Bartle Bull, a former civil rights lawyer and supporter of Robert F. Kennedy, declared this was "the most blatant form of voter intimidation I've ever seen."
But the politicized Obama DOJ, Eric Holder, thought otherwise and decided not to press charges. That's when Adams quit and went public with this outrageous decision not to enforce the law.
As John Fund, a reporter for The Wall Street Journal, who gave credited RNLA as "a primary organization exposing ACORN's crimes," wrote:
In the first week of January, the Justice Department filed a civil lawsuit against the New Black Panther Party and three of its members, saying they violated the 1965 Voting Rights Act by scaring voters with the weapon, uniforms and racial slurs. When none of the defendants filed any response to the complaint or appeared in federal district court in Philadelphia to answer the suit, it appeared almost certain Justice would have prevailed by default. Instead, the department in May suddenly allowed the party and two of the three defendants to walk away. Against the third defendant, Minister King Samir Shabazz, it sought only an injunction barring him from displaying a weapon within 100 feet of a Philadelphia polling place for the next three years-action that's already illegal under existing law.
The bipartisan U.S. Commission on Civil Rights has also been investigating the DOJ and has stated:
The DOJ's replies [to Commission inquiries] thus far raise new and serious questions about its civil rights enforcement decisions, which we believe we are obligated to investigate. […]
[The Commission] noted the peculiar logic of the Department's court filing that the defendants' failure to respond was the reason for its dismissal of the case against three defendants: Such an argument sends a perverse message to wrongdoers-that attempts at voter suppression will be tolerated so long as the persons who engage in them are careful not to appear in court to answer the government's complaint.
Another important role for the DOJ is that they make sure voter registration lists are up to date and accurate as required by a law passed by Democrats and Republicans. It is the job of the DOJ to enforce this law.
Yet, regarding voter list integrity, the Voting Rights Section of DOJ led by Obama appointee, Deputy Assistant Attorney General Julie Fernandes, informed DOJ lawyers:
We have no interest in enforcing this provision of the law. It has nothing to do with increasing turnout, and we are just not going to do it.
No Justice Department, be it Clinton or Bush, has ever announced that it would be so overtly political and/or refuse to enforce a part of the law.
Democrats and Republicans alike know that without an accurate voting list, it is difficult to have an open fair and honest election. Senator and former Chairman of the Democratic National Committee Chris Dodd (D-CT) was co-author of the legislation that required these lists to be maintained and updated.
Currently the lists are full of those who have died or moved. This allows the dead to vote and the living to double vote. An example of the latter is in 2000, when studies showed that thousands of New York City residents also voted in Florida which almost resulted in Al Gore winning the 2000 Presidential Election.
The Obama Justice Department, through political appointees such as Fernandes, will stop at nothing to illegally tip the balance for Democrats this fall in the 2010 election.
The Republican National Lawyers Association (RNLA) trains and identifies lawyers nationwide on how to ensure elections are open, fair and honest.
RNLA's goal is to, in the words of Missouri Senator Kit Bond, "make it easier to vote and harder to cheat." Help the RNLA achieve this goal by donating here now.
We urgently need your help to fight these gross abuses of the Obama administration.
Without DOJ to stop voter intimidation or even to follow the law on voter lists, it is now more important than ever for the RNLA to train lawyers nationwide to do our part to ensure that elections are open, fair and honest. However, the RNLA needs your help to make this happen. The Obama DOJ is refusing to do its job. It is becoming the political arm of the Democrat Party. By refusing to enforce laws passed with bipartisan support that were designed to prevent vote fraud and by ignoring and some many say condoning selective voter intimidation, it is undermining the integrity of our electoral system.

Poll Watching
And another thing...dress and behave in a sympathetic manner. Don't show up in camo, too sloppy or too over dressed either. This will just fan the flames of the leftist media, i.e. their claims that we are rednecks (as if there's something bad about that! - it's origin is just sunburns on farmers) ignorant, or rich. All of these things make you seem less sympathetic in the eyes of these morons. Look neat and meek to emphasize the difference between honest, law abiding, Americans and these thugs. We have to be above reproach in our confrontations - any videos should speak for themselves.
I bleed red, white & blue, so be sure to get in good an close with your video cameras. :) and protect the camera and it's memory card from being taken!
Voter Intimidation
I'm so glad to hear the Editor's response. I've been thinking about what I would do to prevent this for months. FYI, I'm a 5'5" 140 lb female, but I am not afraid of these thugs. I welcome the opportunity to beat them at their own game.
Please, everyone bring your video cameras to the polls. And join me in watching the polls. If I see any thugs, please record the thugs and my confronting them. I'll give them an earful and if there is any violence, it will be the thugs who throw the first punch. I am willing to confront and take the first blows of assault to stop this.
