    What’s up with people expecting the government to issue a licenses for explicit constitutional rights?

    Oy! Where’s your permit to peaceably assemble?
    Hope you gotta a loisence for that news paper!
    Let’s see some ID before you vote.
    Oh you don’t want your home to be a barracks? Hope you paid the appropriate fees and filled out the forms.

    Pure liberalism.

      Wait, how does that work then ? Because here in France you have to show a “electoral card” to vote. It requires virtually zero effort to get though, and I assume it helps a lot with fraud

        In America voter fraud is a myth. Gerrymandering and buying the blue and red candidates that will do what you want is much cheaper, easier, and perfectly legal. We do have to register to vote, but beyond that there is no other requirement for voting.

        The push for voter ID is more for disenfranchisement under the guise of fraud prevention.
