10. Roberts may be setting the future for voters showing up to vote without knowing about

voting in America is once again a decision by the State and not explained by Act supporting the real meaning of the Constitution, therefore people at the voting places can be perceived to be there illegally. To me that would mean that your papers, can be legally searched outside of the voting box and you can be turned away or jailed on suspicion of violating a State Law. A State Militia is under the 2nd Amendment can be called to police the voting area.

The Texas Legislative upper floor gallery had a small comparison expression of the 1st Amendment, Tuesday, June 25, 2013. Looks like several Amendments, public law and State law are going to be played against one another during the coming election. Looks like Congress will do nothing about the Roberts Resolution until after the 2014 elections. If Congress does not act to return voter rights, then they need to be voted out of office in my opinion. This should be a big 2014 Campaign Issue.
