  • You are probably just trolling, but your point is not entirely wrong. If you have been advertising your house as the land of the free, and specifically compare your house to other houses that aren’t free, it changes the picture a bit. Then add on that you let anyone from your neighborhood trash talk your house, but anyone from outside the neighborhood that you invite in you don’t. That would be pretty unreasonable.

    But let’s get it a bit closer to what is happening. You actually post rules at the door of the house. They say not only are you allowed to trash talk the house, but there is an appointed 3rd party who’s job it is to decide if you broke the rules before any punitive action is taken. But then once inside you ignore your own rules and the appointed 3rd party’s rulling.

    And one more step to get closer to the real case. The person wasn’t even trash talking your house. They were actually trash talking a different house on the other side of the neighborhood. One they actually lived closer to than you. And one that nearly the whole neighborhood says is in the wrong.

    Now you are closer to what is happening.

    And I know a serious answer probably wasn’t needed here, but on the off chance, I wanted to support serious discussion on opposing opinions.






  • Yes and no. The issue is really with the difficulty and time it takes to get these ids. Not to mention the expense. The poorer a person is, the less likely they are to have the correct id. And make no mistake, the Republicans know this, and they know that poor people favor democrats. Same with mail in voters. So their effort to make this rule is not one of common sense, but stratrgic value. They are just trying to put up obstacles that making voting hardrr for people who don’t vote from them.

    And really, what should be addressed is the difficulty of getting id. But noone wants to pay for that. This causes some people to have to travel significant distances on our meager public transit system which can take many hours to go 15 miles. And again, the poorer a person is, the less likely they are to have a car to drive, or the money to uber, or the time away from work to get to these places and even attempt to get the id.
