“The Hood”: Is that the place where black folks (even kids) are getting slaughter to the point where Baghdad sounds like a nice, quiet vacation place? Where even the Mayor had to a maya-culpa after this weekend?
Yes, nice head-fake. Let’s have you focus on groups of dead white guys carved in a rock while ducking gunfire from your own kind.
From my experience, if the 3%-ers knew along with DeKalb’s finest had a heads up on this, we can assume there were at least 2 FBI, 1 ATF, and probably 3 CI’s (working to get a reduced sentence on something) among this cadre. The rest just needed walking around money.
Honestly, as a black man, if I wanted to recruit folks into my Black Panther or Black Militia, I would have had my crew muster on MLK Blvd (or maybe at the torched Wendy’s) pledging not to allow more black folks to become bullet magnets.
... which is why I believe the whole thing was ‘theater’.
P.S. to the 3%: My guess is a) those black dudes knew you were there and b) if you have walked up and got in their face, they would not have fired a shot. Someone just wanted a photo op.
just my $0.02.

I would bet that 90% or more of them had zero ammunition, empty mags.
Maybe 99%.
This was for show, a national recruitment pitch, and one negligent discharge into another NFAC or bystander would have ruined the entire program.
Fitzgerald (Jay’s real last name) is not stupid. It was theater, so empty rifles were enough.
Error above.
Grand Master Jay, the NFAC’s leader, is
John Fitzgerald Johnson.
