JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The New Black Panther Party has released a controversial flyer with a photo of George Zimmerman's face in the crosshairs.
The flyer is promoting the "National Day of Action and Absence" on Monday, April 9. It describes the event as "a general strike and mass action by brothers and sisters in unity."
The organizers are asking people to boycott school, work, and shopping as part of the growing justice for Trayvon Martin movement.
The NBPP will be holding two news conferences today. One will be in Sanford, the other will be in Jacksonville.
The local news conference will be at 6 pm at the Art Gallery downtown.
Errrr... hmmmm... that's already their lifestyle. Not a hard stretch!
Maybe we’ll get really lucky, and they’ll boycott the entire country by leaving.
(Fingers crossed)
And not a peep from Obama or Holder.
the easy part is two out of three
I’ve known middle & upper middle class blacks who’ve visited Africa. They usually kiss the ground when they get back here, if you take my meaning.
Casper the honky target?
This will not be very effective as most of these people don’t work anyway, who’s going to notice they’re on strike?
And if they are black businesses that have decided they pretty much only do business with other blacks (and you damn right there are a lot of them like this) who are they really hurting but other blacks?
“That could be my son in the crosshairs.” - Obama
/sarc
It will be the most productive day of school and work in decades.
No tears out of Nancy Pelosi this time either.
I think people are beginning to see that the “Panthers” are just another DNC subsidiary.

Yeah, OK. The eternal victims need a reason to boycott work. LOL.
Obama’s only interested in giving civility sermons to conservatives.
I realize Mr holder refuses to prosecute his people. My question is why isn’t the Florida AG prosecuting these pukes for inciting riots and probably numerous other crimes they are committing?
And I’m sure Mr Sharpton and Jackson, (I refuse to call them reverends) are not innocent of the same crimes.
I’m sorry, you can flame me if you want, but the real racists in this country are the blacks. They are the real haters.
How about Jesse, Sharpton, Spike Lee and Obama each in one with the header “2012 RACE CARD PLAYERS: Helping Heal the Country”
What a shocker, lots and lots of black hoodlums mulling around. I’d never expect it.
NBPP are certainly providing enough evidence to charge themselves.
Trayvon Martin case exposes hypocrisy of “free speech”

Any word yet on whether or not they’ll boycott looting Air Jordans?
It’s not yet a crime. Inciting mob violence is close, but not quite there yet.
Having said that, this is insane and disgusting.
Weren’t we all supposed to stop using crosshairs after the Giffords shooting - as a sign of ‘civility’?
“Since the dawn of history the black man has owned the continent of Africa – rich beyond the dream of poet’s fancy, crunching acres of diamonds beneath his bare black feet and yet he never picked one up from the dust until a white man showed to him its glittering light.”
“His land swarmed with powerful and docile animals, yet he never dreamed a harness, cart, or sled. A hunter by necessity, he never made an axe, spear, or arrowhead worth preserving beyond the moment of its use. He lived as an ox, content to graze for an hour. In a land of stone and timber he never sawed a foot of lumber, carved a block, or built a house save of broken sticks and mud.”
“With league on league of ocean strand and miles of inland seas, for four thousand years he watched their surface ripple under the wind, heard the thunder of the surf on his beach, the howl of the storm over his head, gazed on the dim blue horizon calling him to worlds that lie beyond, and yet he never dreamed a sail.”
— Charles Darwin

Here's that flyer:
People threaten to leave but they never do. Why would anyone leave?
We reward irresponsibility and dependence. It’s like putting miracle-grow on weeds.
Guess the MSM forgot the “outrage” over Sarah Palin’s electoral bulleyes after Gabby Giffords got shot.
Does that mean I can boycott foodstamps, WIC, free cheese, section 8s, slums, free cell phones, and ehiny victims?
I’m tired of giving to people who think they deserve a free ride.
"Black Lawyers Justice" ="Black Lawyers for Justice"
Let them strike on 4/19. Production will most likely go up
No school, work or shopping?
At least challenge these people, NBP!
Somebody ought to put a bounty on THEM. Say one mil each [and you’d be overpaying]. Then when Obozo and Holder sounded off off about THEIR people, they could be told, quite publicly, to STFU!
who do I fire....
skip work, join the unemployed.

See post #18! What's the point of the hoodies, if the people can't "shop?"

