Government Foils Skinhead Plot to Assassinate Obama [court records unsealed just before elections]

Skinheads planned to kill Obama and 102 others in Tennessee.

Federal agents have disrupted a plot to assassinate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate dozens of black students in Tennessee, the ATF said Monday. 

In court records unsealed Monday, federal agents said they disrupted plans to rob a gun store and target a predominantly African-American high school by two neo-Nazi skinheads. Agents said the skinheads did not identify the school by name. 

A source in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives told FOX News that the two skinheads, who were picked up in Crockett County, Tenn., were plotting to shoot 88 black students and decapitate 14 others described as non-whites. The source said officials believe the suspects were planning to attempt an assassination against Obama. 

The numbers 88 and 14 are symbolic in the white supremacist community. 

But officials could not describe how advanced or credible the plot was, nor could they say if they had contacted the Obama campaign. 

Jim Cavanaugh, special agent in charge of the Nashville field office for the ATF, said the suspects also sought to go on a national killing spree, with Obama as its final target.

Cowart and Schlesselman met via the internet through a mutual friend

Wouldn't be surprised if their Mutual Friend, turned out to be a BATFE agent, or confidential informant, that they've "got something" on, acting on their behalf. Like the guy who supposedly got Randy Weaver to "cut down" a shotgun (Weaver claimed that the gun was regulation length, short but legal, when it left his possession).

Nah, it’s all over national news. Fox is jumping up and down with it. I’m surprised they didn’t wait until the weekend.

Then the local news comes on here in Tucson with interviews of panting Democrats saying McCain may lose Arizona.

Disgusting. I can’t get to the off button fast enough.

I just heard on the news, that it was a plot to attack a Black high school and eventually end up with killing Barack Obama. In other words, killing Barack Obama was something they were thinking about doing after they killed everyone that was on their immediate list.

Retards. Wonder what cow they got that shroom under.

No, no, I think that this is a mental health issue, not a hate crime. I think that these men need to spend some time in a mental health facility and be rehabilitated. This is all the government’s fault because the government didn’t supply the funds and access to mental health for these fine young men. I bet that they grew up in poverty and were abused by the system, too.

I’ll give a crap about this story as soon as they take the time to fully expose ACORN and the Obama’s Buddy - Ayers Weather Underground plot to kill 25 million people, just for starters, who don’t agree with Communist ideology as a form of government in America.

Until then, it appears there is just a slight double standard in priorities for protecting the majority over the minority. And where double standards exist, I tend to not give a crap exponentially.

Obama is about as far Marxist as they come - but uncommonly good at the silver-tongued routine. So was Stalin, Mao, Hussein and Hitler. Dipsh*t Americans who have become pacifist and feminized (school system run by Ayers types) have lost their will to fight. And this is the perfect time for a Marxist takeover.

Until then - whatever.

Two dumb rednecks if you don’t count the girlfriend

It always amazes me that guys this stupid can still get girlfriends, even ugly ones. I guess stupidity knows no gender.

Anyone who basis their decision to vote for him because some wacked out skinhead threatedn to kill him are pretty lame

Anyone who hasn't decided by this point is pretty lame. Probably doesn't take much to push them over the edge. According to what I heard on Hannity this afternoon, 12% are still "undecided".

These guys are potential domestic terrorists - unlike Bill Ayers, who was a real domestic terrorist and who had a huge network of domestic terrorist friends. I wonder if they’ll get off on a technicality too?

This is what we need to go with.

Skinheads are domestic terrorists just like Obama's friend William Ayers.

Yes, there is a substantial number who are undecided. But I am convinced that they are the ones judging policies, not national enquirer politics.

I shouldn't have compared those two with Neo Nazi idiots but I couldn't help it after seeing Nathan Johnson's pic.

Those guys are actually billionaires in the international car crushing/steel recycling business. They moved overseas to avoid high taxes, regulations and unions. /s

Goodness... a few really ticked off Vol fans?? At least they won't have to change out of their prison clothes to go to games!

.... I know, I really should be ashamed of myself!

While I doubt these Einsteins would have succeeded at all, I'm glad they were caught. They belong under the jail! Skinheads are about 100 layers below pondscum in my book.
