Politics Multiple sources confirm AOC owns a Tesla, parked it illegally in front of the Whole Foods

[Natebishop3]

Don't know, don't really care.

I just know that we have vote by mail and do a very good job of running it.

Look at the history of ballot measures in this state. The outcomes show that we're not as liberal as many think we are. Ballot measures do a great job of getting people to think outside of their political party leanings. It also shows that a quality republican candidate can win.

If the dems run a former or current Portland mayor or head of Metro for governor I'm not sure they would win. And early polls looks like that is exactly what the dems are going to do.

They could run a corpse and still win, as long as it's on the Dem ticket.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

They could run a corpse and still win, as long as it's on the Dem ticket.

With the protests and vandalism in downtown Portland and the homeless problem I think enough dems will not support a former Portland mayor or Metro president to make a quality repub candidate win.

It's the same argument it always is.

lesser of two evils. They will never vote GOP. Never.

Freakin Kitzhaber was under investigation and still won.

I'm saying if those states want dipshits like Mitch and Lindsey that's on them.

But more importantly, lets make voting registration and voting easier. Making voting more accessible but be the easiest way to get rid of dipshits.

I disagree.
I'm all for allowing anyone who legally has a right to vote.

We recently moved last fall, so I had to go through the voting registration process. It's not hard in the least. Yes, you have to provide documentation that you are who you say & where you live - but that should be standard. Why do some consider voting registration so difficult?

If people are not engaged enough to put minimal effort into registering - then I have a hard time believing that they are engaged enough to understanding who/what they are voting for. I'd argue that's a receipie to get MORE dipshits in office.

Some states will revoke your DL for not paying a fine or ticket. Revoked DL means no valid ID. No valid ID means can't vote. Fines are a civil problem. A civil problem should not prevent you from voting.

That is false. You can have a valid ID without a valid DL in any state.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

That is false. You can have a valid ID without a valid DL in any state.

No, some states will not issue ID of your DL is suspended until fees are paid.

 

[tlongII]

No, some states will not issue ID of your DL is suspended until fees are paid.

No, it is false. Most people associate that with Texas. I just checked and it is false. Now you might get arrested if there is a warrant out for you, but otherwise you can get an I.D. card.

 

[tlongII]

Per lawyer in Texas...

"You should be eligible to get a Texas ID but just beware that if you have warrants you may be arrested."

 

[SlyPokerDog]

No, it is false. Most people associate that with Texas. I just checked and it is false. Now you might get arrested if there is a warrant out for you, but otherwise you can get an I.D. card.

Wasn't talking about Texas.

 

[Phatguysrule]

Given the costs of campaigns this idea is dead in the water. Until you fix that - you are going to be limited to a very select group of candidates and the established players get an unfair advantage.

If there are term limits for the presidency - there should be for congress and the judicial arm.

Publicly funded elections FTW.

 

[tlongII]

Wasn't talking about Texas.

Then who were you talking about?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Then who were you talking about?

Listening to what the citizens of Ferguson, Missouri were protesting about after the Michael Brown shooting.

 

[tlongII]

Listening to what the citizens of Ferguson, Missouri were protesting about after the Michael Brown shooting.

Dig a little deeper than just listening to what a bunch of protesters are yelling.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Dig a little deeper than just listening to what a bunch of protesters are yelling.

WTF?!?

Come on. Really?

 

[Orion Bailey]

WTF?!?

Come on. Really?

thats your response? Your taking the word of protestors without looking up or referencing the state rule of this and you say wtf to him for saying to look deeper?


Wtf?

Yes, that is my response. I apologize that it did not meet your standards.

I didn't have time to give a detailed response to what I feel was a reply that was not really looking for one.

Yes, I listen to what protesters are protesting about. I feel that is the only way to judge whether their protest has merit.

I did this with the BLM and read in detail their Broken Windows website and legislative action that are being taken in different cities and states.

I did this with the different protests over the election results last Nov.

And I did this with the Ferguson, Missouri protests. It was interesting at the time because Ferguson was 70% black but the vast majority of elected political leadership was white. The police department was majority white. How does the leadership of a community not reflected the citizens of that community?

There were many articles written at the time and have continued to be written since. There does seem to be a very high rate of voter disenfranchisement in Missouri.

I can provide links to articles about this if you would like to read them.

