Charles Barron: “My immediate response is ‘take off the ex,’ because I’m still a Panther at heart. And I’m proud to be a Panther because the Black Panther Party fed children breakfast. It had a clothing drive for struggling people in our communities. It led the research drive around sickle cell anemia, a rare blood disease peculiar to black people. As far as the guns and the actions with the police, that wasn’t even a major part of our program. That was for self-defense against police brutality.”

I seem to remember reading that Al Capone did a bit of comminity aid in his day as well. Guess he got a bad rap.
