Great...Black Panthers stationed outside a polling place with nightsticks

Not a place I'd feel comfortable voting with my skin color.

I guess I should bring my baseball bat to the poll with me.

guy's and one had a night stick???

I'd feel more comfortable wearing my lucky T-Shirt if they didn't have those weapons:

Short of McCain/Palin it seems to me your comfort level might be
compromised just about anywhere with that shirt on. Even the McCail
Palin crew might encourage you to show some class and dump the shirt.

The news did verify that they were part of the "new" black panthers whatever they may be. And yes, I would feel better if it was two white guys with one holding a nightstick.

The all black clothes, the red-ish patch on the jacket under the heart and the beret are pretty symbolic of the Black Panther Party. I would say that they are either Panthers or they are celebrating Halloween a week late.

The cops should have been called immediately. I am pretty sure we don't need Black Panthers (or guys pretending to be Panthers) running security at our polling stations.

I wonder if they we're hired security guards needed to deal with some sort of radical element in that neighborhood???

Or two white guys with firehoses and German Shepherds?

Anyway, I don't know who those guys thought they were helping. It certainly wasn't Obama.
