Obama Assassination Attempt Foiled

The skinheads and militias and such have been pretty quiet in recent years. And the government has focused on radical Islamic threats -- which, judging from the courts, may still be a lesser threat than the homegrown guys.

It'll be interesting to see how that changes, or doesn't change, in the face of facts such as this.

Oh, sorry. I'm being reasonable and expressing interest in facts. Completely out of place in this thread. Won't happen again.

Not all skinheads are neo nazis or white nationalists. It is a misnomer to describe these scum as skinheads.

I am a skinhead but I am not racist. Skinhead culture is varied and should not be associated with these scumbags just because they have short hair.

What is "Skinhead culture"?

ETA: Just the essence will do.

Crikey, this is forum heaven.
We have neo-nazis, skinheads, accusations of Republicans being Nazis, presidential assassination, the first black US president, the N word, quotes from Mein Kampf, and Oliver.. all in the same thread.
No wonder it's gone to 7 pages in about 3 hours.

The killing spree was initially to target a predominantly black school, which was not identified in court documents. It was to end, authorities said, with the two suspects — dressed in white tuxedos and top hats — blasting guns from the windows of a speeding vehicle aimed at Obama.

All the while singing "Puttin' on the Ritz"?

We had an anti-racist skinhead from Austria stay with our family on an exchange for several months in the 90s. Dude was pretty nice. Apparently back home the racist skinheads and anti-racist skinheads would have giant battles on the streets, with each side attended to by triages set up by racist/anti-racist doctors. It was like an ongoing war over there I guess!

But ya, skinheads can be either/or but I think in the American context the ones that get the most attention are the racist ones.

The only things they really share in common are their styles of dress, but even then the way they lace up their boots and wear their punk-ish clothes is a signifier of which side they're on. Fights start over someones laces all the time. Politically, the two sides really couldn't be further apart, maybe they only share a kind of "f*ck it" punk attitude.

'tis an odd mind indeed that draws reassurance from the fact that no one else sees things the way they do.

This reminds me again why I am pro gun control. For me Obama's views on gun control are too moderate but at least he supports the following principles :

- Ban the sale or transfer of all forms of semi-automatic weapons.
- Increase state restrictions on the purchase and possession of firearms.
- Require manufacturers to provide child-safety locks with firearms.

This is the only area in which I really disagree with Obama and the issue is actually dead with a majority of Democrats, other than a few outspoken indivduials, so it isn't likely to go anywhere.

Banning semi-automatics doesn't make that big a difference. I can put about as many rounds on target in the same time with my No 1 MkIII or my revolver as I have seen a lot of younger guys do with their M16s or Glocks.

Each weapon probably should be covered by a title like an automobile, and gun ownership should be limited to those who can pass the same background and training requirements as the Texas concealed carry law (No addicts, lunatics, felons, wife beaters or kiddie fiddlers and you have to qualify with your weapon.) And there should be an organized militia so that everyone who owns a weapon has a place to fall in and defend the community in an emergency. (That's what the 2nd Ammendment was supposed to be for.)

Read "The Turner Diaries." The white nationalists want us not to be well-armed.

Imaghine, under my scheme, what sort of rule 10 storm these idiots would find themselves walking into.

What about protecting children from their parents irrational ideas?

How about we tighten up on the freedoms guaranteed in the 1st Amendment?

It is amazing how a child today is just too ill-prepared to survive in the world without protective devices on every possible common household item. The furniture has to be bolted down for fear the child will climb it and it will fall on them. All electrical outlets have to be blocked off. No plastic bags allowed. Cribs with slats too close together, or too far apart. Toys that would pose a problem only if the child doesn't have the sense of a puppy.

How did children survive and prosper before parents started treating their children like hot house plants to be protected from the same surroundings that didn't pose a threat to all the generations of children that came before now.

I doubt SisterSmile even knows what a "semi-automatic" is. But you never answered the question about whether Obama would impose further restrictions on the 1st Amendment. You said it was paranoia. The fatc that many Obama supporters share SisterSmile's views on firearms, it sure seems Obama might be, pardon the pun, under the gun.
 
Before helmet laws, I knew a lot of kids with brain damage due to bicycle accidents. There are fewer now.

I notice that the post-helmet-law kids are less likely to grow up to be Republicans.
