This is real. And utterly sick. THIS is what you're supporting, conservatives. Your side is the side of nigger-baiting and lynch mobs.

That can't be right. It can't be.

Where the hell is this coming from? What the hell IS it? Is this just some random attack on conservatives because I'm yet to see the signifigance.

It seems that the majority of black people in the USA would vote against Bush. And these instructions are being handed the the Black Voters League. See it now?

Ah, ok. Does someone have an actual source explaining this though instead of just this picture?

It was found in a black neighborhood in Detroit, scanned and sent to DailyKos, a liberal blog.

Soo... this couldn't in anyway be a photoshopped thing that was created solely to spark anger amongst blacks?

I... am honestly stunned.

Fucking hell. Is this a joke?

There's a possibility, but I kinda doubt it. The way it's scanned looks like a real photocopy, not a photoshop job.

While that's all evil and shit, can we shy away from the sweeping generalizations of conservatives? Not all conservatives support stuff like that, not all conservatives are Republicans, and not all Republicans support the Republican wermacht.

is there any indication of where it was actually found in the neighborhood itself? if it was just some flyer found on a street corner i'd be skeptical to say the least.

Why yes. I hate blatant attempts to suppress voter turnout to illegally affect the election and effect the re-election of a man who doesn't deserve to be President.

So you take sweeping generalizations of an entire class of people and apply a blanket condemnation of all of them? That would be prejudice...

What do you really stand for, Ice? 'Cause you sound exactly like the kind of people you call your enemy.

So in affect here we have you citing something here that is probably isolated to a very specific instance attempting to generalize an entire party or view and candidate. That's not very scientific nor logical.

Does anyone actually believe that the Republicans put this out?
It looks like the result of some half-literate high school student's fooling around with Broderbund's old Print Shop program.

All of the Republicans I know can correctly spell the word 'guilty'.

And for those who don't know, there is one true statement in that flyer.
The time for registering to vote has indeed passed. If you're not registered by now, it's too late.

I don't have a whole lot of heart for people who have decided to classify me as an enemy to the American Way of Life, dumbass. If you don't like that, tough shit, start treating your fellow citizens like fellow citizens and not like Enemies of the State. The utter conservative silence in condemning shit journalism (accompanied by vociferous praise from certain circles on books like Treason (Ann Coulter) and Deliver Us From Evil: Defeating Terrorism, Despotism and Liberalism (Sean Hannity)) is appalling and very very chilling. If you want your side to start looking nicer, do your fucking laundry.

Well... it depends on the state. Minnesota for example, if you can scrounge up someone who says you live in the precint, you'll be allowed to vote there.

Pay fucking attention yourself. There is not one false statement in what I pointed out. You took an entire class of people and made a blanket condemnation of them-- that is exactly what you accuse Conservatives of doing.

If that sort of behavior is wrong and unacceptable, then why do you do it yourself? Are you trying to be a goddamn hypocrite?

And if you knew anything about my history on this board, you'd know that I am more or less Conservative but in many ways very Liberal, and I have always seen liberals as fellow citizens who have a right to their opinions. I also think George Bush is a putz and while I think Kerry is no better, I would not cry overmuch if he wins the election.

If your brand of liberalism is so goddamn perfect your shit don't stink, then quit going to the lowest common denominator and make a fucking example of yourself. Right now, with your "all Conservatives are..." post, you are exactly the same as the motherfucker who put out that pamphlet.

True, dat.

I was thinking of my own state's laws.
