Two Men Indicted; Planned To Blow Up St. Louis Arch, Kill McCulloch And Jackson
[su_right_ad]The two men, who were indicted last week on federal weapons charges, planned to bomb the Gateway Arch and kill St Louis Prosecutor Robert McCulloch and Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports:
Sources close to the investigation were uncertain whether the men had the capability to carry out the plans, although the two allegedly did buy what they thought was a pipe bomb in an undercover law enforcement sting.
The men wanted to acquire two more bombs, the sources said, but could not afford to do it until one suspect’s girlfriend’s Electronic Benefit Transfer card was replenished.
An indictment, with no mention of bombs or killings, was returned in federal court here Nov. 19 and unsealed Friday upon the arrest of Brandon Orlando Baldwin and Olajuwon Ali Davis [pictured]. Their addresses and Baldwin’s age were not available; Davis is 22…
[su_thin_right_skyscraper_ad]Davis spoke at a New Black Panther rally at Greater St. Mark Family Church in Ferguson last month about the police shooting of Brown, and was identified there as the Missouri chapter’s “minister of law.”
“This is not the first Mike Brown, and it won’t be the last, if we do not unite,” Davis told the crowd then. “Divided, we lose brothers and sisters. If you do not unite, put aside your difference and unite, you can expect no changes in the future. We must change our minds, our systems and ourselves.”
The New Black Panthers has issued a statement calling the allegations regarding bombing and killing “totally unfounded” and “trumped up and baseless.”
The statement also says that the New Black Panthers do “not teach, endorse, or allow its members to commit acts of violence against anyone regardless to the circumstance, unless in imminent danger according to the rules of Self-Defense.”

Maybe they should go to war with the KKK. That way it would be like KILLING two birds with one stone…

All 12 or so of them..
Never seen more than 5 of them in the same place at the same time..:)

The right wing media is gonna love this…..
Neither of the accused are members of the NBPP..(idiots) or the Actual Black Panthers.
But that will not stop the right wing talking heads from calling them members of the “Black Panthers”..

We have seen their detachment from reality in their views on climate change and the President’s eligibility to hold office.
Ignoring reality when it comes to the Black Panthers, New or otherwise should be a piece of cake for the Limbaugh/Breitbart/FOX News triumverate.

Let’s here it for our public education system that releases people into the public domain in such an uneducated state.

There are over 2,000 white supremacist hate groups in the US now but they focus on the one black hate group like it is a thing when in reality it is just a few loosely connected stragglers.

False flag operation. Anything to preemptively keep certain citizens unarmed and
helpless against the paramilitary thugs running the St Louis/Ferguson police.

From the Journalistic Powerhouse St L Post-Dispatch
Unnamed “sources” – check
“Uncertain…the men had…capability” – check
“undercover law enforcement sting” – check
Oh, this is solid.
