I know nothing about that particular cop, but calling everyone the Black Panthers oppose as racists is like calling everyone Israel oppose as antisemites.
It was a paramilitary group who used coercion and threats of violence to make political statements. The word for that is terrorism. They supposedly wanted to pick up the torch of MalcomX as Black Separatists who saw Integration as a failure.
Some of the party leadership were nonviolent and wanted to participate in local governments and social outreach, while others wanted constant conflict with the establishment, leading the party to split apart. If you constantly search for conflict and violence, you will find it.
That’s great advice!
Though my inner academic wants to try to measure the additional positive impact of killing a (almost certainly?) racist cop…
