For readers not familiar with the ‘New’ Black Panther party or if you are remotely so, it could be summed up as an extremist black separatist group in the US. From Wikipedia here –
“The New Black Panther Party (NBPP), whose formal name is the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, is a U.S.-based black power organization founded in Dallas, Texas in 1989. The NBPP attracted many breakaway members of the Nation of Islam when former Nation of Islam minister and spokesman Khalid Abdul Muhammad, infamous for his virulent anti-Semitism and racism, became the national chairman of the group from the late 1990s until his death in 2001. The NBPP is currently led by Malik Abdul Shabazz, who is also known for anti-Semitic propaganda, racism and extremist hate speech.”

Sound like a friendly neighborhood organization? Citizens with a lemonade stand on the corner? I’m perusing their website here and I’m picking up a violent, eclectic mix of black KKKism, Marxism and Maoism, (referred to as ethnic nationalism), topped off with Jew-hatred. They even claim that Marx based his ideology on indigenous African tribes (?!?!). Think of it as Jeremiah Wright with black swazikas, berets, and bazookas. I also found on Wikipedia here that the infinitely eminent ‘greasy-hair’ Al Sharpton appeared and spoke at a NBPP march in 1998. This particular ‘rally’, whereby several speakers called for the extermination of whites in South Africa ended with in a clash with law enforcement. Yes folks, the same Al Sharpton that you see in the MSM flapping his lips, was at this event. Remember that the next time you see him in the media, that he even has a voice in the main stream press is preposterous and shows what we are up against in the country.
Now that we have some background information on the NBPP, I turn to today’s Washington Times and an exclusive story here. Titled “Career Lawyers Overruled on Voting Case.” What ‘voting case’ is that you ask? It’s simple. On January 7, 2009 the US Justice Department filed a civil suit against the NBPP and three of it’s members relating to voter intimidation and the brandishing of a weapon,(one of the men) at at Philadelphia polling location. The suit sought an injunction against the men based on the 1965 Voting Rights Act by scaring voters with the weapon, (baton), racial slurs and military-style uniforms.
Career Lawyers, (non-politically appointed), had been working on the case for months and even had obtained an affidavit from a 1960’s civil rights activist that had witnessed the 3 men at the pol. They had obtained an injunction that prohibited the man who brandished the weapon from doing so again. They were on the verge of securing sanctions against the other 2 men and the court had already entered the default judgement phase the men last month……
Then ‘poof’ out of thin air, the lawsuit was dropped, minus an order against the man with the weapon. When asked as to why this had happened, Justice spokesman Alejondro Miyar offered, “Claims were dismissed against the other defendants based on a careful assessment of the facts and the law,” and that the department was ”committed to the vigorous prosecution of those who intimidate, threaten or coerce anyone exercising his or her right to vote.”
On the heels of these suspicious events the Washington Times did some digging. They found that Justice was seeking judgement and penalties as recently as May 5 and ended this only 10 days later. Anonymous sources at Justice told that Times that political superiors had abruptly overruled them. Speculation is that Obamanation-appointees sensed pressure and halted the investigation and upcoming judgement from the Justice Department.
Which would all be fine and dandy, if it weren’t for a pesky little video that showed up on Youtube right after the election. Shot by a college student with a camera phone, it shows. NBPP chairman Malik Zulu Shabazz, Minister King Samir Shabazz, and Jerry Jackson at the entrance to the voting location. The same 3 men under investigation as outlined above, and the same that refused to appear in court over a 5 month period. Remember, all charges except a slap on the wrist to the man with the baton were dropped, including failure to appear. Watch the video and judge for yourself. Would you or I be able to get away with this type of activity?
Being that the concrete evidence of cronyism is speculative here, I must say that this entire thing stinks to high-heaven. I can only imagine the Justice Department outcome of this case had it been Republicans/Libertarians/anyone caucasian at a polling place pulling this type of shenanigan. Or even a few tea party protester types. And imagine the amount of MSM press coverage that would have been thrown at this. And yet, not a ‘peep’ from the State-sponsored press outlets…..
Hat tip goes to Libertarian Advocate, a great new blog…..drop by and support him.
Update : Musings of a Vast Right-winger has a great post up today (June 1) that cleary shows that Jerry Jackson, one of the individuals described above was an official Democrat poll watcher. The Watcher’s Certificate was just found and Musings has it! Click here for his story.

Yeah, well, what did we expect? Justice? Racial equality from a radical?
This is exactly what I was talking about in my post. People are afraid to say anything. I don’t even think that the media is that radical, just afraid. If they aren’t, it’s because they think they can control this leviathan they have helped create. How little do they know….
Good post, keep up the fight!!
Blue – you are correct, I think that the media know that the Black Panthers is iheritantly a radical org. but they are afraid to call it out. Now as to just exactly why Justice dropped this one…..that’s the million dollar question but it sure stinks
Clearly they learned nothing from their past experience other than that they can do what they want without consequence. What a fail!
Kudos to that college student for seeing it and recording it. It’s really something to see it with your own eyes.
As I note in my posting (admittedly, more than somewhat sarcastically) There is some precedential value to the DOJ’s dropping the case. In the future, should anyone not of african extraction be sued by DOJ for voter intimidation under the 1965 Voting Rights Act, the defendant(s) could cite this case in their defense for the proposition that the EPC clause of the 14th Amendment precludes the DOJ’s application of 1965 VRA.
Libertarian Advocate – Somehow I imagine that sucsh a precedent would not apply to a non-protected ethnic group, ie. any one than white, especially white male(s). I do get your point though…..
What, this actually surprised you from this Administration. I just surprised it didn’t happen sooner.
Obama and his merry band of goons do not respect the voters,but only their own self interest and the allies who got them there.
Thug politics at its best.
Just read this story. Sadly, it’s not about justice anymore. Maybe whoever had the cases dropped had *empathy* for those guys.
And I went to the NBPP website. I would LOVE to see the reaction if I had a website that said NATIONAL WHITE POWER CONFERENCE 2009.
Conservative Scal – Thug politics exacly. Incredible that they will fight for even the the NBPP, what does that tell us?
Obamanation – good points….
No surprise given that BO is a white hating racist as I learned from his books. Imagine what will be tolerable if a racist and sexist person like Sotomayor gets on the Supreme Court. Makes me fear what is next because it hasn’t even been 6 months and the changes are so radical and so far in favor of the balkanization of the country that it’s a matter of time before something snaps.
Rebel: Thanks for the hat tip, and I’ve updated my post with a link to yours here.
Libertarian A – You are welcome,BTW I love your mission statement about yourself at the right of your site…. “nominal republican (courtesy of GWB) with very strong libertarian leanings, and an INTENSE dislike for Statist scum of all stripes, but most especially of the Democrat variety”
I sir, am in 1000% agreement, our neural networks were wired the same….
How much do you want to bet NBPP ends up with Stimulus money?
Excellent post, you took the extra steps and it shows.
Clifton – You are probably onto something, it wouldn’t surprise me if they did get stimulus dollars….thanks for the compliment, I’m putting in a lot of work here, I’m glad you can tell!
