Black Panthers with clubs - Good.
Words they don't agree with - VERY bad.
Somehow that's not shocking.

Nothing wrong? Standing outside the polls with clubs, the intent to turn voters away who might not vote for your candidate? There is nothing wrong with this?

Maybe from the times in the past that you've posted about it? You didn't deny it anyway. Someday when I have nothing better to do I'll look for an example or two, but for now I think people will just take my word for it based on your "they did nothing wrong" attitude. If you can't see that they did something very wrong, you're not exactly glowing with credibility.

How do you know what their intent was?

Apparently those that matter agree they did nothing wrong.
I'll be waiting for proof of your accusation btw...

I don't really think they need to be holding a sign expressing their intent when they are dressed in para-military garb and carrying billy clubs standing outside a polling place.

YouTube - "Security" patrols stationed at polling places in Philly

I don't think they're just standing there waiting for the bus, do you??

No weapons are allowed at polling places on election days, period. Yes, the New Black Panthers violated the law and were charged. New administration drops the case when it should have been convicted. The New Black Panthers didn't even contest the charges against them by the previous administration's DOJ.

OK, but you gotta make it worth my time. I would have to go through nearly 6500 posts of yours, and that would take me a few days. So if I do that, and I can produce the proof you want, would you be willing to take your total lack of credibility and leave the forum?

Let me know.
