Who doesn't have access to a ballot box that is an American citizen over the age of 18 and not a convicted felon?
I think you missed a key part.

My statement doesn't need proof...
My statement was "My first example of a freedom would be equal access to the ballot box." That's not even claiming that people don't have equal access. My latter statement did that. English you idjit. But seriously, if you're too lazy to go check the state of voting rights in the country you don't care that much about freedom.
I'm out for 6 hours.. i might return to this to this thread.

I'm waiting to hear who doesn't have equal access to vote in America who is a citizen of 18 years or older and not a felon. So by all means, please tell me.

So your statement was to provide something that everyone already has and that's an example of what modern liberalism gives us?
If only modern liberalism would actually limit itself thusly...

The majority of good things provided by the federal government were first provided by one or more states.
The federal government is not innovative. If we eliminated states rights and only had the federal government to rely on, we would get very little innovation.
This is a fact.

You're functionally illiterate aren't you.
But seriously. if you're too lazy to go look up the state of voting rights in America you've got no claim to be worried about freedoms.

Dude, it took you 30 hours to find this sham of a reference to your pointless point and you all ME illiterate?
There's a good reason why I call you Remedial - but of course, even with that moniker I give you too much credit.
As for the supposed denial of voting rights you posted about: God forfcukingbid voters be required to prove their identity. Seriously, is there no end to the lengths Democrats will go in order to get Eppy Quinonez, his 7 kids and all the other illegal aliens to vote for them? Is there no end to the lengths Dems will go to get Shaneequa Johnston and all her 5th generation welfare neighbors to yank the big (D) lever 78 times each?
Seriously dude, I don't believe you even knew about this stupid joke of a pointless point when you started this thread (especially since you admitted you weren't even claiming voters were being denied the right to vote) nor do I believe that you were capable of finding this link on your own. Why don't you tell us who PMed the link to you, it ought to make for a good laugh.

Liberals think freedom means they get what they want. If they want to vote 78 times then who are those evil conservatives to stop them. They want freedom; which means everyone is a slave to their wants and desires.

There are three kind of liberals;
Stupid, ignorant or evil
The result is always evil but the intent is not always evil. Not that it makes much difference in the long run.

What does that have to do with anything? That's a sad situation, which shouldn't happen, but it seems to have various solutions. Wheelchair? Absentee vote? Make sure you have all your documentation before you go to the DMV? Nobody is out to deny these people the right to vote.
