OAKLAND, Calif. — Police said they recovered firearms linked to the slaying of an Oakland journalist during a series of early morning raids Friday targeting members of a Black Muslim splinter group that operates a chain of bakeries. Colleagues said Oakland Post editor Chauncey Bailey, 57, had been working on a story about Your Black Muslim Bakery before he was ambushed and slain Thursday morning....
Before dawn, officers raided the Muslim group's headquarters at the original bakery on San Pablo Avenue, as well as three houses in Oakland. They arrested seven people on charges including homicide, robbery and assault, including the son of the group's founder, but it was unclear if any of those charges were tied to Bailey's slaying.
"The search warrant yielded several weapons and other evidence of value including evidence linking the murder of Chauncey Bailey to members of the Your Black Muslim Bakery," said Assistant Police Chief Howard Jordan...
Your Black Muslim Bakery was founded in 1968 by the late Yusuf Bey as a haven for struggling urban families. It sells natural baked goods alongside books by Malcolm X...

I believe you. How could the Washington Post do a story on this without mentioning an organization called, “Your Black MUSLIM Bakery” ???
As soon as I saw the words “murder” and “muslim”, I saw the connection.
I see you watch muslims too.
I watch all. : )
lolol!
But cold-blooded murder is not! Go figure...
Where’s the TROP alert?
That kind of murder is justified, according to the Koran.
Muslim is not a “religion of pieces” for nothing.
