I see that you are trying to purchase a ticket to The Land of Fu. I know exactly what you're doing. The fact that we are even having a discussion about perceived DOJ neutrality and how white people might not be getting a fair shake when it comes to policing voter suppression says everything. I was formally calling you out on your bullshit and telling you to own the conversation you are pushing. Hypothetical my ass.

And someone needs a Leap to Conclusions Mat to then assume that it means I do not acknowledge that there is systemic racism in a million small ways, just because of the sole example of what was *one* particularly egregious case of reverse racism, that was in fact prosecuted.

Yes of course. Your statement about how you'd be angry if another case like the Ike Brown one
wasn't pursued
isn't an indication of what is actually happening in your head.

I absolutely believe that voter suppression is a bigger issue than voter fraud. And I agree that we need to re-evaluate felon voting rights or think about the consequences before making changes like reducing early voting days. And the DOJ should go after changes to laws that do have the intent or effect of suppressing the vote, and not encouraging the adoption of such rules (that will ultimately hurt the GOP anyway. I tend to agree that the GOP base is dying off, and they need to diversify, and Trump/Sessions is a move in the exact opposite direction if they want the party to survive. The future supply of angry white people is limited.)

Great! Then why the hell are we discussing a case in which the DOJ
actually addressed the suppression of white voting rights like that's a thing that needs attention? Why was the next point you made about the perception of the [uninformed, ignorant, dumbass] electorate that the DOJ isn't neutral?
