They've caught a couple of the guys involved in that brazen act of vandalism caught on tape late last week. ("Vandalism" doesn't seem to really cover it, does it, since this was a violent act as well.) Looks like they are, indeed, members of a "Black Muslim" group, though not the Nation of Islam.

CNN: Two held after taped store vandalism

OAKLAND, California (AP) -- A man linked to a black Muslim group was among two men who turned themselves in to police Tuesday for their roles in vandalizing a pair of stores for selling alcohol to blacks, police said...

Yusef Bey IV, 19, and Donald Cunningham, 73, turned themselves in to face charges including robbery, felony vandalism and terrorist threats, Oakland Deputy Police Chief Howard Jordan said...

...Jordan said the suspects are not members of the Nation of Islam. He held out the possibility that they belong to a separate black Muslim group based in Oakland.

In 1993, Muslims affiliated with that separate group, which operates the Your Black Muslim Bakery store chain and whose members also wear suits and bow ties, were involved in a similar incident at a Richmond liquor store, police said. Bey has been linked to that group, police said.

Investigators were looking into the recent vandalism as hate crimes because the store owners are of Middle Eastern background and are Muslims, Jordan said Monday...

Call me a racist if you like but the black so-called muslims in this country are terrorists plain and simple in many cases. I was a white prison guard for nearly fifteen years and part of my Sunday duties was to oversee(not intefere with)the muslim services. In all my 40 some years had I heard such hate spew forth for the white race and our American traditions. I'm all for racial equality but I actually want to see this type of 'hate crime' prosecuted to it's fullest extent and immediately! Actually I'd like to see them deported.......
