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.

If Obama gets in, would not be suprising that there will be more attemps.

Bets on how long it takes to expose this as a fraud? I will place a bet of whatever, that the media will not report it when it is exposed.


That’s exactly what this is. Total BS. They’ve probably had this planned since last year.

sounds like a pretty unsophisticated bunch. they didn’t even actually have weapons, they planned to rob a gun store. Just not sure what they planned to rob it with.

what does ‘102 blacks disrupted’ mean?

I was wondering that, too. It makes it sound like they hid their keys or put up a detour sign or something to put a kink their day.

Ok, so this wasn’t an actual attempt, it was a “plot” that was broken up. I would say it is a ploy for the sympathy vote.

I have to agree with you. I don’t see how this helps him in the polls at all. It will, however, take his 2001 audio tape off the front page. I wonder when it actually happened and why the release of the info now?

Drudge’s siren is gone; the 2001 interview headline is back in large print, and the “’Skinhead’ Plot” headline is back to small text...

Something odd about it that it got downgraded so fast...

David Hemel, Joel Speyer, Heather Halstead and Marc Gustafson?
