White supremacists arrested on 'race war' charges in Florida
The Chicago Tribune / The Los Angeles Times ^ | May 8, 2012 | Richard Fausset

Law enforcement officials in central Florida have been rounding up members of a white supremacist group who were allegedly training with weapons at a rural Osceola County compound. The training was reportedly in preparation for a coming "race war."

The group was also planning a "disturbance" at Orlando City Hall to recruit new members, according to court documents.

The arrests of the 10 alleged members of the neo-Nazi skinhead group American Front, or AF, came after a confidential informant infiltrated its Osceola County chapter and shared information about the group's plans with state investigators.

The arrests serve as one of numerous reminders of the efforts of law enforcement to monitor, and sometimes crack down on, the militia and hate groups whose numbers have ticked up since the election of President Obama.

In Alaska on Monday, a 12-member jury was selected in the trial of three militia members who are accused of planning to kill judges and police, according to the Anchorage Daily News. In Georgia on Tuesday, two militia members who had allegedly planned to attack government workers and buildings attended a pretrial hearing after two of their alleged conspirators agreed to cooperate with federal prosecutors, according to the Associated Press.

Seven of the arrests in Florida occurred over the weekend, with three more suspects arrested Monday, according to court documents and a statement from the office of Lawson Lamar, the state attorney based in Orlando.

Each of the seven, including the apparent ringleader, Marcus Faella, 41, faces state felony charges of attempting to shoot into an occupied dwelling, evidence of prejudice while committing a crime, and violation of a state "paramilitary training" statute....

"Any Black Panthers in jail for putting a million dollar bounty on George Zimmerman's head?"

Nope... Eric Holder sees to it that his bruthas are free to recruit more obomba youth while others belonging to other races are expected to bend over and take it.

For the record... It's not a "bounty." It's a "contract" but... that's ok. trayvon looks like the wanna be father, the white/black president obomba, imaginary son. His problem is the white/black president obomba isn't man enough to father a son.

I don’t understand why you commented in the first place;I was speaking to Jewbacca,not you.

All I asked him was if he has a problem with anti-Semitic comments because he wears his kippah and had a Slurpee thrown at him. What is so offensive about that to you? I wasn’t even addressing you.

Again,what does this have to do with you,and why are you so pissed?

Read post 33 and come back to reality. He simply asked if antisemitic incidents were common for him. I am curious also if its an issue. Mostly I'm curious where/whom gives him the biggest problem. JMHO blacks are on average the most racist identifiable group of people.

You seemed to react very poorly to a question you were not asked and you didn't understand and were incorrect in your statements. I will now just mentally note that your future posts have very little value and probably a complete disregard for facts and comprehension.

"When was the last time you were accosted due to your ethnicity?"

Great question, because its answer highlights the fact that there is no era, region or skin color that's immune to hateful prejudice. Thrice in my life I have been in mortal peril due to what could be referred to as my "ethnicity," and/or physical appearance:

1978 Hawai'i (a group of teenage "Mokes" {Native Hawai'ians} with a massive, constipated ringleader sneered at me "We're gonna cut your fu__in' heart out, you stinkin' haolie!" near the International Marketplace, Waikiki, Oahu.

1982 Miami FL (drunken Redneck Mafia losers in a bar in Homestead accused me of "lookin' like Satan..." over my long hair, goatee and Fu-Manchu mustache. Keep in mind, these were White guys... sort of...)

1988 South Central L.A. (a gang of hermanos in a '68 Impala "Low Rider" followed me and my then-fiancée for several convoluted left-right-left blocks before I finally shook them at a red light).

There is no skin color, racial group or social caste which has ever been immune to prejudice, or completely free from some form of slavery or other oppressive/brutal tyranny.

Weird, huh? It's enough to make you want to just stay home and oil the vast gun collection.

That photo of the two (actual) brothers at the bottom of that pathetic list is hysterically, poignantly funny. How I would love five minutes alone in a room with those two drooling, functionally-and-socially illiterate imbeciles. They actually believe they're so very baaaad-ass.

I'd just teach them to pray...

"Who is she?"

Scarlett Johannsen (Swedish by appearance... among other things, including "NOT GUILTY!").

LMAO!

Don’t forget LaRaza.
 
The Anasazi certainly won't.   But oddly enough "Who Ate the Anasazi?"...

http://www.google.com/#hl=en&gs_nf=1&cp=10&gs_id=cr&xhr=t&q=Anasazi+cannibalism

...is not a topic covered on the "Culturally uplifting" folklorico graffiti down at La Raza Park.

Fortunately for all Americans, we have a Republic with laws that keep that sort of tribal/religious tyranny from proliferating within.... for now.

If you’d had a gun you could have shot the bastards and claimed you thought they were throwing acid on you.

Ok... So what REAL law did they break? Who was their Victim? What damage was done? Where is the tort here?

"He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself." Thomas Paine

I have no love for skinheads and other assorted low-brow inbred types. I have even less love for an out of control government goading these same groups just to pull a publicity stunt like this. The double standard aside, this is dangerous sh*t for a government to be doing.
