Hey Under 21 Crowd: ID Cards Are Unfair

Democrats in Indiana sued in federal court yesterday to overturn a state law requiring voters to show a form of ID before they vote.

Critics say requiring a photo ID at the polls unfairly affects the poor, minorities, people with disabilities and the elderly, many of whom do not have driver’s licenses and might struggle to obtain a photo ID…

The law offers free photo ID cards for those who cannot afford a driver’s license and makes exemptions for some people in nursing homes and state institutions…

I wish this excuse existed when I was under 21 and trying to get into bars. I could have sued on the same grounds, saying that it affects poor college students.
