New Black Panthers Will Not Protest Glenn Beck’s ‘Restoring Honor’ Rally
Mediaite ^ | August 27, 2010 | Tommy Christopher

Posted on 08/27/2010 2:14:02 PM PDT by La Lydia

...Shabazz has confirmed to Mediaite that neither he, nor the New Black Panther Party, will be at Beck’s rally tomorrow. Shabazz declined to elaborate, but given his prior statements, it is likely that the group decided to follow the lead of other Beck critics, who have chosen to focus their energies on their own projects, rather than counter-protest Beck.

Al Sharpton’s National Action Network will hold a “Reclaim the Dream Rally and March” tomorrow that will be attended by Martin Luther King III, NAACP President Ben Jealous, and liberal MSNBC host Ed Schultz.

For those with a taste for a more direct rebuke of Beck’s rally, Celebrate the Dream might be the ticket:

On the 47th anniversary of King’s historic proclamation, far-right fearmonger Glenn Beck will hold a self-serving press event on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. He’s trying to co-opt King’s Dream, with a Nightmare message to his throng of followers.

Don’t let this buffoon diminish a day that belongs to all Americans. Join us to Celebrate the Dream and Reject the Nightmare.

The group plans to unveil a 4-story sculpture memorializing King’s speech, followed by a press conference on the national mall...

I think they’re realizing the days of intimidating people are over. These cowards fear for their own safety now, as they should. They’re troublemakers and they best stay away.

300,000 vs. maybe 2000, most likely, cowards won’t protest unless they have the numbers.

Now that IS odd! I figured they be out there SHOOTING Beck and his supporters. After all, it’s not as though any Black Panthers would be CHARGED with a crime!!!

Hmm,Schultz who earlier this month was told he would be fired if he ever again threatened to burn down the MSNBC studio.

Ed Schultz: 'I'm going to torch this [bleep]ing place'

By Chris Ariens on Aug 26, 2010 08:49 AMAn apparent incident in the middle of MSNBC's 30 Rock newsroom earlier this month is coming to light today.

The NYPost reports MSNBC's 6pmET host Ed Schultz, irate over not being included in election night promos, yelled, "I'm going to torch this [bleep]ing place."

As astonished MSNBC staff members fell silent, Schultz glared around the room and yelled, "[Bleep]ers!" Fuming Schultz was immediately dragged in for a meeting with NBC News President Steve Capus and MSNBC President Phil Griffin following his Aug. 12 meltdown.

Our source added, "Schultz was told: 'If you do that again, you are fired.' He broke down crying."

That’s a wise decision on the part of this racist organization.

The truth is the “New” Black Panther Party is a gang of punks.

Unable to panhandle enough for bus fare, I suppose.

And you can’t ride Amtrak on food stamps.

Oh my, Ed Schultz is worse than the black pampers. Martin Luther King will turn over in his grave.

Shabazz figures that some attending the Beck event will be packing heat, and not give a rat’s patootie about any DC laws.

The Lord Jesus Christ got to them...

This is a direct answer to our prayers that Glenn Beck and those attending this event would be kept safe from these evil, godless, racist enemies of America.

Maybe we should just call them the “full black pampers”.

I just don’t understand what Schultz and his crowd can say that’s bad about what Beck is doing. They will look like fools.
