White supremacist sentenced for plotting to blow up Jewish landmarks (Don't be fooled)

White supremacist sentenced for plotting to blow up Jewish landmarks
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOSTON

A mixed-race white supremacist was sentenced to almost 22 years in prison Wednesday for plotting to blow up black and Jewish landmarks in Boston and Washington.

Prosecutors accused Leo Felton, 31, and his girlfriend, Erica Chase, 22, of trying "to ignite a racial holy war ... that would promote chaos among the races."

Felton, son of a black father and white mother, has said he blames his parents for "contaminating" him with black blood.

"I've committed crimes here, I'm not trying to say I'm a good person or a nice guy," Felton said before sentencing. "But not every thing that has been attributed to me in these cases are understandable by these simplistic formulas."

Felton and Chase were convicted in July of charges including conspiring to make a bomb, conspiring to make counterfeit bills and obstruction of justice. He was sentenced to 21 years and 10 months in prison. Chase's sentencing is scheduled for Jan. 31.

The couple was arrested in April 2001 when an off-duty police officer spotted Chase passing a counterfeit $20 bill. Investigators said Felton was making the phony money to help fund their plan and had already gathered most of the materials to make a bomb, including a 22.5-kilogram bag of ammonium nitrate, the fertilizer used in the Oklahoma City bombing.

Defense lawyers maintained the couple were being prosecuted for their beliefs and never planned to carry out violent acts.

Felton was a member of the White Order of Thule, and Chase belonged to the World Church of the Creator. They met after Chase corresponded with Felton while he was in prison for the attempted murder of a black taxi driver.

Sounds like they watched "Helter Skelter" a few too many times.

"Thule" is the Latin word for Iceland; interestingly though, it's derived from "thyle", a word meaning "to speak" in Old Norse.

I've seen pictures of the guy. He's got "skin" tattooed on one side of his head & "head" on the other. When the news broke that his mom was white & his dad was black, he went ballistic cuz when he went back to the big house he couldn't play with his old friends. I think he wrote some nasty letters to the Boston Herald about it.

Catspaw, this has to be one of the most outstanding examples of the results of breeding for *intelligence* I have ever seen. If 76 is borderline genious to these dimwits, what suppose you an IQ of minus 8 will do for their superhuman program?

They sure aren't! Why is it that those who claim White Supremacy seem to be least qualified for it? : )

Some proto-Nazi ideologues in prewar Germany had a group called the Thule Society where they discussed racial theories and the occult.

Alfred Rosenberg and other Nazi "theorists" belonged to this circle.

In their worldview, Thule was code for a perfect Aryan society beyond the sea - and they consciously used this archaic term for Iceland on purpose to symbolize it.

Either that or barf until I Shiite. What a freak.

I was raised a Christian, but looking at dad's pictures wearing a Khafeya when he was a young man working in Saudi, I suspect there's a Hebrew in the woodpile. (Dad had pure German heritage...arab headress made him look like Sheik Yer Bootie. I'm talking PROUD semitic probiscus. Nice melanoma resistant pigmentation. BZZZT- survey says: Converso!)

Fine by me- wish I could have inherited a bit more of the smarts. Sweet Bouncing Buddha on a pogo stick- be glad of who came before you- they had what it takes to survive. I'd rather be a raggedy assed mutt than a hot-house HRH hemophiliac anyday.

Maybe if I had some Irish in me I'd handle my liquor better, and my posts would make more sense when I've had a few....(hic)

Better check that remark about the Irish and handling their liquor. The ones I know don't know their limitations and are usually the first to show their inebreation(sp?).

Yeah, they can handle the booze, they can drink the booze, but they are also the first to act on a drunken thought. JMHO

Something doesn't sound right there.

"maybe there's something my mom didn't tell me... *grin*"

Perhaps mine, too. But there's a fine line between racial profiling and common sense. This must be stated, and known to be true.

If 76 is borderline genious

Genious? LOL! I know you meant genius, but by putting an IQ of 76 in the same sentence with "genious" had me ROFL. Bad place for a typo.

My wife and I did a IQ test online once and we got a 136, which means we have an IQ of 68, each.

But only on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Tuesday, Thursday and alternate weekends he's a black racist of the Nation of Islam.

I don't know about you, but I sense from Leo's mug shot that he's awfully lonely....for the time being.

That tears it! The next wake you go to will be your own.

It's inebriation, BTW.

The World Church of the Creator mention was interesting and a little scary. There is a WCOC hoedown planned in my town next month, which is extremely weird. I have never even heard of white supremacy in Maine before, but it is here......I would hate to see anyone get hurt.

"Genious? LOL! I know you meant genius, but by putting an IQ of 76 in the same sentence with "genious" had me ROFL. Bad place for a typo."

And you've definitely gotten the proper blush because of it. Glad my screen doesn't show it.
It's almost as bad as the ignorance of Kudzu's icon on LF. Someone should tell her to stop embarrassing herself and explain to the agitprop, Kudzu, that her Icon on LF is of someone who absolutely would have hated the Wahanabi Sauds since she was instrumental in setting up the HASHIMITE(Brit-spell)KINGDOM, and that the only way her murdering buds got their bloody hands on Mecca and Medina was because the barbarian head of the House of Saud murdered King Hussein's father in Iraq, then went and wrote the most bloodthirsty poem to celebrate his *victory* I have ever seen.
Someone ought to tell her, really, but not me. Not me. I think she really IS a *genuous* and I love it. Section 8. ;-)
