The effort among some conservatives to exploit fringe group The New Black Panthers insertion of themselves into the Trayvon Martin story hit another snag today, as Rev. Jesse Jackson, who has been among the leaders of protests over Trayvons killing, denounced the groups distribution of Wanted: Dead or Alive leaflets for, and issuance of a $10,000 bounty for the capture of, Trayvon Martin shooter George Zimmerman.

The New Black Panthers are not affiliated with the original Black Panther Party in any way. In fact, leaders of the original Panthers have denounced the NBPP, even suing them for use of the name, and stating that the New Black Panthers operate on hatred of white people. The NBPP has been designated a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center, and the Anti-Defamation League.
