Arrest of Neo-Nazis in Obama Assassination Plot a Reminder of Enduring White Supremacist Culture in US

<snip>On Monday, police arrested twenty-year-old Daniel Cowart and eighteen-year-old Paul Schlesselman for possession of unregistered firearms, conspiring to steal firearms and making threats against a presidential candidate. Police say the men were plotting to kill 102 African American students and then assassinate Barack Obama. While police say no formal plan was ever developed, a search is on for other individuals who may been involved.

Officials told ABC News that Obama has been the target of an estimated 500 threats, most of which are not taken seriously. But in an estimated dozen or so cases, the threat was considered serious enough that law enforcement agents were assigned to track down suspects.

If ever there was a good reason for all the spying on Americans, this would be it. Catch these inbred m*ther f*ckers before they carry out their racist plans.

1. that's why I got chills when I read McCain's reference to "neo nazis" the other day.

I thought it was troubling that McCain would say "and if there was a tape of John McCain with a Neo Nazi outfit.... " Just creepy that he'd bring that up. What is it with that campaign and their little code word bullshit.
