A View From Europe: An Italian Jurist’s Observations About The New Black Panther Case
The Bulletin ^ | 10-31-10 | Rosa Anna Tremoglie

Posted on 10/31/2010 2:06:30 PM PDT by Miami Vice

The controversy surrounding the New Black Panther Party voter intimidation case is disconcerting. The allegations that the Civil Rights Division of the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) is not enforcing civil rights laws in a race-neutral manner is disturbing on several levels - as a European, an Italian, a woman and a judge.

The accusations made by two Justice Department attorneys who worked in the Civil Rights Division ...

And we can ready ourselves for part 2 of intimidation. An earlier thread said the panthers were going to go back to the polls. Hey, if they can keep getting away with intimidation and the obama admin supports it—who’s going to stop it?

This time people will be more active in reporting all their hostile intimidations
and the Republicans had better get rid of Holder or whoever gives these punks all the passes. In fact get rid of ALL democRAT operatives. Don’t be generous like Bush was. Kick ‘em to the curb.

...hmmm....I always thought Sicilians “took care of problems” privately; without having to bother the courts.

This is an excellent article. I hope Rush reads it in full on air tomorrow! It’s very sad that this case is showing the entire world what racism in America really looks like these days — unequal protection for whites when blacks violate voting rights laws.

The saving grace, as it were, of the NBP case is that the incident is on video, in full. NO ONE, whether here or anywhere in the world, can watch that video and not conclude that that man’s conduct was intimidating, intended to be intimidating and, therefore, a violation of the law.

There is no way around it. There is no explanation for why such a case would be dropped for “lack of evidence.” There is more damning “evidence” in this case than in 95% of the criminal cases that go to conviction and harsh sentencing every day.

I sure hope people also video everything going on around the polls, too. Especially the NBP.

“The sense of guilt felt by those in the Justice Deptartment does not help minorities. Quite the contrary, it promotes racism.”

NAIL ON THE HEAD!

Anyway we can nominate her to the Supreme Court?

It’s a simple solution really. If you see one of these people, you call 911 and report a man with multiple weapons at the poll site. When the cops show up the mouthy Black Panther will take care of the rest.

Means nothing to Obama. He'll say the author is just another stupid white European.

Birther moonbat, everybody knows the Founders were inspired by the vestige of feudal serfdom they'd just fought a war to throw off. /s

The Euros understand the concept of race based intimidation quite well and have learned to spot a demented dictator. They also likely see the black liberation theology as vastly similar to the tenets of Nazism. And it is. I am quite sure that at some point, this has to be gotten under control or this racist cancer will go viral and we will end up having Asia and Europe attack us ot put a stop to it.

I once stated that Hiroshima and Nagasaki would never have happened if the Japanese government or Emperor had put a collar on the war crazed generals, or if Germany had paid stricter attention to waht was going on with the doctrines of the groups that were forming. Go figure, both governments failed and one country got nuked and the other, well, Dresden. Hitler should have been shot as a traitor for trying to overthrow the government, but instead got a cushy prison sentence where he could write his philosophy and then infect the nation when he was elected as chancellor.

These panthers are getting a frightening level of legitimacy and if they do start attacking whites, nothing will stop them from going insane and picking fights with Mexico, Asia, Europe, then having each and every one attacking the US to put a stop to it. The military isn’t crazy enough to support an invasion, any invasion, but I am sure that nothing would stop Obama or the right elected crazy from trying.

Foreigners and Euros are often the butt of a joke, but they knwo fascism when they see it.

No the Founders took much from the Romans and the Greeks. Read Madison’s nots on the debates on the Constitution.

Also read the Federalist Papers. There is a reason one called himself Publius.

One other thing - why do you think there was a Society of Cincinnatus? Do you know who Cincinattus is?

People like you give conservatives a bad name.

I just hope no innocents are harmed in any confrontation crossfire. Who knows, maybe the Panthers are itching for a confrontation and will see it as an excuse to escalate any situation into a riot. It coudl well be that the Panthers WANT something to happen and want to have an excuse for a good old fashioned riot. This time with Obama in charge and having an excuse to seize more power. The one strength we and the police have is to either smile and wave and monitor, or simply shoot one mouthy militant and then string him up as an example.

Some of us on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean find the alleged actions by the Justice Department puzzling.

Some on this side of the Atlantic find it puzzling too...
