If you haven't heard the news yet, the Feds disrupted a plot to assassinate Barack Obama and about 88 other black students in Tennessee. According to the Feds, the plan included killing about 100 African Americans and beheading 14. An assassination attempt to kill Obama would have included the men wearing White Tuxedos. Here is a link to the details of the story.
While many have assumed that a plot like this was bound to happen eventually, I think it shows that America has such a long way to go. Just when it looks like our country has reached new heights with an African American running for President, some citizens like the ones shown above bring our country lower with ignorance and racism. While some Americans try to justify the war with Iraq and justify the idea that America should be a country that leads by example, we have Americans here who want to perform the same acts as the terrorists that we are trying to stop by displaying plans of a killing spree and beheading. While I'm glad these men were stopped, this news proves to be a sad day for America. I'm sure there are more men like these men out there who share this hatred and ignorance. How long will we have to wait for this foolishness to come to an end.

Not surprised at all. It's pretty clear that these people aren't that intelligent either. Posting pictures on myspace while holding assault rifles is a fairly easy way to attract attention to yourself. The real threats are the one's who actually know what they're doing.
