A now-arrested Arizona man was plotting a racially motivated mass shooting in Georgia to incite a race war ahead of the upcoming election, the federal authorities say.
The Department of Justice says 58-year-old Mark Prieto was planning a mass shooting and wanted to recruit others with racist beliefs.
Court records allege Prieto revealed his plan to FBI informants, which involved shooting up a rap concert in Atlanta, Georgia because he believed there would be more Black people there.
Prieto wanted to carry out his plan sometime before the election.
He's charged with firearms trafficking for use in a hate crime, which is punishable by up to 15 years in prison.
A news release from the DOJ reads, "The indictment alleges that, between January 2024 and May 2024, Prieto had discussions with two individuals working with the Federal Bureau of Investigation to devise a plan to commit a mass shooting of African Americans and other minorities to incite a race war prior to the 2024 United States Presidential Election."

“I remember reading years ago that when TWO people in Red China got together they could talk in secret. If THREE, then one was an informer.
I remember the old “Minutemen” from the early 1960s started by some guy named DePugh.
Then there was “THE ORDER” in the 1980s. all ended up in jail.
I wonder how many of the neo-nazi wannabees over on some web sites are actually FBI agents stirring up trouble?
Some lunatic was willing to have
F-15 Strike Eagle Fighter Jets
mow down his own countrymen, because there weren’t
‘enough’ violet racists to start a Race War?
Perhaps I’m still naive, but
there are times, when the hatred of (innocent) people can be breathtaking. To think that way, even for a minute, one has to de-humanize your prey.
Yes, there are times for carnage, but you better be damn sure this is the only method that will work, in short/long term.
violet = violent.
“...because he believed there would be more Black people there.”
Dude hasn’t been to rap concert in a bit. Mostly white kids.
...hope that helps...
That still might apply even if you are one...
Prieto is of course a Spanish name.
Prieto means dark-colored!
Make of that what you will...
Where's the evidence we aren't?
What is right wing about the plot? Race wars are unconstitutional.
Pretty sure Bill Ayers and the Weather Underground, who tried to store up a race war in the late sixties, were never right wing.
That is quite a plot. FBI taking the easy route to incite the fantasies of the mentally handicapped or low IQ while Tajik bombmakers can freely stroll across the border.
It sounds like the FBI convinced this guy of this crazy plot and then arrested him for it.
Oh, thanks.
You probably never thought somebody out there would take that as a serious remark. Here I sit, “outraged” and guilty as charged. Lol!
They chant such mass murder on many ivy league campuses, no need to entrap a drunk mental midget autistic with informants. Find a tranny.
My thought, “Why bother shooting up a Rap concert? Won’t that just be as likely to happen on its own”?
Agreed. The incredible amount of black on black crime represents a type of cultural self-cleaning oven. Everyone here knows It's Twue.
Didn't Pedo Pete say we're gonna need those? I'm game.
