Yes, except that you are conflating two completely different things. And the act of that conflation carries with it the false equivalence that they are anywhere near the same level. Voter intimidation and voter suppression are not the same thing. And I believe the New Black Panther Party voter intimidation you are referring to amounts to like 2 guys standing on the corner somewhere. Voter suppression is state-sponsored voter purging.

Your effort to compare the two while keeping yourself neutral by mentioning Trump voters' intent at evening things up is just stupid. Own your bullshit argument. Don't act like the voting public is getting its revenge for Eric Holder's selective prosecution.
