The New Black Panther Party and the Zimmerman Bounty

[Demigod]

The original Black Panthers were an openly Communist group. The New Black Panthers incorporate more elements of black nationalism and separatism. It seems to me that they feel black people have historically gotten a bad deal. I think that black people as a whole have never had true liberty in this country. Many went directly from slavery to the second class citizenship outlined in the fourteenth amendment.

How did the blacks got a bad deal?

Ultra, Mecha, Massive, Fail.

I don't think I have ever seen so much failure in one sentence.

Unless you're doing something wrong, you have no reason to fear the police state.

no the government is currently trying to kill you. the black panther party wants a murderer to be arrested.

Where was the Black Panther party when this little girl was murdered by the cops?

Capture? No the bounty was not for capture, the poster I saw on the news this morning said "Dead or Alive". On CNN of course they showed the poster but it was mysteriously missing the dead or alive portion.

Not the bounty poster I saw this morning on the news. It read "Dead or Alive".

FWIW...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The New Black Panther Party is making their concerns over the Trayvon Martin case known. At 9:00 Monday morning, the group will be holding a news conference at the State Attorney's Office in Jacksonville.


Members say they're upset over the appointment of Angela Corey to the case, and that George Zimmerman is still a free man.


The organization put out flyers saying "George Zimmerman" is wanted "dead or alive." Southern Regional Minister Mikhail Muhammad doesn't think the rhetoric is violent.


"We are God-loving people. We try to get along with everybody," he said.


Specifically, a $10,000 dollar reward is being offered for the capture of Zimmerman, who admitted he shot and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.


"We came together, different black leaders and organizations, to craft this language so that george zimmerman would understand that he will have no peace," Muhammed said.

Do you have any evidence they were? A quick google didn't yield anything for me...

As I said in another thread on this: Stay classy, BP.

Zimmerman should have shot the kid with his Hispanic heritage in mind, then we would not even be discussing this.

Yes, he should have shot him with a Mariachi Band playing in the background. LOL

That's true, but it seems as if the media is manipulating the story to make people think that Zimmerman is a white guy. They certainly have made every effort to point out that Zimmerman's father is white. When do the media ever bother to mention the ethnicity of an accused shooter's parent?

Beats the hell out of me. Racially, it seems Zimmerman is white. Culturally, he may be hispanic. Black people in America or African Americans tend to be self-classified racially but Latinos and Hispanics tend to use the ethnic or cultural self-identification (Hispanic or Latino or something more specific like Puerto Rican):

It's why more than 40% of Hispanics, when asked on the Census form in 2000 to register white or black as their race, wrote in "Other" — and they represented 95% of all the 15.3 million people in the U.S. who did so.

I doubt anybody can get this right.

I'm predicting Zimmerman walks and the NBPP is helping that happen with rank stupidity on par with Zimmerman's:

Zimmerman told them he lost sight of Trayvon and was walking back to his SUV when Trayvon approached him from the left rear, and they exchanged words.

Trayvon asked Zimmerman if he had a problem. Zimmerman said no and reached for his cell phone, he told police.

Trayvon then said, "Well, you do now" or something similar and punched Zimmerman in the nose.

Zimmerman fell to the ground and Trayvon got on top of him and began slamming his head into the sidewalk, he told police.

Zimmerman began yelling for help.

Several witnesses heard those cries, and there's been a dispute about from whom they came: Zimmerman or Trayvon.

Lawyers for Trayvon's family say it was Trayvon, but police say their evidence indicates it was Zimmerman.

One witnesses, who has since talked to local television news reporters, told police he saw Zimmerman on the ground with Trayvon on top, pounding him and was unequivocal that it was Zimmerman who was crying for help.

Zimmerman then shot Trayvon once in the chest from very close range, according to authorities.

When police arrived less than two minutes later, Zimmerman was bleeding from the nose, had a swollen lip and had bloody lacerations to the back of his head.

Paramedics gave him first aide but he said no to going to the hospital. He got medical care the next day.

Stupidity is not a crime. Racism is not a crime. Stupidity combined with racism is still not a crime. Unless there are contradictory witness statements or self-incrimination on the part of Zimmerman, I'm guessing he walks. Lawyers will keep him out of prison or in protective custody if charged. He should have gone to the hospital from the scene so as to better document his injuries. Of course, he should have been spending his evenings minding his own damn business.

Soooooooooooooooooo back on topic. It still baffles me how the NBPP has a $10,000 bounty on this man's head, and no one seems to care.



America-Fuck Yeah.

 

[oyarde]

unless you're a racist, you have no reason to fear the black panther party.

I am not racist , not do I fear them , had my fill of dumbasses and commies though , in this lifetime .

 

[Kluge]

what makes you think they wasn't involved in that case?

I looked it up.

You're right. There is a complete abandonment of the rule of law and people seem more concerned about "social justice."

STOP!!

Can we take a deep breath for a moment??


Some here are blaming the victim, and others are trying the accused on a message board. Both of these actions seems unfair to me.


None of us were there on the night this tragedy happened. All we have are emotionally charged and manipulative msm* accounts of this incident (*people that Ron Paul supporters normally do not trust to tell us the truth).

I've said this before: based on what we've been told it sure seems like the cops dropped the ball for not arresting Zimmerman. But I don't know if what we know is all there is to know. It sure would be nice to wait for all of the facts before we convict Trayvor Martin or George Zimmerman.

Martin is not here to give his account; may he rest in peace. But in a way, Zimmerman's life is basically over too, no matter what happens next. This is a situation where there is no winner, folks.
