My suspicion is that this is a fraud( the video). Why? One because the only thing that suggests this is really ACORN is the poster on the wall. Also if that was done with hidden video, the quality is awful good. If not I suppose these "Acorn" employees just let themselves be videotaped plotting illegal activity. Another thind is this is being pushed by only rightwing websites. Also are the police investigating. It would be pretty easy to produce a fake "investigative news report". If it is true shame on Acorn.

I see you fall back to Liberal Lesson #2 - Better known as the PRAVDA Rule.
If it doesn't appear in the state allied media it must be false.
You do Hugo Chávez proud!!!!

So I'm supposed to believe websites and groups that push obvious bs like the "birther nonsense". Anyone can put anything on the web. Theres tons of people who, just using a video camera and a few actors create fictional films and post them on the internet. The problem with the rightwing is they have decided it's a useful tactic to lie, even about stuff that is obviously false. Like FEMA death camps, or Obama's birth certificate. Or even ACORN and it's activities. Their gullible followers eat this shit up like it was manta from heaven. Hell even the National Enquirer has true stories in it, but you don't know whether to believe them because their is so much bs. So I'm supposed to believe something they post on these sites? Now as you see, Fang took the time to research it and found actual newspaper articles, which shows that it is true. Shame on ACORN for hiring these idiots, and I won't say shame on the workers because people that dumb are beyond help.

So far, I've only seen this on Fox News and right-wing websites; none of the reputable new sources have taken it up.

I've put in a request to Factcheck.org to find out about it. Have to wait and see if they deal with it.

"Criminal facilitation occurs whenever a person encourages, enables, entices, or explains to another how to commit crimes with the real purpose of helping that person to commit those crimes" — a violation the ACORN employee "committed in full,"

The worker could also face charges for criminal conspiracy, though each charge would require a heavier burden to prove: a so-called "act of furtherance" — a concrete move that makes the conspiracy active.

Eight crimes the ACORN worker could potentially have committed that could bring a total sentence of 24 years in prison, including criminal facilitation and conspiracy to:

• (a) commit prostitution

• (b) operate a prostitution ring

• (c) file false documents with taxing and other government authorities

• (d) file false documents with a bank [also known as bank fraud]

• (e) violate numerous immigration laws

• (f) transport children into the U.S. for immoral purposes

• (g) transport women into the U.S. for immoral purposes [also known as violating the Mann Act]

• (h) impair the welfare of minors.

Well you know what - if this was a lie - the mainstream media -- with their billion of dollars who loves ACORN (Dan Rather, Tom Brokav, George Soros, would throw their billions into it to say it was a fake and prove it was) and would be all over it. But you know what, if it IS a fake - let's just wait and see.

Here's an idea - if it was a fake - the left wing would be all over it.

Those two are being used as scape goats for a corrupt system.

If you believe that it is the actions of two rogue ACORN employees then the Easter Bunny must be real too.

I can't wait until the two employees sue ACORN. Or will they just be working at one of it's other facilities next month.

I noticed that I wasn't supposed to re-distribute the Sun's material, so I'm changing this to a link:

At http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/sns-ap-us-acorn-hidden-camera,0,59... you can read about how ACORN fired the two stupid employees who were trying to help the fake pimp.

And at http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/sns-ap-us-voter-fraud,0,4029982.story you can read about how ACORN turned in 11 of their own people for creating fake voter registrations in Florida.

All of the theories regarding a single incident are false. The word pandemic is now applicable.
New video of a second Acorn branch giving the same advise has surfaced. This now is a pattern of total disregard for the law. This is the second time that ACORN has attempted to help the sadistic practice of child sex slavery.

Corrupt ACORN practices are now shown to be systemic. The cancer of ACORN must be excised immediately.


Second Video Shows ACORN Officials Helping 'Pimp,' 'Prostitute' in...

Now is the appropriate time to call your representatives.
