They like to try to do a couple of Holiday season dinners for the folks who live around there as well as the food pantry, back to school, and other programs, so this is a good time to donate

There's no reason for this. The entire story was wrong.

From what I've read, the FBI filed charges about making false statements to be able to arrest them before the grand jury announcement.

Here's a link to one of the stories: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/11/21/fbi-arrests-men-with-expl_n_6202402.html

Two with Black Panther connections charged in St. Louis in federal firearms case

ST. LOUIS • Two men have been indicted on weapons charges in federal court here for allegedly making straw purchases of two handguns at the Cabela’s sporting goods store in Hazelwood.

A police source says both men are affiliated with the New Black Panther Party and were taken into custody this morning.

According to the indictment, between Nov. 1 and 13, Baldwin, also known as Brandon Muhammad, and Olajuwon, also known as Olajuwon Ali and Brother Ali, acquired two Hi-Point .45 ACP pistols at the store, claiming that Baldwin was the buyer when, in fact, the weapons were intended for someone else.

and shipped across the border to Mexico. No outrage. 2 guys who 'say' they're NBPP try it and pandemonium erupts. Well, at least fox has their outrage of the week.

I guess it sells copies and drives up ratings

so do the police and Governor....it justifies their military grade weapons...

I'm personally familiar with this entrapment method because it's one of their favorites and have had it attempted on me at least 2 times.

I thought they were my friends. I just told them I don't do guns.

it almost looks to this okie that the cops have declared war on black people and are getting away with it. I'm pissed at the racism I'm seeing in my older years. I thought we were past this shit but hell no we're more racist today than anytime in my memory. When I say 'we' I don't mean ME or most of my fellow DU'rs

Looks like he got his helter skelter after all.

what the hell is wrong with people?
We're all brothers and sisters. Hell I've got damn near a dozen different nationalities coursing through my old asses veins and not a damn one of them dislikes the others

It's scary

This type of action has been far too typical of the police lately

False flag! False flag! False flag!

Wolf! Wolf! Wolf!

They ARE black and they probably know what a panther is, so the connection makes sense.

Get a grip.

Panthers are sneaky and pink.

Looks like the system works when allowed to...

shoddy original reporting. I should have known that the same network that would fire Dan Rather for getting the story about Bush's desertion right would fuck this up. I shall now no longer read or watch anything on CBS. Fuck those losers.

That's the media

One always tries to out do the other

Trying to purchase guns when you're not allowed is a serious crime.

The less guns on the street the better

Alleged straw purchase. They had the legal right to purchase. Just not a straw purchase. May not be true.

I'm glad it was stopped then.

The media should get the story straight but we all know how that works

They will run over one another to break a story first without checking out all the facts

I wish they WOULD check a few facts every now and again. They love drama though.

There aren't guys you want out there with guns.

that actually harmed Americans (OK City, 4/19/1995) - were white.

Then again, why is black a story? Just the fact they were buying explosives is alarming, color non issue. Black or Panthers doesn't make it any better or worse.
It's just - not good.

It was just the media saying it

It's right there in the OP.

Two white guys build a 7000 pound bomb, nobody notices.

people are just going to lie on the paperwork?

Second, if you're making false statements when buying firearms, that means you're trying to get around gun safety laws. I can't imagine a positive reason for doing that.

You can still find media outlets that still say explosives after reporting what CBS erroneously reported.

Is it just the headline that's different?

That being said, there is simply no good that can come out of folks with outstanding warrants lying on their ATF paperwork. It's a good thing they were caught. It proves that background checks are working.

And a convenient attempt to counterbalance the KKK threats.
