Default Black Panthers intimidating voters?

BREAKING: FOX reporting Black Panthers intimidating voters in Philadelphia HillBuzz

Report: Black Panthers Intimidating Voters in Philly | Bob McCarty Writes

I'm looking for actual news sources confirming this but I don't really expect Obama's waterboys (NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, PBS, and CNN) to report this. So far, this is all I can find: Broken Machines, Shortages Plague Voters Around the Country - FOXNews.com Elections

"I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up."

The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.

"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

Look for Associated Press or Reuters coverage. Many of the new media reprint their stories and they usually check for legitimacy due to vulnerability to law suits.

African American extremists may end up in some incident like this if it looks like Obama is losing or has lost, but the same possibility exists for white racist extremists, such as White Nationalists, skin heads, neo nazis, KKK, etc...

Yes, of course, the regurgitation of news from one or two sources. Neither of them have picked this up.

I disagree that the same possibility exists for these white groups because the media and law enforcement are more likely to watch out for them (because of past history).

The police already solved the situation which is an isolated incident. Seems like the right's last dying breath to try and influence the voters toward their way.

By logic you've used before the individuals being "intimidated" are choosing to be intimidated, so it doesn't matter at all.

Except that the Black Panthers are not right wingers. No matter how you slice it, a big black guy standing there with a night stick is intimidation.

Yes, it was an isolated incident but you know damned well that if it had been a skinhead, KKK or neo-nazi group doing it the media would have been all over it!

How come the "left-wing" media did not pick up on the 3+ million votes thrown out during the 2004 election?

Why is a big black guy with a nightstick intimidating to you? Don't you have a gun to protect yourself from that kind of thing?
