Demonstrators held an open carry gun march through South Dallas on Wednesday to protest police shootings.
Organizers said the show of force served as a reminder of the right to bear arms to protect themselves from criminals and from police.
About 30 men and women with the Huey P. Newton Gun Club rallied through the streets, focusing on deadly police shootings from the Ferguson, MO shooting death of teen Michael Brown to shootings by local police.

Is the name meant to be ironic? To blow people’s minds?
That question does not seem to be all that clear.
LOL
..>> One of them, Drew X with the New Black Panther Party, warned, “If they don’t get these people under control with this police brutality and this abuse, this gonna be an international crisis.”
Who they going to call. The UN.
I support all law abiding American men of any ethnic group packing heat in open carry fashion anywhere in these United States of America.
I don’t get it...
And that is the way it should be.
South Dallas Open carry? This shows that open carry applies to evdryone.
poetic
It would seem that they may be using irony to get media attention for their cause.
Not quite sure they broke any laws, but the Huey P. Newton Gun Club marching down Malcolm X Blvd was not by accident.
“Any unarmed people are slaves, or are subject to slavery at any given moment.” - Huey Newton
“Dallas police in a black SUV provided unsolicited security for the demonstrators.”
Key word being “unsolicited.”
Spot on! An armed society is a polite society. Even Malcolm X, for all of his numerous faults, was a supporter of the Second Amendment.
And I like your use of "these United States of America" to correctly describe the Republic. It is indeed these and not the.
I can’t wait to see how these clowns will fair against the police. I bet none of them have ever even sighted in their rifles.
All we hear is words.....the NBP’s bore me!

African-Americans? Guns?
What does a good liberal say about this?
Ok, but aren’t these law abiding citizens? So why are they protesting the death of a violent criminal?
BTW, I’d still like to see Mr. Brown’s rap sheet.
They appear to be law abiding.
And if they will stand for my Second Amendment Rights, I will support their First Amendment Rights.
