17. Oh the outrage is there alright
And actions are being taken in order to either eliminate this regressive law, or at least to mitigate its effects. The trouble is that it isn't getting national coverage(suprise suprise) and the local corporate news outlets are downplaying it. Still, there is a lawsuit going forward, and our Secretary of State, Robin Carnahan(daughter of the late Mel) is doing her best to mitigate the effects of this, sending out mobile ID stations, going to peoples' homes etc. to make sure they have the proper ID, free of charge.

Meanwhile protests are going on in the capital, we've even had Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton in state protesting, but again, due to the corporate controlled media you barely hear about it inside the state, much less outside of it.
