Voter ID law criticism is an insult to minorities

Voter ID law criticism is an insult to minorities – Monterey Herald, April 10, 2021

Let me understand this. If I go to will call at a major league ballpark to pick up my ticket and they ask me for an ID, they are racist. If I go to board a Delta flight and they ask me for an ID, they are racist. And, heaven forbid, if I choose to vote and am asked for an ID, they are racist. Of course they think Black people don’t have or know how to get an ID. What an insult to minorities. I was raised in multiracial schools, taught for years in an inner-city school. I have never met a person of color that did not have an ID.
