Just wondering. For those who don't like my race questions, why do they bother you so much? And no, I am not in the Black Panthers. They aren't even around anymore, and havent been since the 70s, and I was born then. So Is it the same?

Can you give me some information on how the Black Panthers killed white people? I never heard of any black panthers killing people, like the KKK has the history of.

Why do I have to be fishing for hatred? I just want to know, because I don't know anything about the black panthers at all. If there was no hatred, there would be nothing to fish for.

actually the black panthers are now called the new black panthers so yes they are still around. lewis farrakan is part of that too...and to answer your question yes, the black panthers are just as racist as the kkk....read their history and views on races and you will know.

The Black Panthers where more political activist then the KKK, which are mainly religious hillbilly fools. Reverse racism is a big problem though and I'm sure some black panthers would fit into that group as well.

From the UK side of the pond, I well remember the two athletes at the Olympics giving the black glove fist at the medal presentation. Quite honestly, we believed they were right. The Civil Rights campaign in America was comparable with Apartheid in South Africa and none of my generation could agree with either. What went on then in the US was despicable and although there was racism in the UK, I am not denying that, it was minuscule with that of the American South.
(Incidentally, there would have been a hell of a punch-up if someone who was entitled to join the Black Panthers had tried to join the KKK in those days. Nowadays, the KKK is so short of members, it would be probably happy to enroll anyone no matter what the colour of the skin).......

You Betcha. They both espoused hatred of other races. They both were violent, extreme organizations. And I beleive they were both investigated by the FBI. The only redeeming thing the Panthers did was they were heavily into community action back then and had some neighborhood help things going on. But the violent radicals ruined it all.

NO. The Black Panthers were more of a political group fighting for the rights of African-Americans.
The kkk is just plain racist. They plot against Jewish people and non-whites .

the Black Panthers started out as racist, but changed their views so I wouldn't say they are anything like the KKK

Well in case you didn't know they are the exact opposite. The KKK hates blacks and the Black Panthers hates whites. I just though that I would fill you in.

There is no difference between the two. They both are motivated by racial prejudice. They both operate on evil and fear. they both commit sin. Both organizations are under God's judgment.
