Is ‘badge’ some sort of gang-slang? Where were the polling officials? I bet that 911 call tape disappears...

The poll watcher should have stayed.
A simple “So what? You have no authority here, and I’m calling the police to report a man with a weapon in a polling place... before I sue your ass for assault.” would have caused the idiot in question to shut his mouth.

Doesn’t matter - MI will go to Obama and black turnout is even higher in 2008.

I saw a photo of an election judge wearing an Obama cap.
lol.
We are going to see 100% turnout in the major cities where nobody showed up to vote. Just an inkling.

Michigan Republican Party Chairman Bobby Schostak issued a statement concerning the issue the following statement: ... I am calling on Mark Brewer, Democratic Party Chairman, to condemn these threats of violence and pledge to ensuring all election workers, volunteers and citizens remain safe. Mark Brewer condemn "threats of violence?" Fat chance of that one ever happening.

I would love to hear the full 911 call.
Are Detroit cops so overworked that they cannot respond to a threat of a firearm? I know the Milwaukee police only respond to violence calls now (others you are told to come to the station to fill out a report), but a gun threat?

Liberals are tolerant people . They tolerate everything unless you disagree with them and then they try to kill you.

Why would anyone really be surprised.
The cops are not on our side. They are union. They are in the pocket of the Democrats, of course.

Its enormous in Detroit and the suburban neighborhoods around it and that’s true all over the country. Blacks are even more motivated than in 2008 to vote for Obama. They can make a difference in states where they have significant electoral clout - like MI, VA, NC and IN. Not so much in OH, which Romney may be able to win.

Where did you see this reported? Or is that just you surmising?Surmising from the reports of people finding that someone had already cast their votes for them. This must be how the Democrats cheat and bring down the electoral system at the same time.

Rather than allow the situation to escalate, the poll watcher left before the voter produced a badge or brandished a gun.That was his mistake. He should have stood his ground. If he was a poll watcher then he had a right to be there and should have stayed and made his 911 call from right there.
Why are these poll watchers abandoning their posts when someone looks at them crossways???
To: IC Ken
Not to worry. When Romney wins they will burn Detroit down.
But then if Obama wins they'll burn Detroit down too. Pretty much whatever happens someone burns Detroit down.
