voting. But, the law blatantly creates some openings for abuse by the State Elections Board, made runoff absentee and early voting more difficult by shortening timeframes, and created a huge window for chaos with the clause allowing voters to challenge validity of another persons vote without proof.
