A New Black Panther Party leader with the words kill whitey tattooed on his face has been busted for allegedly carrying a loaded and unlicensed gun, according to the New York Post.
Maruse Heath, also known as King Salim Shabazz, the head of the New Black Panther Party Philadelphia chapter, was arrested in New York City Thursday night after police spotted him allegedly wearing a large ballistic vest. Officers then allegedly found the .25-caliber gun.
Heath, 41, had been leaving a New Black Panther Party planning meeting, the Post reported. A source told the newspaper his first phone call in custody was to New Black Panther Party national leader Malik Zulu Shabazz.
Heath was the New Black Panther Party member wearing a paramilitary uniform and carrying a baton in the infamous 2008 election video shot in front of a Philadelphia polling place.
During Heaths arraignment Friday, his attorney argued that police jumped him without justification as he was leaving the meeting.
It is no crime to belong to the Black Panther Party, attorney Brad Foster said, according to the newspaper. He added that the New Black Panthers do charity work within the local community, outreach to the homeless, and works with at-risk youth who are at risk of becoming criminals.
But the prosecutor said Heath was stopped because he was wearing a large, obvious ballistic vest.
He was stopped, and a loaded handgun was taken from his pocket, prosecutor Christopher Ryan said.
Heath faces a minimum three-and-a-half-year sentence if convicted of possessing the gun. Hes due back in court June 26 to find out if hell face charges of gun possession and illegally wearing body armor, the Post reported. He is being held in lieu of $75,000 bail.

No worries, Holder will have him out of the joint in a few days.
“A New Black Panther Party leader with the words kill whitey tattooed on his face” has told the press that he is being miss characterized, his tattoo simply refers to his desire to perform Holder approved late term abortions!
Forrest Gump: I’m sorry I had to fight in the middle of your Black Panther party.
I like the tattoo idea, though. Good place to put the crosshairs.
Actually I am on Heath’s side on this one. He has a 2Amd right just as the rest of us have .2Amd doesn’t make exceptions about being a gangster or a black panther of any sort. So long as he does not use the .25 to do unrighteous things, like shoot people who are not attacking him, he is on Constitutional ground.
Right, Eric Holder was a Black Panther, armed, and involved in criminal activity back at Columbia, and now he’s AG.
Maybe, but my money is on a felony conviction lurking in his past.
Didn’t he have diplomatic immunity or something .... he is from Philadelphia!
“He has a 2Amd right just as the rest of us have .”
Go get a “KILL WHITEY” tat on your noggin and see how quick you’re found guilty of a hate crime.

Make that “KILL BLACKEY”
I tend to agree. As loathsome as Mr. Kill Whitey may be, I'd prefer if NYC honored 2nd Amendment rights.
Does he have a cooking show on the Food Network?
25 caliber is a gun?
I'll bet it was pink.
It's not HIM the regime is worried about; it's you and me.
Anyone who should be deprived of firearms should not be running around loose. If he's served his time, he's entitled to self-defense, much as I dislike the thought.
