Identification? We don't need no stinkin' identification.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department’s civil rights division on Monday objected to a new photo ID requirement for voters in Texas because many Hispanic voters lack state-issued identification.

Texas follows South Carolina as the second state in recent months to become embroiled in a court battle with the Justice Department over new photo ID requirements for voters.

Photo ID laws have become a point of contention in the 2012 elections. Liberal groups have said the requirements are the product of Republican-controlled state governments and are aimed at disenfranchising people who tend to vote Democratic — African-Americans, Hispanics, people of low-income and college students.

A Cook County court judge initially dismissed Zokhrabov’s lawsuit against the boy’s estate, ruling that Joho could not possibly have anticipated Zokhrabov’s injuries.

But ruling in what it called a ‘tragically bizarre’ case, a state appeals court disagreed.

It found that ‘it was reasonably foreseeable’ that the high-speed train would kill the college hopeful and fling his body toward a platform where people were waiting.

The courts in Illinois are corrupt and sick.  An accident is an accident. The legal system and the lawyers who exploit it are disgusting.
