Raw Story
A Texas gun club named after one of the founders of the Black Panthers Party marched in Dallas on Wednesday to protest against police brutality, KTXA-TV reported. Around two dozen members of the Huey P. Newton Gun Club carried rifles and red, black and green flags as they marched through the city’s south side, sometimes chanting in support of Michael Brown, the 18-year-old man killed by a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, on Aug. 9.I understand them but I fear what it could bring, those crooked cops are not going to permit that and I think it will lots of dead innocent people. I also think that the right wing law enforcers are not above plants to discredit and create fear among others like they've done in other cases like Occupy and I suspect Ferguson, remember the claims of officers being fired on and molotov cocktails being thrown at cops and that these people were out of state or town agitators.
“If they don’t get these killer cops and corrupt cops under control,” a member identifying himself as Commander Drew X was quoted as saying. “What happened in Ferguson is going to be nationwide.”
“If the protests hadn’t happened, you wouldn’t have the attorney general, and all these people, the FBI and the federal people looking at the situation,” said Brazier, a member of the New Black Panther Party. “They normally would have ignored it.”
Again, dead-on correct. Protests MADE the nation look.
it's why wingnuts want the media to stop focusing on it. Like children who want to break the rules mom put on them and whine when she observes them.
I posted this because these gentlemen say exactly what I think in the excerpted sections, which are obviously prompted by the outrageous police overreach in Ferguson.
But the Gun Club is dead-on correct: we have to take the stand NOW as this shit is already latent nationwide and showing exactly zero signs of abating anytime soon. It is still ratcheting up, cops are still being funneled giant military vehicles and guns, guns, guns. And stylish military apparel that makes them feel frisky.
“If the protests hadn’t happened, you wouldn’t have the attorney general, and all these people, the FBI and the federal people looking at the situation,” said Brazier, a member of the New Black Panther Party. “They normally would have ignored it.”very true it just goes to show what can happen if you just make some noise, I hope this will be a template for future protest against injustice, it works, the more corrupt the more push back and there is where you begin to be notice around the world because they can't help but be as arrogant as usual and bring down the wrath of the people on them by their hand.
