Let's have a new rule: if you don't acknowledge the United States of America, as Bundy says, then you don't get to hide behind our Bill of Rights.
Exactly the same. My opinions are not influenced by race. The belief that racism is the sole purview of the right is a lie.
Other than Ross Perot this is the only political contribution I have ever made.

OK, got it.
You'd support armed Black Panthers protecting a black rancher who was surrounded by federal agents carrying out a lawful court order. Race doesn't factor into your support then, it's the fact that they are defying the government and that's what you support.

Interesting FACTS about the Black Panthers :
In the late 1960s party members became involved in a series of violent confrontations with the police (resulting in deaths on both sides) and in a series of court cases, some resulting from direct shoot-outs with the police and some from independent charges.
Among the most notable of the trials was that of Huey Newton for killing a policeman in 1967, which resulted in three mistrials, the last in 1971. Bobby Seale, one of the "Chicago Eight" convicted of conspiracy to violently disrupt the Democratic National Convention of 1968 (later overturned), was a codefendant in a Connecticut case charging murder of an alleged informer on the party. He was acquitted in 1971. A third major trial was of 13 Panthers in New York City accused of conspiring to bomb public places. They were also acquitted in 1971. The results of these trials were taken by many observers as confirmation of their suspicions that the Black Panthers were being subjected to extreme police harassment. Another incident that supported this view was the killing in a raid by Chicago police of Illinois party leader Fred Hampton and another Panther in 1969; review of this incident revealed that the two Panthers had been shot in their beds without any provocation.
