Even in circumstances that have nothing to do with voting, how can you pay fines if you don't know how much they are?

The mind boggles.

"Literacy tests" that were impossible for any human to pass, "poll taxes" that were imposed only on black people attempting to vote, etc., all kept black people from voting until Congress and the Supreme Court made these laws unconstitutional.

The Republicans are putting all the evil back. African Americans vote Democratic. There are lots of African Americans living in the South. Do the math.

Amazing how the GOP can have me siding with convicted felons over them.

Who said anything about paying their dues, or forgiveness, or, for that matter fairness? In any GOP run territory -- any territory -- the idea is to squelch, to put down and keep down, anyone who isn't white and rich or, if not rich, white and stupid.

"Paid their dues" is a fairy tale told by an idiot. "A boot stomping endlessly on a human face," is the GOP's message to us all.

Kick all the bastards out in 2020, and hound them into oblivion.

On September 28 Crystal Mason began serving a five year prison term for casting a provisional ballot in Texas. Her three children are left without their mother because Crystal had a felony in her past related to taxes.

Gillum and Nelson were robbed. Locating polling places inside of gated communities, providing too few voting machines in urban districts and many other dirty tricks plus conducting an election in the wake of a devastating hurricane all contributed to the repugs stealing that election. Kemp purging voter rolls in Georgia.

They never do anything good unless their arms are twisted and their necks in a chokehold. This is just pure fuckery to screw the citizens of this state. I really hate DeSantis and the rw goons who pretend to represent anyone other than the extremely rich.

The war on poor people never stops.
