It just comes down to how someone defines the word gamble. I've always considered gambling to be an activity that exposes you to high levels of risk, but if you consider any type of risk to be gambling, I guess life is a gamble. Breathing, eating, drinking, moving & not moving all expose you to...

There's risk associated with just about everything you do in life. Look at what happened in Venezuela. I'm sure they had a lot of citizens that put every single penny they ever saved into a savings account. Then when hyper inflation hit, they lost the vast majority of their net worth. Even if...

It depends on what your definition of the word "gambling" is. Most people associate the term with an activity that has a high level of risk. There's risk in just about everything you do, but the level of risk varies greatly depending on the activity. Trading is very similar. There are gambling...

If you want to purchase a firearm from a retailer, you have to show an ID and pass a background check to prove that you're qualified. If you want to carry a concealed weapon, most states require a CCL to prove you're qualified. There's nothing wrong with requiring someone to prove that they're...

Brave is an excellent browser for IOS or android. I use chrome on my desktop. I run adblock with a good antivirus program, and I haven't had a virus for years. I don't like the fact that Google gathers personal data, but I assume that everyone does that regardless of whether or not they disclose it.

Polling places could issue temporary voter ID cards to individuals that have misplaced theirs on election day. All they would have to do is bring alternate forms of ID to prove they are who they say they are. As long as their voter ID is scanned into the database, it would prevent them from...

Why wouldn't they be able to win the cases in court? Most criminal offenses can still be prosecuted even if they're committed out of ignorance. I would assume that most of these cases could be won unless they had insufficient evidence that a crime was committed. I would expect that type of...

It will deter her from voting twice if she scans her voter ID card and it comes up that she has already voted.

I never said that. I just linked that article to show that many people end up avoiding felony charges whenever they're convicted of voter fraud. Paying a fine & doing community service isn't going to be a strong deterrent to this type of behavior. I don't care where voting fraud comes from. It...

Cheating is much easier than you might expect. Step 1: Check obituaries for recently deceased. Step 2: Check a phone book or online to find address of deceased. Step 3: Use name & address online to find out if they're registered. Step 4: Show up to their polling place to cast a vote in their...

Probably quite a few. But I doubt that there are several thousand with the exact same middle name and date of birth.

https://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-texas-voting-lawsuit-settlement-david-whitley-20190427-story.html I haven't seen the Ohio numbers you mentioned, but the Texas numbers were found to be greatly exaggerated because they flagged every naturalized citizen that had voted since 1996. They've...

That claim was ridiculous. He just didn't want to admit that he lost popular vote.

They may be correct. I've never studied the database claims. But voter fraud still exists at a higher level than many want to admit. Here's what a simple google search turns up from the 2016 election: https://www.politico.com/story/2018/08/24/voter-fraud-2016-foreign-nationals-charged-795704 19...

https://www.heritage.org/voterfraud There have been over a thousand criminal convictions for voting fraud.

I'm glad they caught him. Voter fraud threatens the integrity of our democracy regardless of who the vote is cast for. That's why we need voter ID laws. We also need to purge the voter rolls periodically so that dead people don't have the ability to vote.

I sure would be fun to find out. ;)
