I’d give a nickel to know the background and motives for those two. I’d love to have access to their browser and email history.

These guys are Black Panthers.

How convenient to keep that detail out.

The men, who live in the St. Louis area, are allegedly members of the new Black Panthers. They were arrested as part of an FBI undercover operation near Ferguson and intended to use the explosives in pipe bombs, the source confirmed.

The suspects, whose names were not released, were arraigned in federal court on Friday.

They so wanted these people to be members of the Tea Party.

Do’h!

It was an FBI “sting” operation. In other words, the FBI created a crime and then arrested its participants.

Its not hard for someone with moderate intelligence to avoid getting caught up in a sting.
