Panthers Allowed to Prowl at Voting Places From Now On

Not these panthers, silly!

I remember watching some of the election day coverage which other than giving me a feeling like I was on death row waiting for my maker was overall very good. I remember an incident with some African-American men in front of a voting area in Philly and a reporter insinuating that there was some potential voter intimidation going on. At first I thought the reporter was being a little douchey. He seemed to be making a big deal out of this, but as I began to think about it and see how the men in front of the voting place were reacting to the reporter when he attempted to interview them I began to see this as a potentially bad situation for the people who had to vote that day at that location.

Below is an excellent editorial from The Washington Times about this situation and how the Obama Administration’s Justice Department has decided to not do anything about it. It is the perfect editorial about the double standards that exist in this country and I challenge anyone to debate this:
