Here's a question for the DU body politic:

If someone were waiting in line, or “on the queue”, as they say, is it illegal for someone to bring him or her water to drink?

Asking not for a friend, but for the voters of several of the “Colonies”.

I would also wish to take this opportunity to say that as a former Pennsylvanian, I am sick to my stomach that two miscreants are running for statewide office. The Nazi Mastriano makes former Republican Governor Tom Corbett look like Mahatma Gandhi and Dr Oz is a tinhorn snake oil salesman. 🤮

6. Don't know how that law is actually written

but I've often wondered if it would be legal to "sell" voters a hot dog & water for some outlandish
price like a nickel. That or park a pickup full of sandwiches & water with a "Thou shall not steal"
sign on it and when the cops harass the driver as to what he's up to, they'll inform the cops they're
video taping all these no good Democrats who are stealing your food and that you'll be filing charges
tomorrow after they get through stealing all your food. More than 1 way to skin a rabbit.

What's next no free umbrellas to get out of the sun?

On a more serious note, we are what we accept. There is only a power game of deprivation in this scenario. It is the bully at work.
I read the results of a study that claimed only 7% of Americans wanted to be the boss.
If we stand for inhumanity and the power that comes from that, we will rule until humans respond.
I, for one, will not stand for inhumanity as it is against being human.
That is, in essence, all we have. Humanity or not.
If I die defending humanity, only the remaining humans will look on with admiration.
The inhumanity in others will feel success in defeating humanity.
Feed the poor.

furthermore, if the wait will be long, there should be a way to hold one's place in the queue in order to use available public facilities to answer nature's call.

also there should be voting places in every precinct so the wait will not be that long.

i hate republicans.
