The New Black Panthers at it again!!!

The video I saw was pretty clear, two white old ladies having a door opened up for them by a man who smiled at them as they walked in.

 

Those tools bombarding me with flyers for their cousin running for office and yelling their names bother me but it's their right no?

 

You are certainly right, but some stereotyping is unavoidable.

 

We are clearly watching a different video, because you never see their faces or hands, just jackets, pants, gloves, purses, and caps.

 

If they are within a certain distance of the polling location, absolutely not. If they are doing it within their legal limits, than unfortunately yes. It doesn't make them right, but it is their right and we have to tolerate it.

 

So why tolerate it by removing people because they look "intimidating"

 

I don't think it's fair to call it "stereotyping" when you say someone in military garb is "intimidating."

 

Because we shouldn't make people feel uncomfortable to vote. Why do this in the first place?

 

Do you mind if we dance with yo dates?

You're right, that's what the guy in 2008 was doing/did. But for the record, being anti-Obama is the public position of the NBPP.

There's a pretty stupid anti obama rant from their leader which I'm not even going to bother to post here and dignfyt it which you can find - but according to the wingnut alternate reality, these folks are the heart of Obama's vote subversion operation. Which is just incredibly dumb.

 

And they properly removed him.

 

They probably do this for the publicity.

 

Do we have evidence of a single actual voter in that area that felt intimidated by this guy? I know we have random camera phone guys filming to make it a scandal and lots of people across the country thinking it would be scary - but has any actual voter said this was disturbing to them?

 

Remember the last time a group of black men showed up to help defend the voice of a few?

Not that I'm aware of. Certainly what is intimidating to middle class white america could be quit different than urban Philly.

 

That's what I'm wondering - and what's intimidating on video where we only get one perspective may be different than what it looks like in real life.

 

I assume the point is to deter other people who might try to intimidate or trick people at the polls. If they see some malfeasance, they could go up and get involved to protect the voter's right to vote.

 

Onion headline:

[rquoter]Republican Voters Voicing Complaints About Intimidating Black Man On Ballot [/rquoter]

 

Considering their body count is like 1000x higher, I'd probably hate it.
