Penn Student Mixes With Black Panthers In Voting Snafu

The Philadelphia Daily News posted a video earlier this afternoon, a tipster informs us, and we think it belongs right up there with the canon of ne'er-do-well former Spin blogger Stephen Morse.

The situation: some guys who seemed to be Black Panthers were standing outside a polling location looking menacing (and this is neither here nor there, but of course Fox News is having a field day with this story), so an election volunteer who said he was affiliated with Penn approached them.  He pointed out that the fact that they were holding nightsticks might be construed as intimidating.  The panthers countered that the Penn guy was wielding a camera-phone.  Because Penn students have the bomb logic skills, our hero responded: "I have a camera-phone, which is not a weapon."  Check out the video:
