Interesting that opposition to Real ID is coming out of mostly rural and more conservative states first.
Perhaps this is related to those states generally not requiring registration of firearms thus they view a national ID as just more of the same type of governmental control.
BTW, Happy 60th, Kalash.
It’s a strain of conservativism not often seen in today’s political landscape: the traditional conservative. NH is the “Live Free or Die” state. ME is typically Democratic, but still northern New England common sense– prhaps one of the few to realize that there’s little conservative about the neocons? Montana has its own, different reputation for libertarianism.
But I wonder why VT and MA aren’t on that list?
