On Tuesday this week, residents of ten separate states got to vote in GOP primaries. Also that day, the law was applied in Tennessee for the first time. Thompson was ready to see how the state would act when he tried to vote, so he brought cameras with him. The result was uploaded to YouTube

within hours and reveals just how disenfranchised one veteran feels by a nation he fought for. A fight, adds Thompson, he waged to protect the very rights now being stripped away.

"In the State of Tennessee, it takes a driver’s license, passport, government-issued ID or gun permit card to cast a vote. College students looking to vote are even denied that right by offering just identification from a state school. Instead it takes a gun license or other, often difficult to obtain identification card to give them that right."

So come November this is what some American citizens will be running into when they want to vote :top: :nope:
