The politics of racial pressure being applied...

"
Clear Channel Outdoor will remove 30 billboards across the city that drew complaints of racism and intimidation with their message of "Voter fraud is a felony," the company said Saturday night. The company has said it has a policy against putting anonymous political messages on its billboard and that it erred in agreeing to that contract."

There goes another bit of free speech.....

H/T TO OUR "MERLIN"

A Billboard Warning that Voter Fraud is a Felony is deemed intimidating, discriminating, and must be removed!

Earlier this month it was Reported by the Plain Dealer in Cleveland Ohio:
An election-related billboard in Cleveland's Ward 5 has caused a stir, prompting some complaints that it discriminates against minority groups and felons.
The advertisement, posted at the intersection of Community College Avenue and East 35th Street, warns that "voting fraud is a felony" in bold lettering. It also states that the penalty is punishable by up to three and a half years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
The ad also shows a gavel and sound block and lists that it was paid for by a private family foundation. The billboard is operated by Clear Channel Outdoor.

Several politicians said the ad's placement, which is near Tri-C and directly across the street from the Arbor Park 600-family development and other public housing, intimidates minority voters, students and felons who may not know their rights.
Cleveland City Councilwoman Phyllis Cleveland, who publicly complained about the billboard on Tuesday, posted a picture of the advertisement to her Twitter account. She said a resident complained to her about the sign. Cleveland wants it out of her ward.
"Some people in my ward have had issues with the criminal justice system and could feel like they're not able to vote," Cleveland said. "This could be confusing to them."
According to state law, a felon can register to vote after they have served their sentence in prison.
State Sen. Nina Turner, who drove by the billboard on Thursday, likened the advertisement to intimidation tactics used to keep blacks from voting in the times of Jim Crow. Turner said voter fraud is not a problem in the state.
"It does not exist," she said. "For them to target people in the black community is immoral."
Yesterday a follow up article on the story reported:
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Clear Channel Outdoor will remove 30 billboards across the city that drew complaints of racism and intimidation with their message of "Voter fraud is a felony," the company said Saturday night
The company has said it has a policy against putting anonymous political messages on its billboard and that it erred in agreeing to that contract.
On Saturday, Clear Channel still declined to reveal the name of its client, but said it wanted to correct the error.
"We reviewed the situation, and in light of the fact that these billboards violate our policy of not accepting anonymous political ads, we asked the client how they would prefer to work with us to bring the boards into conformance with our policy," Cullinan said in an email to The Plain Dealer. "The client thought the best solution was to take the boards down, so we are in the process of removing them."

