BREAKING! SEALS have arrived at polling places in Phillie where Black Panthers are intimidating voters! God bless our Navy SEALs! #Romney
http://blogs.phillymag.com/the_philly_post/2012/11/01/seal-team-november-6-philadelphia-black-panthers/
Former Navy Captain Benjamin Brink is leading the operation. “The nation saw the video of members of the Black Panthers in Philadelphia intimidating people trying to vote in 2008,” Brink told me when I interviewed him during my radio show on IQ 106.9. “We are going to try and make certain that nothing like that happens this year.”
Brink claims to have over a hundred former Army Rangers, Navy Seal, Delta Force, Green Berets and others who have volunteered for duty. The idea of Navy Seals and Black Panthers getting into it at a Philly polling site gives a whole new incentive for casting a ballot. “Our guys aren’t easily intimidated,” adds Brink.
Don’t let the bravado fool you. The mission, according to the Captain, is to observe and report, not to engage. “We are going to watch for intimidation, videotape it, if possible, and report it to the proper authorities

Well, I hope so, but it is a “claim”.

Hopefully, the law enforcement, judicial side, Gop majority in PA have prepared for some sort of incident.

The reports say the Courts ordered the GOP back into the polling places, with Sherrif escorts. Ok, so, is there any proof that that has happened? Is that lone Black Panther still standing there?

Arguably, that black panther is just apparently standing there, and other than looking intimidating, is he actually saying or doing anything? If not, this is just a nice media stunt...

Heck, some guys could dress up in scary pirate outfits, mostly in white, and do the same thing. Or, is loitering around a polling station illegal?
