The so-called “fact checkers” at Snopes have reached out to Breitbart News in an openly partisan attempt to wash away the story of armed members of the New Black Panther Party campaigning for the Democrat gubernatorial candidate in Georgia, Stacey Abrams. Over the weekend, Breitbart News–among other media outlets–published explosive photographs of armed Black Panthers campaigning for Abrams, holding up her campaign sign while also holding up various guns. In the story, Breitbart News included a quote from the campaign of her GOP opponent, Brian Kemp, calling on her to denounce the radicals campaigning for her.
The story went viral. Many other national outlets and outlets across Georgia, including a local CBS News affiliate, picked it up and carried the damning images of Abrams’ radical supporters. Since then, President Donald Trump held a rally in Macon, Georgia, for Kemp and the latest polls in the race show Kemp leading Abrams by as many as 12 points.
On Monday, a self-identified “reporter” for Snopes, Bethania Palma, reached out to Breitbart News with a series of questions about the Black Panther report. None of the questions implies anything was inaccurate about the report Facebook relies on Snopes as an official “fact checker” to detect fake news and misinformation on the platform, along with a small group of other primarily left-wing organizations including Politifact.

I’m still waiting for Snopes to debunk the “hands up don’t shoot” narrative.
Good on ya’ for pointing that out... It’s also possible that the whole thing is an airsoft rig.
I don’t like to pretend I know what God is going to decide on any given individual.
but I would like to be there when he meets up with the maker.

Those guys look like 4 actors from a B Movie.
Ha!
I just posted on another thread that they probably aren’t real black panthers
They’re probably fake like everything else the rats promote/use.
Always a possibility, AirSoft has gotten really good at replicating look, weight, and feel of real firearms.
Yup, that is a +$2K rig.
