Yeah but the cops have been scared of a real fight forever. They're cowards who like to attack people who can't or won't fight back, but shy away from anything where they might meet organized resistance; the Black Panthers proved it, long before I was even born

Exactly why Reagan passed the Mulford Act when he was governor of California.

If you didn't, I was about to. California is anti-gun because one time black people had guns and Reagan didn't like it.

I met a couple of those OG Black Panthers recently. I like them a lot, they are surprisingly chill dudes that like to smoke weed

Admittedly I don't know how much fight will be left in me when I'm in my late 70s and early 80s

You don't have to have the fight in you, you have to inspire the fight in the youth
