For something that few of us in Michigan have even heard about?

The fools who want a civil war will end up enslaved if they survive. Their lies already testify against them.

The war has already begun. Anyone who doesn’t think so isn’t paying attention.

“while over 51 percent of Michigan’s Black residents have no real election rights”

What exactly are these 51% prevented from doing?

Election fraud is a crime, self defense is not.

Yep. We’ve convicted a fair number over the last 4 years and despite the idiocy of this story, plenty of them were white democrats.

Is it that they can’t vote because they are felons?

No, you can vote in Michigan as long as you aren’t in jail, prison, on parole or probation. They do have to ask for an ID but if you don’t show one when you vote you have to sign an affidavit.

I’ve been doing some digging on this story and it really looks like he and his supporters are just screeching for attention. They’re also angry because we have a secretary of state and attorney general who actively pursue charges in vote fraud cases.

The new “justice.” Jury verdicts do not matter. Color of skin does.

(Legitimate news) Benton Harbor's Pinkney gets 2.5-year minimum for election fraud

As the judge mulled over the possibility of prison time, Pinkney’s attorney, Tat Parish, pleaded for leniency. “We have to be careful that we don’t give the impression that we’re punishing people excessively because we don’t like them, or because we don’t like their political views or what they’re doing.” In the end, the same judge who oversaw Pinkney’s probation after his previous election fraud conviction in 2007 was in no mood to do it again.

It appears that the good reverend is a slow learner.

Most of the signs came from Communist front organizations including the Workers World Party/ IAC/ ANSWER and/or its twin the Party of Socialism and Liberation.

From the story I posted in post 17.

While the judge received more than 100 letters in support of Pinkney, said only one was from Southwestern Michigan, and that most came from other states.

It would be nice to read a factual article about this incident.
