A black man who pretended to be a white supremacist on the Internet has entered a guilty plea to charges that he issued death threats.
U.S. Attorney Jim Letten says 20-year old Dyron Hart pled guilty in federal court to "communicating threats in interstate commerce."
"According to court documents, Hart... admitted that he created a fictitious name and used the photograph of a white supremacist to communicated a threat. He then purported to be a person outraged by the election of President Barack Obama," Letten said in a news release.
Letten says that Hart sent the threat to an African American student at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux "indicating he wanted to kill African American individuals because of the election of the President."
Hart now faces a maximum 5 years in prison and a fine of $250,0000.
Sentencing has been scheduled for November 18, 2009.
Is it just me, or have we been seeing a TREND in such incidents?
Leftist must divide and create hatred between people, or they will cease to exist.
Lucky he’s a black liberal or he would have gotten more than 5 years.
Alinsky tactic. Saul Alinsky once advised leftist student protestors that were totally against any member of the GOP to dress up as KKK members and go to a speech by Nixon at their university. Alinsky advised them to cheer and flash signs supporting Nixon during the whole speech.
Obama’s Nazi Straw man: An Old Alinsky Trick

A trend that is just getting started.
There are more phony incidents than real ones! Is is good to see one get caught!
Same here
People, this man is not a racist, nor can he ever be one. He’s black, though on the internet he’s white.
There was a report that a protester outside of the Dingell office was actually a Dingell staffer/volunteer or something. This is a very common tactic for the left.
Maybe Drudge should link to this article? Or has he? I haven’t checked yet.
Lefties have always done things like that. They like to paint their own doors at universities with swastikas and burn crosses on black church yards. It all comes from their “street theater” used to illustrate supposed intolerable conditions, especially when the believed evil forces don’t act as they are imagined to. People don’t believe you enough when you raise the alarm if NAZIs aren’t actually burning synagogues and leftist professors’ homes so it has to all be synthesized
Remember a few years ago that female lefty college professor who claimed her car was painted over with swastikas and racist writing? She then later confessed to doing this herself.
Another US Attorney about to be fired. This could easily become real popcorn time.
CNN International: "Hart told an FBI interviewer that he intended the threat to be a prank 'to get a reaction.'"
Well, that 'splains it.
CNN International: "'This is an extremely odd case, a very unusual case,' said U.S. Attorney Jim Letten of the Eastern District of Louisiana.
Gee nothing like this has ever happened before. Fake "hate" crimes, who'd thunk.
Meanwhile, Swastika David Scott, gets almost 1,000 hits.
State controlled American media (SCAM) employees doing what they always do.
There is no such thing as a fake hate crime. The person who does one of these hoaxes must be arrested and charged with exactly the SAME crime no matter what his race.
Won’t happen. Hate crime laws were created solely for the purpose of putting Whites in jail for anything they do or say, or don’t do or say, and letting people who attack them go free for the same crimes.
