International election observers planning to visit Texas polling places have “full immunity” from being arrested in the United States, the State Department said when discussing a letter from the Texas Attorney General.
“I’m not going to get into any kind of hypothetical situations or predict where this is going to go other than to say we have every expectation that this will be worked out and to state the fact, which is that under U.S. law they are eligible for immunities,” said State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland. Reporters tried to get her to state explicitly that Texas could not arrest election observers from the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), but Nuland would only reiterate that OSCE observers have full immunity.
Attorney General Greg Abbott, R-Texas, warned OSCE that it “may be a criminal offense for OSCE’s representatives to maintain a presence within 100 feet of a polling place’s entrance,” as The Hill noted.

The noisy “conflict” I think could happen is not a noisy “conversation” conflict, althougn there could be lots of shouting during the conflict.
They are interfering with a lawful election process. They damned well better be arrested.
Screw the incompetent morons at the State Dept.
The State Dept?
who gives a damn what they say?

Piss on Hillary (The Bitch ) Clinton.
Don’t arrest. Just shoot.
as if the US was some kind of third-world cess-pit like Zimbabwe.

Well, we are on the way to that.Unless the Obummer movement can be stopped.
Isn’t it weird? Observers in Austin Texas? Just like there were in Obama’s Kenya in 2007/2008. Kenya was a test bed for this election. I wonder when the rioters will be called out when Obama loses.The surprise will be that this is not Kenya here.
Like to see the Texas AG tell Hillary, “If you want to try to stop me, why don’t you come to Texas, where we will show you some REAL hospitality....”
“Full immunity”? Will these UN folks be raping and molesting as they do in worn torn and turd world nations?
The United Nations is a horribly corrupt organization of anti-semitic anti-American dictators. No wonder they love Obama in the White Hut.
“...State Dept: Texas can’t arrest international election observers...”
Texas says otherwise.
What a giant middle finger to the UN!! I love it.
When I die, bury me in Texas, Mom... God love ‘em, there’s still AMERICANS there!!!
or they will do what? based on bengazi, the administration is nothing.
We can “detain for questioning” until the polls close.
Works for me...
And yes, I’m completely serious. Nab those little MoFos on sight.
Texas is the wrong state to enter and cause trouble in.
arrest them and lets the courts sort it out
Bingo!
