NEW BLACK PANTHER PARTY ABOVE THE LAW WITH BLACKS IN POWER
"Now, according to news reports, it appears the Justice Department's political appointees did in fact play a role in the dismissal of this case," he said.
In January, Justice filed a civil complaint in federal court in Philadelphia against the NBPP and three of its members. Two NBPP members, wearing black berets, black combat boots, black dress shirts and black jackets with military-style markings, were charged with intimidating voters, including brandishing a nightstick and issuing racial threats and racial insults. A third was accused of managing, directing and endorsing their behavior. The incident was captured on videotape.
A Justice memo shows that the front-line lawyers who brought the case decided as early as Dec. 22 to seek a complaint against the NBPP; its chairman, Malik Zulu Shabazz, a lawyer and D.C. resident; Minister King Samir Shabazz, a resident of Philadelphia and head of the Philadelphia NBPP chapter who was accused of wielding the nightstick; and Jerry Jackson, a resident of Philadelphia and a NBPP member.
Witnesses said Mr. Samir Shabazz, armed with the nightstick, and Mr. Jackson used racial slurs and made threats as they stood at the door of the polling place. The department's injunction against Mr. Samir Shabazz prohibits him from displaying a weapon at a polling place until 2012.
Mr. Jackson was an elected member of Philadelphia's 14th Ward Democratic Committee and was credentialed to be at the polling place Nov. 4 as an official Democratic Party polling watcher, according to the Philadelphia city commissioner's office. A check of his MySpace Web page shows similar taunts. It also shows him in numerous poses with a variety of weapons.
Records show Mr. Jackson obtained new credentials as a poll watcher "at any ward/division in Philadelphia" just days after the charges against him were dismissed.
None of the NBPP members responded to the charges or made any appearance in court.
Four months after the complaint was filed, at a time career lawyers who brought the charges were in the final stages of seeking actual sanctions, they were told by their superiors to seek a delay after a meeting between political appointees and career supervisors, according to federal records and interviews.
The delay was ordered by Loretta King, who was acting assistant attorney general, after she discussed concerns about the case with Mr. Perrelli. Ms. King, a career senior executive service official, had been named by President Obama in January to temporarily fill the vacant political position of assistant attorney general for civil rights while a permanent choice could be made.
She and other career supervisors ultimately recommended dropping the case against two of the men and the party and seeking a restraining order against the one man who wielded the nightstick. Mr. Perrelli approved that plan, officials said.
None of the front-line lawyers has been made available for comment, and the department has yet to provide any records sought by The Times under a Freedom of Information Act request filed in May seeking documents detailing the decision process.

I wonder what kind of response we'd get if every one of us and everyone each of us knows sent a fax/letter to the whitehouse demanding an explanation for why this wasn't prosecuted more fully ??(read: was swept under the carpet)
I wonder if it had been the KKK out there, would things have been different?
The KKK would have been arrested IMMEDIATELY. Double standards are the norm in this new, wonderful society,

Surely they know this, and are preparing to hi-jack the elections. If they even permit them to take place. I'd expect a huge amount of voter fraud and intimidation.
This will likely be the point that Americans will rise up in arms.

I live for the day somebody named Shabazz threatens me with nightstick.
Jeez, I hope you're not predjudiced against people named Shabazz.

I doubt if they will consider the 3 November 2009 elections important enough to mess with, so I have until 2 November 2010 to decide whether to take a Remington 1100 12 gauge or a Marlin 1894SS .44 Magnum to the poll with me. Maybe I'll just take both.
After it's over I'll probably decide it wasn't worth it, but between now and when it's over that's the plan.
When justice is denied by the legal system, people make their own justice, also known as vigilantism.
