Obama refuses to prosecute members of the New Black Panther Party for their plot to commit murder and bombing
Before I get to the main point of this post, I want to remind readers about two previous incidents regarding Obama and the New Black Panther Party.
First, these photographs from 2007 show Obama speaking to and marching with the New Black Panther Party.
Photos copied from the following source, and posted here under fair use:
Secondly, in May 2009, the Obama administration dismissed charges that had been filed by the Bush administration against members of the New Black Panther Party who had been videotaped intimidating voters and brandishing a police-style baton at a Philadelphia polling station during the November 2008 election. In August 2009, the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights demanded that the Justice Department explain why it dismissed the charges. In July 2010, J. Christian Adams, a former lawyer for the Justice Department, testified before the Commission on Civil Rights that the case was dropped because the Justice Department did not want to protect the civil rights of white people.
Here’s the video footage:

Now that we know Obama’s opinion of the New Black Panther Party, here is the new info, which is horrifying.
In a November 2014 undercover sting operation, the St. Louis police sold a fake bomb to members of the New Black Panther Party, who thought they were buying a real bomb. They tried to buy two additional bombs, but the EBT card that they were using did not have enough money on it. They were planning to murder Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson and St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Robert McCulloch, and bomb the Gateway Arch.
Normally, the federal government would have charged them with terrorism.
However, the Obama administration refused to charge them with terrorism, or with plotting to commit murder and bombing. The only charges filed by the federal government were for making false statements when they attempted to purchase two 0.45 caliber pistols. The federal indictment made no mention whatsoever of their plot to commit murder and bombing.