I did not and still don't feel like this is a discussion that Tlong wants to have. He does seem to want to talk about Texas which to be honest I know nothing about their voting procedures and if widespread voter disenfranchisement occurs.

But again, to answer his question, I do not and have not listened to video or audio recordings of the protestors in order to form my opinion there is a with voter disenfranchisement.

Again, I apologize that my reply to tlong was not acceptable to you.

first, please stop apologizing to me. You know it goes nowhere with me and i believe its all patronizing fluff..

Second,what does anything you just said have to do with the complaint about missouri not giving ids out to people with suspended dls?

because you listened and studies protests?

not trying to speak for tlong but your response didn't solidify tour stance at all.
Anyhow, if you have any info on it, id love to read it because if it is true thats messed up.
But like i said, i cant find anything about it, admittedly in my limited search, regarding this.

do you have it?

I don't trust protestors any more than i trust cops. All have an agenda and most skew things to slant towards their narrative.

the state however has nothing about this complaint on their sites that i can find.

I apologize for apologizing.

I think there is a big different in listening/researching/reading what a group is protesting about vs being told by a person who is critical of the protests what they're protesting about. I think that is a fair way to see if the protests have merit. And for the record merit does not mean I agree or support them. Just trying to figure out what is going on, what are they upset about, what are their desired outcome.

Anyway...

Getting an ID: Will the DMV Check for Warrants? - FindLaw
Created by FindLaw's team of legal writers and editors | Last updated May 04, 2020

Warrants for your arrest can happen for a number of reasons. Admin mistakes like never receiving court date information or missing court due to scheduling conflicts can happen. Whether you accidentally or purposefully avoided court, arrest warrants can be an extra annoyance to already tedious legal situations.

If your new court date is weeks away but you need to renew your license now, it can be confusing to know how your local Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) will treat you.

Will the DMV Check for Warrants When I Try to Get a State ID?
Yes. The DMV will check to see if you have outstanding warrants or a bench warrant. They may have a Department of Public Safety (DPS) officer on-site.

This is a tactic that some cities use to arrest people with outstanding warrants. Still, the most common way to get caught for a warrant is being pulled over while driving and the police officer running your ID information.

Can I Go to the DMV With a Warrant?
Yes, you are free to go there and you will be allowed in. But the minute you hand over any form of identification card or they run your information, they will see there is an active warrant out for your arrest.

From that point, they can:

• Call local law enforcement
• Signal a plainclothes or DPS officer to approach you
• Deny your services until the warrants are handled

Can You Get an ID Card/Driver's License With a Warrant?
No, it is unlikely that a DMV employee will give you a new license or renew an old one if you have a warrant. The majority of state policies say that driving or traveling are privileges for people without outstanding warrants. And officers at government buildings, airports, and bus stations will check your ID against the national police database.

The same applies for a passport, passport card ID, or getting a Real ID. Applying for most new jobs will require a background check that includes a warrant check.

If you are avoiding handling a warrant, you should know it can prevent you from driving, traveling, or job hunting.

How Can I Get an ID If I Have Warrants?
Dealing with the warrant first is your only option. You may need to pay outstanding fines, attend a court date, or speak with a judge or probation officer to clear the warrant.

If you are unsure what the problem is and if a warrant is still out there, a criminal law attorney can look up your record and explain your options.

A police department can also look up your record, but then they will have you on the phone and may know where you are. Their job is to go and get you, whereas an attorney's job is to make sure your rights are protected and you get the best outcome possible.

What to Do If You Have a Warrant Out for Your Arrest
A warrant does not disappear on its own. They last forever and go across state lines. Your only options are to take care of it by:

• Turning yourself in (with or without an attorney by your side)
• Wait for the police to find you

Arrest warrants are common for legal issues such as misdemeanors, traffic violations, vehicle registration issues, unpaid traffic tickets, probation violations, and driving with a suspended license.

A "traffic warrant" is another name for a state warrant asking police to bring you into the local precinct.

Will the DMV Check for a Warrant in My State?
The majority of state DMVs will run a check for any outstanding warrants. A DMV office is a government building. They have a duty to uphold the law by screening drivers for good vision, ensuring they can legally drive, and making sure people with warrants get them handled. However, how strict they are on these rules can vary from city to city.

State-Specific Rules Around IDs and Warrants
You can be arrested from any place if there is a warrant out. If you are on private property, the police may need additional warrants. Since a DMV is public property, you can be arrested at the DMV in any state.

