Forget crime-ridden downtown Beaumont with its Civic Center. Who cares about the floundering Fraud Park in Jefferson County? And just what conventioneer in their right mind would want to go to Port Arthur?
The Lumberton Chamber of Commerce and the city tourist bureau are pleased to announce that the New Black Panther Party will be holding its annual Spring Fling & Beatdown in front of the Lumberton Police Department this year.
City Manager Steve Clark said that Lumberton competed with better known Black Panther communities such as Detroit, New Orleans, Washington, D.C. and Compton, CA. Clark said that community organizers worked tirelessly to bring the Panthers and as many African-Americans as possible because of the large amounts of cash money they are receiving under President Obama's stimulus package.
Mayor Don Surratt said that he has talked with event chairman Quanell X and reminded him that city is dry. Black Panthers, felons and welfare recipients attending should bring their own alcohol.