And they used the photoshopped pic of Trayvon too!
This would have been seen as inciting a riot or a death threat if this were anyone else.
Cool.
It just so happens I will be going to Florida on Thursday and coming home on Tuesday. I guess I will do my shopping on Monday!
Strike? From what job? Black Panther pussycat stills lives with his grandma! LOL!
Why is anyone paying attention to these losers?
No, the Internal Revenue people will be on you like stink on sh*t in no time.
Upon graduation from law school, Shabazz passed his bar exam immediately and founded Black Lawyers for Justice (BLFJ), a legal-political organization where Black Attorneys can pool their talents and resources to counter the many attacks on the human and civil rights.
Attorney Malik Zulu Shabazz is also the National Chairman of the New Black Panther Party for Self Defense (NBPP) Shabazz joined the New Black Panther Party in 1998, and served as the National Attorney and National Spokesman before succeeding the late Dr. Khallid Abdul Muhammad as the leader of the NBPP. As the leader of the NBPP Shabazz has spread the influence of the party far and wide. The NBPP has 47 Chapters worldwide, a national newspaper and a reputation for being very successful in mobilizing young talent. The NBPP has successfully revived the Black Panther Party of the 1960’s.

Malik Zulu Shabazz
Malik Zulu Shabazz, the anti-Semitic and racist leader of the New Black Panther Party (NBPP), has sought to recast himself as a serious civil rights leader in recent years by cloaking his bigotry and intolerance in religious and civil rights principles and inserting himself in high profile, racially charged issues around the country.
Shabazz’s efforts have been supported, at times, by prominent members of the African-American community, which has provided him with a measure of status as a legitimate leader. This status is also reinforced by media accounts, which increasingly ignore his divisive record.
Shabazz’s attempts to gain acceptance and respectability are tainted, however, by his long record of racism and anti-Semitism, which he continues to embrace. That record includes promoting conspiracy theories about Jewish foreknowledge of the September 11 terrorist attacks and canards that Jews control the media and were “significantly and substantially” involved in the transatlantic slave trade.
Name: Malik Zulu Shabazz (born Paris Lewis)
Born: 1968, Los Angeles, California
Residence: Washington, DC
Organization: New Black Panther Party, Black Lawyers for Justice
Education: B.A. Howard University, J.D. Howard University School of Law (1995)
Ideology: Militant Black Nationalism, Racism, Anti-Semitism
Influences: Nation of Islam (NOI), Khallid Abdul Muhammad, Original Black Panther Party
Publication: Foreword, Synagogue of Satan (published by Truth Establishment Institute)
In order to generate a less radical public profile, Shabazz increasingly is drawing attention to his legal advocacy work by organizing and sponsoring events under the banner of Black Lawyers for Justice (BLJ), the legal advocacy group he founded in 1996.
On November 3, 2007, Shabazz organized a “National March Against Hate Crimes and Racism” under the banner of BLJ for Megan Williams, a 20-year-old African-American woman from Charleston, West Virginia, who says she was raped and tortured by a group of white Logan County residents. The event, which received national media attention, attracted a few hundred people.
Prior to the Charleston rally, Shabazz expressed a desire to focus on his career as a “serious litigator” with BLJ. “For those that have taken issue with what I have said in the past,” Shabazz said, “understand that every day is a new day. What I said yesterday you may disagree with but...everybody is evolving. I can be given a fresh look.” Shabazz also indicated, however, that he is not ready to abandon his affiliation with the most anti-Semitic and racist black militant group in the U.S. “I will always be a part of the New Black Panther Party,” Shabazz continued. “I am not going to deny my family for anybody.”
Don’t I know it. Only libs can get away with those things.
Just 14-15 months after Gabby Giffords, I dare say that's not a surveyor mark superimposed on Mr. Zimmerman either.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
It seems like many in the media who were scolding us about the need for a “new tone” of “civility” after the Giffords shooting are either silent or rooting for racial chaos.
This is one massive doubling down by the left. Massive FAIL.
I'm glad you acknowledge this group of people. And these groups exists in all racial category, i.e., those who are thankful for what they have here in America.
However, just as there are the Panthers, there were groups called the Aryan Nation, Neo Nazi, Skin Heads, and the KKK. These folks weren't exactly thankful of what they had either. Only difference, is that the system opposed them first until they no longer exist or exist in the very fringe of society. The Black Panthers, while they may still exist, or get away with things that white fringe groups would have difficulty getting away with, have much less influence than they did in he past. In the 60's, the Black Panthers were very prominent, as well as the Nation of Islam. Today, they either don't exist or are not influential in a significant way.
We need to keep in mind, most African Americans go to church on Sundays, are thankful to be Americans, and contribute to the law and order that exists here.
Despite what may seem unfair at times, i.e., as in the case of Zimmerman, African American males have suffered injustice in the US as well. And I am not talking about a century ago. In the last few decades, several hundred men from the prison system have been released via DNA evidence. Most of them, you guessed it, are African Amercan.
So, while I do not agree with the treatment Zimmerman is getting, my overall point is, it is not as one sided as most people think.
Ocassionally, when an African American male is shot by police or someone in authority, it makes front page news. However, MOST DO NOT. This one situation, happens to make front page news. There was even a situation, in a Southern State at a defense plant, where a white gunman went on a rampage (the 90's, there abouts) and deliberately targeted black coworkers. Saying they were uppity. And, because the black workers did not press it in the aftermath, it simply didn't receive as much attention as this Zimmerman case.
