An Arizona man who received a "strange and mysterious" e-mail apologizing for the slaying of a Red Bluff cop launched investigators on the trail of an ex-Army private who was arrested four days later in New Hampshire.

Neil Wright, 50, said he had received an e-mail from "Mitch Stephens" at americanresistance@yahoo.com at about 6 p.m. Friday on his home computer in Lake Havasu City and called police an hour later.

While following this story I have surfed onto some underground sites, and they also HATE FReepers, they have posted some of our photos on their links, commenting on our posts, they truely dispise us.

Just so. And there are at least some in their ranks who hate enough to commit murder, and others who will send them forth to do so.

That's nothing to be particularly frightened of, but it's wise to be prepared for the possibility that one or more of them will act on their criminal inclinations.

In the Army, he was a private stationed at Fort Campbell, Ky. until his discharge in 2001. That fall, McCrae enrolled in college at Evergreen State College in Olympia, Wash.

This fact alone will make any trial very interesting. If Brainwashing is a possible defense, McCrae may have an out. McCrae would certainly not be the first, nor the second, wack-job student associated with the Evergreen State College to murder someone.

Indeed. And before killing the California police officer, McCrae may have been involved in a similar ambush murder in Seattle on 11 October 2001, shooting to death an unarmed U.S. Attorney before taking on an armed police officer.

And, by seeing their reactions, fear us.
They hate us so much but they can't get us out of their little, petty minds.
