FBI: South Carolina man bought gun for attack

Quote:
A white supremacist with felony convictions in South Carolina bought a gun from an undercover FBI agent, telling the agent he planned an attack in "the spirit of Dylann Roof," authorities said Thursday.

Benjamin McDowell, 28, was arrested in Myrtle Beach shortly after buying the .40-caliber Glock and ammunition for $109 from the agent who picked him up at his mother's house, then took him to his grandfather's house to get the money, FBI agent Grant Lowe wrote in an affidavit.

Nice. Seems like a swell little White Nationalist. Let's go kill some innocent people...

Where do we deport this potential domestic terrorist to?

I couldn't take it seriously as soon as I read the word "white supremacist".

These buzzwords make it kinda obvious in this day and age.

This wacko, Roof and Lanza are examples A, B & C of why we really should not let people with deep psychological issues purchase guns.


I'm from his home town and am anxiously awaiting word of the various nutjob tendencies he has previously displayed. These guys never just snap. There are always pretty significant warnings. It will be interesting to see how FBI netted him- a strategic tip or if he just wanted to illegally buy a gun they were using as random bait.

You mean like "Black" or "Muslim"?

They seem to be proliferated from the white nationalist 'movement'. I wonder if details about the communication paths he had will be released..

It appears that he has been there a bit too. Doesn't look like he skipped any meals either.

In a random sample in Japan most people turned out to be Japanese.


I believe the liberal brain is proportionally smaller than the average wombat's.
