Texas attorney general warns UN poll watchers to keep their distance
The Daily Caller ^ | October 24, 2012 | Jessica Stanton

Texas Attorney General Greg Abbot sent a letter Tuesdsay warning United Nations-affiliated poll watchers that they do not have jurisdiction in the state and will, therefore, be criminally prosecuted if they attempt to interfere at Texas polling locations on Nov. 6.

The letter, addressed to Ambassador Daan Everts, came in response to the announcement that the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe will deploy scores of election monitors to the U.S. in an effort to monitor conservative groups for voter suppression or intimidation.

This was my red line ... once I saw blue helmets on our soil acting in an authoritative capacity I would know that we were at war and would act accordingly.

That goes for any LEO (traitor in my eyes) protecting / cooperating with the blue helmets

I hope something happens so that these UN idiots and their liberal American enablers can be on national TV and be exposed for what they are trying to do.

Anyone know if these people will be in Georgia?

I tried searching, but only references on the web involve the republic of Georgia.

The Texas AG today said they must obey Texas voting laws. This means that if they are not voting they cannot legally be within 100 feet of a polling place. Good luck laddies. We don’t care much what others think. Come and get it.

They should be declared enemy invaders and shot on sight.

That would end absentee voting and early voting

Thanks. Four combat deployments and several others aside would mean I would've missed three POTUS elections; not counting the midterms. I was "lucky" enough to have been gone for every one of the last three Presidential elections.

I say we extend the Texas Castle Doctrine.

this is a state version of a home invasion.

Those UN Blue Helmets make great planters once the requisite 7.62x51mm "drain holes" are installed.

“They should be declared enemy invaders and shot on sight.”

Umm . . . how about we just call the cops and have them arrested if they break our laws. These goobers are not going to be armed if they enter a polling place to pretend they are “poll watchers.” I will treat them like everyone else — if you are not voting, assisting a voter, an election worker, a registered poll watcher, or normally employed in at a location used as a polling place, and doing your normal job you cannot get within one hundred feet of the polling place. I will ask anyone violating that law to leave. If they do not leave, I will call the local police and let the law deal with them. And the law does. Trust me. No need to waste ammo on them.

I wonder how many of the poll watchers will try to defect.

We will be footing the bill for their existance for the rest of their lives- food, shelter, medical, education, Obama phones, etc.,...

Okay; sounds like a better/less messy plan.

I’m in CO. Up here I think we should just invite them on a nice hike in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Visit and old western ghost town. Check out an historic abandoned mine. You know, treat them like speshul guests.
