[Dialogue] Harry Wainwright has forwarded an article to you from CommonDreams.org: Death Threat, Vandalism Hit ACORN After Accusations

[Adelbert Batica]

Such shenanigans are not supposed to happen in America, no matter if they're SOP in many parts of the globe.  God forbid if the harassment and intimidation escalate to a point where I'll have to bring a 2X4 to the polling place to protect myself and my vote.  I remember the bad old days of yore...in ye olde country.

month.Attorneys

notifying the FBI and the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division of
the incidents, said Brian Kettenring, a Florida-based spokesman for the
