WTF??  This was not anywhere in the press?   WTF is going on in this freakin country?

"Protesters that were part of an angry mob that included many ACORN supporters nearly knocked New York state Sen. James Alesi, a Republican, down on the floor and spat in the face of his chief of staff, according to reports.

The protesters were reportedly upset that two Democratic senators decided to caucus with Republicans, a move that when finalized by the state Senate would hand Republicans control of it. Majority Democrats have shut down the chamber to prevent the transfer of power.

Meanwhile, Pennsylvania state Rep. Stephen Barrar, a Republican, is circulating a petition calling on his state’s attorney general to investigate ACORN."

I don't suppose there is anyway to use RICO laws to shut them down for good?





A man can dream...

They should be shut down by RICO, but that would require action by a US Attorney.  That ain't going to happen on Eric Holder's watch.

Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act
ETA:
It would only require ACORN to have done any two of the following for it to stick:











Under the law, racketeering activity means:











I bet with a little digging it wouldn't be hard to nail them on just two of those.

ACORN members should get free rides on the SSS Express. I bet their attitudes change real fucking quick when they realize nobody is going to put up with their shit any more.

Hey man, chill out, it's all good. A cracka got his ass handed to him when he tried to disenfranchise our political action committee. We're not going to be disenfranchised any more. We sill storm the assembly houses in order for our voices to be heard. We have been oppressed and left out for far to long. It's our time now. It's our time to run things. Whitey's time has come and gone.

</Sarcasm>

Get used to it. Certain groups are prone to violence.

As I understand it, one of the two NY Senators 9the guy who beat up his girlfriend) has since gone back the the Democrats, so the NYS Senate is kind of deadlocked right now.

Which is just fine with me.

Fuck ACORN, communist pieces of shit that they are.

Judicious application of an ax handle will fix ANY ACORN member's attitude problem, I promise you.
