i think that they were both passionate about working towards a world where their people could live without government oppression. i don't necessarily think that armed action against a government is terrorism. do you consider the Contras terrorists? because they fought against a government, but a lot of conservatives, namely Reagan and co. thought they were great. the "moral equivalent of the Founding fathers" i believe Reagan said. given that the contras are called freedom fighters on this site despite their abysmal human rights record, but the Panthers are called terrorists. i am not going to call the panthers freedom fighters here because this is an encyclopedia, but i think it's wrong to categorize some armed groups as terrorists if you're going to categorize others as freedom fighters. -[[user:emmagrrl|Emmagrrrl]]
