Way back in 2016, Texas was assured by an appeals court that [u]photo ID is racist[/i]. Even a free voter ID is just too burdensome for the poor to obtain, and minorities are more likely to be poor; therefore, ID is racist. The Fifth Circuit determined that “the poor are less likely to avail themselves of services that require ID, such as obtaining credit and other financial services. They are also less likely to own vehicles and are therefore more likely to rely on public transportation. As a result, the poor are less likely to have a driver’s license and face greater obstacles in obtaining photo identification.”
So here we are in 2022, and Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bower is reminding citizens that they’ll need a photo ID “before heading out.”
Mayor Muriel Bowser ~ Remember that starting Saturday you will need these three things before heading out:
1. Proof of Vaccination (12 years +)
2. Proof of Vaccination and Photo ID (18 years +)
3. Mask

Erick Brockway ~ Wait. Requiring ID is racist.
Princess Consuela Banana-Hammock ~ IDs are racist ... did you not get the memo?
Torrey M. Spears ~ Great. Now do voting.
Beth Baumann ~ Since you're okay with showing a photo ID to get into a restaurant, you support IDs for voting, right?
Eve Brady ~ What do I do if I’m one of the repressed, urban folk that can’t get an ID? Ya know, like for voting and stuff? Is that okay?
Curtis Houck ~ #JimCrow, @MayorBowser!
