1. Voting In TX While Black

She's lucky they didn't give her the death penalty.

[secondwind]

6. I remember this.... and she has kids, too.

[DENVERPOPS]

25. Actually

I think the next step for the Texas' legislature is to outlaw even being in Texas while black..............

They have already basically outlawed voting while democrat in the State of Texas..........Their gerrymandering is that comprehensive.

[OAITW r.2.0]

2. Out. Fucking. Rageous. nt

[gratuitous]

3. HEY! Trying to sneak in some of that critical race theory stuff?!

There could be LOTS of reasons the White people got off so lightly and the Black person got stomped by the Hobnail Boots of Texas Justice.

[lastlib]

15. yeah--she might've had an overdue library book, too!

[11 Bravo]

26. I hear she also once wore white after Labor Day.

[dchill]

4. Texas Republicans are super-abusive.

They should be arrested for domestic abuse.

[Ford_Prefect]

9. The only problem with that is TX GOP doesn't know the difference between Domestic and Common Abuse.

[BlueJac]

5. Total bullshit!

[RKP5637]

7. American Justice System. Outrageous! n/t

[monkeyman1]

8. depend's which side of the fence your on !!

[calimary]

11. And that's "equal justice" in trump's America.

[DanieRains]

12. But Kneeling At The Game Is UnAmerican

I get it.

[mn9driver]

13. The purpose is to make Black voters afraid to vote.

This is Jim Crow on full display in Texas.

[Solly Mack]

14. K&R

[catrose]

16. She filled out a provisional ballot. The judge tied himself in knots to convict her anyway.

I have nightmares because I could have been the clerk who told her to fill out a provisional ballot because it wouldn't count if she turned out to be ineligible. That's what we were taught to do in such situations.

[KS Toronado]

21. I remember it being a provisional ballot

Which makes her sentence even more outrageous.

17. Incoming VA gov Youngkin taught his 17 y/o son that voter fraud is ok.

Incoming VA gov Youngkin taught his 17 y/o son that voter fraud is ok.

Son tried twice to vote.

[2Gingersnaps]

18. And there is no such thing as systemic racism! America is all about meritocracy!

Ben Shapiro said it with a smirk so it must be true!

[MissMillie]

19. the woman in TX cast a PROVISIONAL ballot

which should NEVER, under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES be illegal.


And she cast that provisional ballot at the suggestion of a poll worker

[Glaisne]

20. The 1/6 insurrectionists got lesser sentences

commit insurrection against the federal govt as a white conservative and maybe get 3 yrs, try to vote while black in TX, 5 yrs. Absolutely outrageous! It's infuriating!

[KS Toronado]

22. Know where the racism is in our court system?

When R judges figure out you're a Democrat, they believe they have a right to punish you because you vote
different than they do. Not saying all R judges are that way but enough rotten ones to spoil the barrel.

[seta1950]

23. We need

An organization just for fighting injustices like this, solely for this 😤😤

[flying_wahini]

24. And when the Black woman ASKED before voting she was told to go ahead and vote.

Just for the record.

[BSdetect]

27. I hope she is getting massive legal help.

[Martin68]

28. This is totally fucked up.
