This man was brilliant, which is why he was stopped.

1. There was a lot of well-planned "stopping" in the 60's
...no "accident," any of it...

3. The government fears the people and he knew. He tried to educate and engage the populace.

4. Fred Hampton and Mark Clark, + 1000
Bobby Rush, no +.

Simple, people like John Sinclair, Bob Rush, Elaine Brown with her thugs, Pratt, Ward Churchill, Cleaver, H. Rap and Foreman, Toure, Karenga, Baraka, Farrakhan, El Rukn, Rubin and Dohrn, (and any number of Delucas or Deluces from Chicago) -- watch them prosper.

On the other hand, people like Newton, Hoffman, Ted Gold, Hampton & Clark, Syl Bell, Phil Ochs, Bunchy Carter & John Huggins, Malcolm and Martin, the Jacksons and George's wife, Bobby and the Tate Polanskis, Peltier and Anna Mae Aquash, and the Chicago / Hampton coalition of Young Lords, Blackstone Rangers, Young Patriots, Brown Berets, Judy Bari, and AIM -- watch them fall.

Today there are a ton of good people living out there, from the Panthers and AIM, and even from the rogue SDS elements and '60's activist movement. They live today. They are saying the same thing today, that they said then. What they say backs Democratic thought. They are the '60's version of Rainbow Coalition Democrats. For some reason, (I don't know why), they are very modest about their lives, while they continue in the fight, like Leonard Peltier, (and Russ Means, when he gets off his high horse). They don't want any shout-outs, and would not be pleased with the internet attention.

As a white guy blue collar pro choicer Democratic Catholic from Pgh. (non-anglo Catholic), I am on their side, and it looks like they're on my side. I back the goals and tactics of the Black Panthers, the Brown Berets, the Young Lords, some dissident SDS, Red Power AIM, the Pink Panthers, the Gray Panthers, the Greens, Blue collar labor, and Womens Rights (how to color them, Pink or Red?). That is the rainbow that Hampton proposed and Jesse advocated afterward.

I'm a Blue part of the Rainbow Coalition Democrats (Rainbow Coalition, not Lenora Fulani's "Rainbow Party" and the Newman Larouche "New Alliance Party" fake Democrats). We Dems have never bombed, and are not underground. This is all nice and easy, out in the open, 'walk-down-the-hill-and-f__k-them-all'-style activity. Hampton's "serve the people" idea is the way to go, for all anti - nazi/repugs. Simple.
