Not Florida again!! No!!!!

I really look forward to the term hanging chad entering the lexicon again if Florida still uses those punch ballots in areas. I was too young to appreciate the insanity of the 2000 election so it would be interesting to see it happen again.

It was so much more than just punched ballots. There is a lot of revisionist history about it too. With the way fox news is playing it now, they completely ignore that 4 counties submitted requests for a recount, but denied because a Geb Bush lead government did not see their reasoning of unusual result numbers as justifiable. The very party that today is fighting to make sure all votes are legitimate, denied recounts to counties in Florida. Not a request by Gore, but counties them selfs. Instead of the cries to make sure every vote is legitimate, we had cries of 'this is taking too long'.

So I found out this morning that there are still people who think the GOP has done absolutely no voter suppression this election. Instead I was pointed to now debunked black panther intimidation in Pennsylvania.

It's going to be a long day.

That is nuts. Big black men scaring white folks from voting? Is this the fucking 1800s? It's annoying that it was justified enouph to be debunked. People saying it should figuratively be tared and feathered. It's 2012, a big black man just standing there, should not be scary. It's such backwards bullshit...

How about one on the ballot and not just standing there? How intimidating is that? Scum bags...

Actually a 'known member of the black panthers was seen close to a polling station'.

OH LORDIE NO! HIDE THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN, SOMEONE GAVE THE NEGROES THE VOTE!

Not so much that he's black as it is that he's a member of a racist black nationalistic group (who hates white people with a passion)

You'd be cool with a white guy in sheets hanging outside a polling place?

False equivalency AHOOOOOOOOOOOOOY

[vastx]

Please. Just....please.

Google "black panther party kill white"...

Or, you can link a source for your claims, as the burden of proof is on you.

They are black separatists. They want nothing to do with white culture or white society due to the injustices of the past 400 years. They are pretty marginalized and fragmented group though, I would be a lot more scared of the sovereign citizen movements and the 800 new right wing ideology movements that have sprouted up in the past four years. Watch out for the unemployed middle-aged white man.

They are black supremacists. They hate everyone else. And from their rhetoric, white people and anyone else should be concerned for their safty. Just as minorities in America should be concerned when it comes to the KKK or skinheads.

So do members of the KKK have the right to vote or not?

Unless they have no right to vote you can't really prevent him/them to vote.

And honestly unless he does something wrong he has every right to stay their hell it doesn't even seem he is protesting.

At this point you should be more worried about republicans preventing people from voting.

Saw a video of that guy. He looked so intimidating, holding the door for those elderly lady voters.

Meanwhile, while there have been no actual complaints lodged about the Panthers, a judge has had to order the True The Vote crew to stop pestering people in line for their IDs.

Wait, we're calling false equivalency on that? How is a white-hating extremist group better than a black-hating extremist group?

No, they are not black supremacists. They are black separatists, they want a separate society away from whites. They want to have their own governing body and mores. They don't hate white people, they hate the system and the oppression of the last four centuries. Actually, I don't think there are any active "black supremacist" groups in the US.

A black guy who may be moving towards the polling place to cast his vote is different than a white guy in KKK garb trying to intimidate voters or w/e.

I imagine that most people won't know that that the 'black panther member' is a black panther member.

The Panthers are at least willing to show their faces. :P
