Facefwd.com <> The charges stemmed from an incident at a Philadelphia polling place on Election Day when three members of the party were accused of trying to threaten voters and block poll and campaign workers by the threat of force - one even brandishing what prosecutors call a deadly weapon.
The three black panthers, Minister King Samir Shabazz, Malik Zulu Shabazz and Jerry Jackson were charged in a civil complaint in the last days of the Bush administration with violating the voter rights act by using coercion, threats and intimidation. Shabazz allegedly held a nightstick or baton that prosecutors said he pointed at people and menacingly taped it. Prosecutors also say he "supports racially motivated violence against non-blacks and Jews."
The complaint says they hurled racial slurs at both blacks and whites.
A poll watcher who provided an affidavit to prosecutors in the case noted Democrat Bartle Bull, who worked as a civil rights lawyer in the south in the 1960's and is a former campaign manager for Robert Kennedy, said it was the most blatant form of voter intimidation he had ever seen.
In his affidavit, obtained by FOX News, Bull wrote "I watched the two uniformed men confront voters and attempt to intimidate voters. They were positioned in a location that forced every voter to pass in close proximity to them. The weapon was openly displayed and brandished in plain sight of voters."

When will conservatives have balls and REALLY FIGHT those who are destroying USA? That's the big question, isn't it? I'd say we're pretty close, judging from comments I'm hearing from many quarters. Our 'progressives' are mid-air over the shark right now.

Next time, voters should be equipped with Mace, Tasers, Clubs, and 357 Magnums. My initial reaction was to agree with that, but then I realized, the voters sided with the terrorists this time. How can we be sure they won't side with them again next time?

A spokesman for the Department of Justice told FOX News, "The Justice Department was successful in obtaining an injunction that prohibits the defendant who brandished a weapon outside a Philadelphia polling place from doing so again" Stunningly good legal work there, Bucky! Your department managed to get an "injunction" to prevent someone from doing something that is already illegal. Whoever did the bulk of the work on that part of the case CLEARLY has a Supreme Court nomination in THEIR future!
What idiocy.

Minority racism is getting out of hand. It was always there near the surface, cloaked in complaints about “white oppression” at the very smallest transgression or simply what appeared to be a transgression against minorities.
