The 15th amendment: How does it apply to arguments over whether voting is a right or a privilege?

That 'fundamental right' is afforded to citizens of a certain age--not just anyone that shows up at the polls. It is incumbent on the government to provide for a secure process to ensure that persons ineligible to vote are not allowed to vote.
Your shifting the argument is a failure. You said universally there was no right to vote. My evidence by the SCOTUS says it is a right. You don't like it, make an appointment with Chief Justice Roberts.
 
I never said I opposed it. I said it was irrelevant.

You would understand the difference if you were not a retard.

How did you get so ******* stupid, moron? Were you just born a FAS baby, or did you huff a lot of paint? Or what?
You oppose it and don't understand it. Run along to Mommy and cry.

You speak for yourself there, bitchboy.

However, you cannot speak for yourself regarding the topic because you are too retarded. That's why you C&Pd a bunch of irrelevant AI shit. You are too stupid to speak for yourself regarding the constitution that you never read.

How did you get so stupid, bitchboy?

LOL, please link to the post where I said that. You are unable to keep your conversations straight. You make a lot of assumptions -- this isn't the first one. Come back when you are not so confused.

You said it above. No, you are not permitted to shift the argument. Voting is a right. SCOTUS says so. Period.
 
wtf does that even mean given the constitutional context?

take a break and go rest
Given that you don't know the difference between an amendment and a law, it's not worth explaining it to you.
 
:rolleyes:

We have a constitutional right to keep and bear arms.

There is no constitutional right to vote.

You would have known that had you simply read the US Constitution BEFORE you started a thread about it.

15th post
Somebody I am acquainted with posed a question. That question was - if one supports a national voter list, do they also support a national gun registry, and if not, why? I see people jumping through hoops on this one, performing gymnastics feats that are trumpian in nature.

So, it got me thinking: What do people believe the 15th amendment is all about? What sources (if any at all), do people use to from their opinions?

There is no constitutional right to voting. You just cant be turned away from voting for a few specific reasons.

It came about only because democrat policies are so radically unpopular that non citizens are their lifeblood
 
SCOTUS says it is a right. Proven.
They said the constitution does not guarantee a right to vote, as it is not mentioned in the constitution, as the founders wanted it left to the states. All the constitution says, is you cant be discriminated against for a few, specific reasons.
Thats what they ACTUALLY said.
They also called it a "fundamental political right"

Is voting a right?

Yes — voting is a right. But it is a conditional right, not an absolute one, and the Constitution protects it in a specific way.


How the Constitution treats voting

The U.S. Constitution does not originally grant a universal right to vote.Instead, it assumes states run elections and then adds amendments that prohibit discrimination in voting.

Those amendments include:

  • 15th Amendment (1870): No denial of voting based on race
  • 19th Amendment (1920): No denial based on sex
  • 24th Amendment (1964): No poll taxes in federal elections
  • 26th Amendment (1971): No denial based on age for citizens 18+
Once a state grants the franchise, these amendments protect it as a right.