The new billboards designed to counter the ones that will be removed will be up and visible on Monday.
Opponents had already negotiated with Clear Channel to have the company donate use of 10 billboards that will be visible Monday and carry the message
"Voting Is a Right. Not a Crime!" Cleveland City Council will pay for five more to carry the same message.
The Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under the Law has also paid for about 36 billboards that went up Thursday in Cleveland and Milwaukee in predominantly Latino and black neighborhoods that read, "Stand up and have your say -- Vote. When we vote, we are all equal."
Additional billboards with the same message will be posted next week in Columbus and Cincinnati, the group said.
Cleveland said the decision to remove the billboards is "a great example of free speech in action."  The original billboards were free speech she said, and so was the community's response.
It appears intimidation from the City Council is acceptable. Voter fraud is a felony and signs such as these should be placed around the country, not just in the Cleveland area. It's apparent that Clear Channel Outdoor succumbed to the intimidation and pressured the foundation to remove their signs.
Is voter fraud an issue? USA Today Reports: 
Underestimating our voter fraud vulnerability.
Earlier this year, James O'Keefe released a video of a 22-year-old undercover reporter who obtained Attorney General Eric Holder's ballot in Washington, D.C., and could easily have voted if he had chosen to.
Easy to commit fraud
Chaotic voter registration rolls make it too easy to commit voter fraud. A February study by the non-partisan Pew Center on the States found one in eight voter registrations were inaccurate, out-of-date or duplicates. Nearly 2.8 million people were registered in two or more states, and perhaps 1.8 million registered voters are dead.
Critics of voter ID laws also fail to note they are designed not just to stop voter impersonation but also multiple voting, non-citizen voting, people voting in the wrong precinct, out-of-state voting and voting in the names of fictitious people.
Examples of fraud are plentiful. Three non-citizens were arrested in Iowa last month for voting illegally in the 2010 general election and 2011 city election. A Democratic nominee for Congress resigned in Maryland last month after allegations that she had voted in two states at the same time. A 2004 New York Daily News study found that 46,000 people were registered to vote in both New York City and Florida, and that 400 to 1,000 had voted in both states in the same election. Florida decided the 2000 presidential election by 537 votes.
African-American support
Former congressman Artur Davis says he stopped opposing photo ID laws because of too many instances of voter fraud in his Alabama district, some of which have been prosecuted. "The most aggressive voter suppression in the African-American community ... is the wholesale manufacture of ballots," he says.
A 2012 Rasmussen poll found that 64% of Americans think voter fraud is "very" or "somewhat" serious. Blacks (64%) and those earning under $20,000 a year (71%) agreed.
Voter fraud is a huge issue and needs to be addressed. The current administration including Attorney General, Eric Holder have fought every state that has passed laws cracking down on Voter Fraud by instituting Voter Photo ID.
The Supreme Court has backed that concern. In 2008, it found states have the right to pass photo ID laws; the majority included liberal Justice John Paul Stevens. In a unanimous 2006 decision reinstating Arizona's voter ID law, the court stated: "Voter fraud drives honest citizens out of the democratic process. ... Voters who fear their legitimate votes will be outweighed by fraudulent ones will feel disenfranchised."
We can make it easy to vote and hard to cheat. We should keep trying.

The New York Times:

Supreme Court will decide on Arizona voter ID law

The Supreme Court will weigh in on an anti-fraud provision that was adopted by the state in 2004 but struck down by a federal court.

  • The Supreme Court will weigh in on the controversy over voter fraud when it considers whether Arizona can require people to show proof of citizenship before they can register to vote.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court will weigh in on the controversy over voter fraud and decide early next year whether Arizona can require residents to show proof of their citizenship before they register to vote.
The justices agreed to hear Arizona's appeal of an anti-fraud provision that was adopted as a ballot initiative in 2004, but was struck down by the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Unfortunately, they won't hear the case until next year and that won't be an answer for this election.... But we must keep trying.

DANE COUNTY, WISCONSIN SHERIFF SAYS HE WON'T STOP FELON VOTERS -



This, from the state that stole an election that put Al Franken into the Senate and who then provided the 60th (deciding) vote to pass Obamacare.....this guy is emulating Obama....using his position to choose which laws to enforce and which not to....so as to enhance a political advantage - and it's all out in the shameless open. If we lose the rule of law, which is happening before our eyes, we lose everything.

Dane Co. Sheriff Says He Won’t Stop Felon Voters

By: Brian Sikma
 
In a battleground state where voter fraud has been an issue in previous presidential elections, one leading county sheriff is saying his office won’t stop ineligible felon voters from casting a ballot. An internal memo from the Dane County Sheriff’s Office instructed deputies and other staff assigned to the county jail to facilitate the absentee ballot requests of inmates. Sent from Lt. Mark Twombly, the memo specifically instructed law enforcement officials to not check on the felony status of inmates and to help everyone vote regardless of their criminal record. In Wisconsin an individual serving jail time for a felony or under parole or supervision for a felony may not cast a ballot.
 
Checking on whether or not an inmate is a felon would require a quick and simple check of the county law enforcement’s computer system. “It is going to be up to their polling location to research whether they are allowed to vote based on their criminal record, not the DCSO [Dane County Sheriff's Office],” Twombly wrote in a memo distributed to staff.
The decision by the sheriff’s office to ignore felon status for inmate voters means that law enforcement officials will not be working to prevent further legal violations on the part of those in their custody.
 
