Standoff! Nation of Islam confronts Secret Service
WorldnetDaily ^ | 5/30/2010 | Stewart Stogel

NEW YORK – Secret Service agents and security officers of Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam engaged in what the White House called a "standoff" near President Barack Obama's Chicago home last night.

Obama, who is spending the holiday weekend in Chicago, decided to pay a visit to a friend, Marty Nesbitt, for an old-fashioned barbeque.

Nesbitt, however, is a neighbor to the controversial Farrakhan, and that is when problems began.

According to White House press pool reports obtained by WND, a group of reporters were staking out the Obama family and were holding on a city street in front of the Farrakhan mansion.

At one point, the Secret Service allowed reporters off the van they were traveling in to get some fresh air.

About a dozen journalists congregated on the sidewalk in front of the Farrakhan home, which quickly prompted a visit by a so-called "polite man," who asked the group "to stay off the grass," though the White House pooler insisted they were on city property.

The Farrakhan agent eventually asked the accompanying Secret Service officer to "move the van and its occupants," an interaction that soon escalated to a contest of machismo between Nation of Islam officers and the Secret Service.

The secret service should have done the nation a favor and shot every one of these black muslim racists dead.

To Bad the SS did not take out the nation of Islam, Louis Farrakhan and William Ayers. arrest both of these scum bags and give them the waterboard treatment and suddenly the Chicago way will crumble. people whom were afraid will no longer be afraid, and things will happen for the good. getting rid od the scum in chicago and I am not talking about the chicago river.

The Nation of Islam “OFFICERS” should be arrested for acting under the color of authority, or something like that, no pun intended.

IIRC Obama wqs asked once during the campaign about his relationship with Ayers and he described him as "some guy who lives in the neighborhood."

"Who Are the People in Your Neighborhood?"

Very nice of the Fruit of Islam to make their identities known. This will save time in the future.

The article reads like a satire, for goodness sake. Is this a confirmed story, I wonder? If so, this is unbelievable. Trouble is brewing on the streets of Chicago, and Obamanation is responsible for much it. It is clear from reading the article that the Nation of Islam is feeling very empowered since the “pretender to the White House” was elected President.

I don’t see how this country can go much longer without a civil war. It’s just not working anymore.

A slight niggling, but an important one IMO...

“Former United States Ambassador John Bolton called the incident “unbelievable.”

Agree!

4 SS agents to 22 Fruits of Islam. That’s not good. There were 22 Fruits standing around waiting to come to the aid of Farrakhan?? How many more were inside? Obama had talked about making a private military force when he came into office. Is this the beginning of it??

“My money is on the 4 SS.”

I would hope you are right. The agents were definitely at a disadvantage here, and lots of ways for one or more to be hurt.

Since Ayers is not mentioned in the article, would it be safe to assume that you’re making that part up?
