As I understand it, the black Panthers were so successful, laws were passed to stop them; why don't people LEGALLY walk in groups open carrying to keep ICE polite?

In states that allow open carry without a permit, do so; in ones that require a permit or license, get one; of course again, keep everything within the bounds of the law.

Edit: also travel in groups, the larger the better

How did the Black Panthers fund themselves? It's hard to get programs off the ground because we're all poor...

I'm not studied on the history of the black panthers. In a very simple explanation, marxist-leninist party formations rely on having a pool of membership who pay dues to a sufficient degree that dedicated cadre members of the party can officially go on the party payroll to become a professional revolutionary who's life is dedicated to fulfilling the will of the party.

In addition to the other answer - grant writing and selling newspapers.