What has happened to courage in this country? No generations in the past would have stood aside for so long and watched as these vile crooks and communists took over. Everyday I ask, "what will it take for the bullets to start flying?" No PC BS will intimidate me. It's time to clean house. Remove this cancer in the Capitol, in Hollywood, the "news" media, education, mosques, black separatist "churches", ... everywhere. We have to make them so ostracized that they won't dare organize or even whisper their evil beliefs in this country ever again.
Self Protection
Obama's administration has made it clear to "we the people" and to the thugs of the Black Panthers that they have nothing to fear from law enforcement or the judicial system.
It is time for the young men of America to attend the polls with their elderly parents and even aquaintences. Be prepared to protect them. Even if it means losing your life or your freedom. The battle must begin somewhere and by someone. No better place than in defence of our elderly and all of our rights to vote.
The panthers really don't want to piss off the average white man. Especially united groups of white men.
I hate discussing things in terms of color of people's skin. But, they are the ones who go by the name "black".
Meaning, it "is" all about race for them. We are the only ones damned by society for speaking of the "good" of our own race.
black panthers
in case anyone hasn't noticed...look whom we have as our president..and you haven't see anything yet..3 more years?? God help us all.. a muslim president.. and hates white Christians.... plays the blame game..Wake up America!! oh by the way check out how much money michells brother got from you the tax payers..plz God let America see,
our men and women are fighting in other countries for those people to have the right to vote..and look whats going on at our voting places..i be damn if the plack planthers would have stopped me... i would have had something to stop them..WAKE UP! WAKE! UP people..
racial discrimination
Everyone speaks about racial discrimination, and for decades we have been dealing with this problem. Great advances have been made to stop racism in this country, and people like Martin Luther King Jr. spent a major part of his life, and in fact gave his life fighting racism in America.
Today I find that it is not the whites that bring up this racial subject. It appears to be the blacks that are constantly reminding people of how they are being mistreated, and that they feel they should have more of everything society has to offer handed to them.
We are finding more blacks that are raciest than whites, and I wonder why that is. Today racial discrimination is against the white man. Blacks are given privileges that white men never had. Just one example; “an adjustment of test scores to allow a black man a higher grade over a white man, to enable them to take a job, whether it be on a police exam or some other form of federal employment exam.”
It’s the white man that is now being discriminated against. Can’t we just stop looking at the color of each others skin or the nationality of a person and live together in harmony? The way we treat each other can’t even be compared to “as living like animals”, as animals themselves have shown a better way of living together peacefully than man himself. We should be taking lessons from our animal population when it comes to discrimination.
There is always going to be a few that spoil it for the rest and that will never go away, but let’s not let those few allow this racial issue keep us from living in harmony. Let’s rise above this damaging issue in society, and make America a better place. End racial discrimination forever.
In the end we are all Gods children.
God Bless All,
An American
Voter initimidation
This is truly sad. What will it take to force the DOJ to do it's job??? Obviously there is a serious hidden war being wage on the American People, yet they are asleep!!!. This war is in the form of Marxist who have taken control of the White House, and it's key agencies. They are removing signs of the true America systematically (Look at new DOJ site). They will be telling us what to think soon.
Wake up America
Voter intimidation
I'm a 56 year old man that spent six years in the service of my country while in the US Army and have also spent over 30 years training in self defense.
I would hope that one of those black panthers voter would have been at one of the polling places I vote at.
They are truly cowards that would run from someone who would confront them.
Editor's Response: This is exactly what we urge to be done. We believe that American's should form roving poll-watching teams and openly confront these people. Look them in they eye and then walk around them into the polling place to offer help. It is only with blood that our nation was founded and it is only with blood that it will perservere. Be proud if the first blood to flow in preserving the free right to cast a ballot is yours or mine.
Voter intimidation
Is there no one who can stop this from happening?
What are the chances of winning back the house and the senate with all this fraud and Obama folks all looking the other way?
This is ridiculous, I just can't believe that this is happening in the United States of America! We need a hero, someone to challenge this crooked Chicago style political machine and to help take back the country from the progressives, are you out there somewhere?
RESPONSE FROM EDITOR: Stand up, strike back, meet poll monitors head-on. Go there. Confront tyranny and put yourselves on the line. Wait for radio announcements (or even form your own poll-roving groups) to seek out these anti-voting goons and confront them. Meet them face-to-face and look into the whites of their eyes, then challenge them by going into the polling place and offering your assistance. Do not back down. Do not let fear of their stature and appearance stop you. The cost of freedom is oft' said to be blood in the streets. Be prepared to give your own blood first. It was only by the blood of patriots that our nation was formed and will endure.
