    Brooklyn, NY – Police are investigating a radical Jewish group after it plastered fliers over Brooklyn Councilman Charles Barron's office, calling him an anti-Semite for voting for the defeated proposal to name a street after controversial black activist Sonny Carson.

    Barron's staff arrived at his East New York office to find the front door covered with fliers from the Jewish Defense Organization, accusing Barron of stirring the 1991 Crown Heights riots alongside Carson. The fliers also called for him and his chief of staff, Viola Plummer, to be fired. A copy of the flier was posted on the JDO's Web site.

    Barron, a former Black Panther, called on police to charge the JDO with a hate crime after his staff claimed they had also received death threats.
    "I believe it rises to the level of a hate crime," an angry Barron said. "All of this over a street name change." [NY-Post]

    Let’s get the political orientation correct!

    JDO is NOT a “radical” organization. They are REACTIONARY!

    I lived in Crown Heights when Sonny Carson Yemach Shemo stirred up trouble there. He gave out fliers encouraging his cohorts to rob Jewish owned stores etc.

    The gall of this councilman to support the name change.

    It says that before Moshiach comes all the nations of the world will show their true colors concerning their feelings toward the Jews(and Hashem). That way on the day of Judgement they will get their just desserts.

    LOOKING FORWARD!!!

    Didn’t he just say that an assasination threat towards his opponent was a joke?! Only to him is it considered serious?!