During an in-studio radio interview with a Madison talk show host on Monday, Sheriff Dave Mahoney attacked the whistleblower deputy and the conservative Milwaukee talk show host who blogged about an e-mail the deputy sent him. Mahoney called the whistleblower and talk show host “unethical” and said he couldn’t believe one of his officers would release the internal memo. The sheriff suggested that the deputy acted in an unprofessional fashion.
Mahoney vigorously denied that his office is facilitating possible voter fraud. “Absolutely not, we are not,” he told the radio show host. But by not checking an inmate’s potential felony status, Mahoney is shifting his own responsibility to enforce the law on to municipal clerks. In the aftermath of Wisconsin’s hyper-intense political season of the past 18 months, many local clerks’ offices are worn down.
 
When Mahoney does not enforce the law in his own jail it adds a burden to the workloads of strained municipal clerks.
 
An official with the Madison City Clerk’s office told Media Trackers that it was possible for the office to check a list of those who request absentee ballots against the State Voter Registration Service. The SVRS is run by the Government Accountability Board, which attempts to cross-reference the database with Department of Corrections’ records.
 
The GAB came under scrutiny lately after it was found that the board, which serves as the top election oversight agency in the state, missed an important federal deadline for mailing absentee ballots to oversees voters, including military personnel from Wisconsin.
According to the Madison Clerk’s office, if a voter is listed as inactive at a particular address the absentee ballot will not be mailed. Newly registered voters who ask for absentee ballots immediately after registering are not immediately a part of the voter database system the clerk’s office said.
 
Waukesha County Clerk Kathy Nickolaus told Media Trackers that if a crosscheck of absentee requests against the state voter file turns up an inactive registration, clerks in her area would not send an absentee ballot. This assumes that the state database is always up to date.
In defending his decision to let potential voter fraud slip through, Mahoney said his present policy does not differ from that of previous sheriffs in Dane County. Mahoney has suffered repeated criticism from conservatives for his ongoing unwillingness to enforce the law on liberal protesters who harass and intimidate political opponents and staff in and around the state capitol in downtown Madison.
 
Dane County is the second most populous county in the state and has the highest proportional percentage of Democratic voters.
 
Lt. Twombly, the author of the memo prohibiting Sheriff’s Office officials from enforcing state election law, signed a petition to recall Governor Scott Walker from office.
The Dane County Sheriff may insist that his office does not have a role in enforcing election law, but local law enforcement officials around the state have been involved in enforcement efforts before. Earlier this year the Racine County Sheriff’s Department was called upon to investigate allegations of suspect election activities related to the June recall election. During the 2004 presidential campaign the Milwaukee Police Department played an active role in enforcing election laws.

Spank the kids and you're a felon...it happened on Frontier Airlnes

From the following blog:

http://pft2009.blogspot.com/


Homeland Insecurity Inconsistencies

In-flight confrontations can lead to terrorism charges...

Highlights:

Tamera Jo Freeman was on a Frontier Airlines flight to Denver in 2007 when her two children began to quarrel over the window shade and then spilled a Bloody Mary into her lap. She spanked each of them on the thigh with three swats.A flight attendant confronted Freeman, who responded by hurling a few profanities and throwing what remained of a can of tomato juice on the floor. The incident aboard the Frontier flight ultimately led to Freeman's arrest and conviction for a federal felony defined as an act of terrorism under the Patriot Act, the controversial federal law enacted after the 2001 attacks in New York and Washington.

"I had no idea I was breaking the law," said Freeman, 40, who spent three months in jail before pleading guilty. The costs of a conviction can be enormous. In Tamera Freeman's case, it cost her custody of her children.

The confrontation on the Frontier Airlines flight to Denver was particularly harsh, recalled Amy Fleming, the flight attendant who told Freeman to stop spanking her children. In a recent interview, Fleming called Freeman the most unruly passenger she had seen in 11 years on the job."

Absolutely she deserved a felony conviction," she said.

But at least one passenger, John Carlson, a defense attorney who was seated near Freeman, said there was no threat. "There was a nasty, loud exchange," Carlson said. Then Freeman "capitulated and offered no resistance. My sympathy shifted to her."

Last summer, a Boston man who took off his clothes and attempted to open an emergency exit during a flight to Los Angeles was not charged with a crime, even though the plane was forced to make an unscheduled landing in Oklahoma City.
