Reverse remembered

Yesterday I linked to a post imagining a black Tea Party. It occurs to me that there was a similar group, complete with guns and Nazi comparisons, back in the 60s: the Black Panther Party. Almost all of them were arrested and/or killed. I would not recommend doing likewise to their white imitators.

You're nicer than I am.

Before the Panthers, there were the Deacons for Defense and Justice, one of whose leaders died recently.

Bullies don't like it when people fight back. Ever notice?

I had forgotten the Deacons. Thanks for the reminder.
