Kobach faces hostile questioning at Wichita meeting

[proud2BlibKansan]

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach faced hostile questioning and frequent interruptions during a public meeting he held Thursday afternoon in Wichita to discuss new voter laws passed last year by state legislators.

About 30 people attended the meeting at the Sedgwick County Extension Education Center, 7001 W 21st St. Most of those who spoke accused Kobach, who had sought the changes, of using a relatively small number of suspected cases of voter fraud to make the voting process more complicated and inconvenient in order to suppress voting by some segments of the population, including the poor, elderly and minorities.

Kobach denied that suppressing votes was his goal, and he argued that the changes would be easy to comply with.

One man said he was troubled more by the hassle and inconvenience the new laws will cause, resulting in voter suppression, than by a few fraudulent voters.

He received applause when he said, “It’s not the job of government to mess people up and dictate to us. It’s to facilitate and serve the people, and it’s about time the Kansas government started doing that and make this stuff go away.”

3. It's time to vote these psychopaths out of office permanently.

Then we must teach an entire generation of children how to recognize sociopathy and pschopathy and teach them to teach their children, so this DOES NOT happen again.
