Sad loss of objectivity, Miss Objective Reporter. "When the Public Safety Elections Task Force ratified the law that may protect Trayvon Martin's killer and other unarmed victims in 2005". Why don't we at least wait until the jury convicts him.
As for Wal-Mart, McDonald's, Wendy's, etc. dropping ALEC, that is there business. I just want it known, that "unarmed" does not mean "lack of overwhelming, life threatening force." If a person has me or my wife in a life or body threatening hold and I know that I have no other recourse, I will shoot them. In our town, a man was killed when shoved to the ground roughly, striking his head. People have been kicked to death and strangled. According to you, Miss ObjRep and other opposers of the SYG law, the victim had no right to defend themselves with a firearm (had they had one). So sad.
In the first paragraph you say "perpetuating unfounded fears of "election fraud," a spectre also raised by right-wing media"
The rest of the article refers to voter fraud. I agree voter fraud is not a problem but election fraud is a huge problem. I was involved in exit polling in last years recalls and believe we won two more of those races than we were credited with because of the findings of the Election Defense Alliance.
I love the work that CMD does and just thought I'd point this out in case you'd like to change it.