All states are legally instructed to handle arrest warrants the same way. However, whether the DMV employee calls the police to arrest you depends on the individual offices. It can depend on the staff at your particular police station or courthouse, or it can vary between rural areas and cities.

Some DMVs have an officer on site and will arrest you on the spot, while others may do nothing.

Handle Your Warrant Before Renewing a License
A criminal defense or traffic ticket attorney can offer legal advice. You can choose to hire them and form an attorney-client relationship. Then, they will defend the charges, fight to lower the fines, and have the warrant lifted.

Many attorneys can answer your warrant-related questions during a free consultation.

Note: If you have a felony warrant out for your arrest, you should hire an attorney. These warrants are taken very seriously and you are likely facing a serious criminal defense case ahead of you. Protect yourself by starting the process with an experienced attorney that you trust.

Dude. I specifically challenged the statement that you can’t get ID without a DL. That is patently false. If you want to bring up ancillary arguments go ahead. But you’re right, I have no interest in discussing anything political with anyone on here. It is unproductive in my opinion.

No, I said this...

No, some states will not issue ID if your DL is suspended until fees are paid.

Which is supported by the articles I posted.

I didn't say you can't get ID without a DL.

Lots of people can and do that.

Again, I said some states will not issue ID if your DL is suspended.

 

[Lanny]

Nah, Jesus doesn't play that. He is all about turning cheeks not tables.

When I worked at Boeing I once worked with this guy who was a minister on the side. Really nice guy and although very Conservative because he could see how I cared for the less fortunate. Anyhow, one day he says to me that Jesus didn't say to turn the other cheek to everyone just fellow Christians.

 

[Lanny]

I do not like the all or nothing approach. Term limits make sense and should be implemented, but they should be done in such a way that people have enough time to get good at their job.

So, 2-3 terms for the senate for example and 5 terms for congress or a combined term of 20-25 years for both is a good place to start if you ask me. It allows the good people to get good at their job - but it also allows more fresh blood and good ideas to come through. Same idea, btw, should be applied to judges.

I don't like anyone telling me who I cannot vote for who is otherwise qualified. If I can vote, then I can vote for anyone I want within reason and no one in my past has a right to limit that right.

 

[Lanny]

Given the costs of campaigns this idea is dead in the water. Until you fix that - you are going to be limited to a very select group of candidates and the established players get an unfair advantage.

If there are term limits for the presidency - there should be for congress and the judicial arm.

Personally, I don't like a term limit for the President. If he's ever convicted of a felony or gets mentally ill, okay, but otherwise I should get to choose. Also, Sly is right, if you want someone else run a better opponent.

 

[tlongII]

Some states will revoke your DL for not paying a fine or ticket. Revoked DL means no valid ID. No valid ID means can't vote. Fines are a civil problem. A civil problem should not prevent you from voting.

No, I said this...



Which is supported by the articles I posted.

I didn't say you can't get ID without a DL.

Lots of people can and do that.

Again, I said some states will not issue ID if your DL is suspended.

No you said the first item I quoted above which is not true.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

No you said the first item I quoted above which is not true.

Yes

And Norm Powell just flushed that ball because I'm right!

Note: If you have a felony warrant out for your arrest, you should hire an attorney. These warrants are taken very seriously and you are likely facing a serious criminal defense case ahead of you. Protect yourself by starting the process with an experienced attorney that you trust.

So from what I'm gathering, There is no law prohibiting someone form getting an ID with a suspended license. But if your license is suspended because you have a warrant, then you are unable to get an ID. I see no issue with that. If you have a warrant out for your arrest it is because you have been in violation of a court request or order, thus breaking the law. A that point, the individual has given up their voting rights by not following the procedure. Just like felons who cant vote.

I still see nothing about not being able to get an ID if a license has been suspended but the individual is a legal and is simply paying dues for a wrong. Only those with warrants.

I do like the first line saying warrants for your arrest can happen for a variety of reasons, and the first one given is admin mistakes. Not due procedure of being in violation of something.

That's petty funny and misleading, leaving it seem as though most warrants are issued in error.

Anyhow. Nothing stating a person cant get an ID to vote with a suspended license.

It also says outstanding fines. Not paying a fine for a non-criminal matter should not result in not being allowed to vote.

We didn't get rid of poll taxes, we just reinvented them.
