Improbable terrorist plots
I posted about the two young Neo-Nazi's who were arrested for planning to assassinate Obama at DetNews last night but more details are emerging. They expected to be killed by the Secret Service in the attempt and were really planned to go out in style, dressed in white tuxedos and white top hats.
Clearly these two kids were just blowhards and although they had a few guns, didn't have the wits or the necessary weaponry to carry out the threats. But as I said at DetNews, the Feds cavalier attitude about the threats is in sharp contrast to the equally improbable "terrorist attack plots they so triumphantly touted as being crucial in the so-called war on terror. The difference being is somehow I doubt these two white boys are going to stand trial and no GOPer will be wringing their hands over the threat of skinhead domestic terrorism. [via Avedon]
