those fucks keep re-arranging districts to get rid of the last few bastions of blue in the state so they can steamroll democracy. there is much more to this argument then simply showing ID.

Republicans are pretty much dirt on my shoes as far as I'm concerned. Democrats might not be perfect or even close, but at least they arent trying to destroy this country.

Gerrymandering, changing district lines has been going on since the 1780s, Patrick Henry tried to shape Virginia's House district lines to block James Madison from serving in the first U.S. Congress.
I know there are times when it has to be done, because of people moving and some counties growing a lot faster than others, but I'm against this practice for the soul use of getting themselves re-elected.
Republicans and Democrats do this and it's wrong.
They are even counting prisoners in prisons as non voters, to up the population to help move lines in their favor. I was living in Nor Cal when they shifted the lines and come voting day, most people didn't know where to vote because they had been going to the same place for over 30 years. Someone finally parked their car there and handed out maps.

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
