Robert Stacy McCain’s Neo-Nazi Friend Convicted of Soliciting Violence

US News • Views: 21,786

Racist blogger Robert Stacy McCain’s neo-Nazi pal Bill White (they met at a 2002 conference of the white nationalist group American Renaissance, and McCain then helped get White’s articles published in the Washington Times), has been convicted in Chicago for using his hate site overthrow.com to incite violence against a jury foreman, and faces up to ten years in prison.

Bill WhiteA neo-Nazi whose online rants struck fear in Roanoke and across the country was convicted of using his website to solicit violence Wednesday, just two weeks before his scheduled release from prison.

William A. White was found guilty of encouraging harm to the foreman of a Chicago jury that convicted a fellow white supremacist in 2004. The verdict came on the third day of a trial in U.S. District Court in Chicago.

White, 33, the leader of a Roanoke-based white supremacy group, has been serving a 2½-year sentence following his convictions last year in Roanoke of threatening a bank employee in Missouri, a university administrator in Delaware and a group of apartment tenants in Virginia Beach.

Since McCain’s friend also threatened me and tried to find my home address and the addresses of my family members, I’ll be very glad to see him go to jail for a long time.

A well deserved guilty verdict, and here’s hoping that he gets the max sentence under law.

I hate the (neo) Nazis.

Prison is the right place for that asshole, and anyone else who foments violence.

I really like the word foment. Sucks that I have such opportunities these days to use it.

Is there any way to make sure he is only locked up with Blacks and Hispanics? Or would that be cruel & unusual (to the Blacks and Hispanics)

Sometimes, prison scentences can be too long.

I believe that in a lot of places these days they tend to try to house prisoners with people of their own race, to cut down on problems.

That said, I think a whole bunch of incarcerated gentlemen of color, and this one fella, wouldn’t cause many problems.

More on the packages in MD from the WSJ:

“DHS is aware and closely monitoring reports of an incident involving two packages that arrived at two Maryland state facilities,” a federal Department of Homeland Security official said.

The Maryland Emergency Management Agency sent out a bulletin that two packages delivered to state facilities had “detonated” creating small explosions. One of the packages looked like a book-mailer, according to the bulletin. All Maryland state agencies were told to lock down their mail rooms immediately.

The packages were delivered to the Jeffrey Building in downtown Annapolis and the Maryland Department of Transportation headquarters in Hanover, near the Baltimore-Washington International Airport.

It started when Breitbart attacked me out of the blue a couple of days ago, for noting that Andrew Napolitano is a 9/11 Truther. He brought up Van Jones in a pathetic attempt to excuse Napolitano, and it’s developed from there into a discussion of his shabby smear of Shirley Sherrod.

Packages Explode At Maryland State Government Buildings

Maryland officials say two packages have exploded in two government buildings in the state capital and another city.

Maryland state police say there were no serious injuries. The explosions occurred Thursday afternoon at the Jeffrey Building on Francis Street in downtown Annapolis and another at the Maryland Department of Transportation building in Hanover.

I wonder if it was a disgruntled ex-employee or something as I would think lone-wolf jihadis or anti-government types would go after federal facilities, and “professional” terrorists would try for something more spectacular.

I guess we’ll find out soon enough. From what I’ve been reading so far it sounds like there weren’t any serious injuries, thank goodness.

re: #35 Alouette

This true about a lot of the gangs. Also, this guy was convicted of soliciting violence, not actually doing violence. Thugs don’t get credit from other thugs for soliciting crime, they get credit for doing crime. I’m nice middle class girl who went through a brief “bad boy” phase so a have some passing familiarity with the mindset and this guys has no real bragging rights. I don’t think the Aryan Brotherhood will be impressed.

It doesn’t sound like Jihadis to me. Probably either an anti-government wingnut or someone with a grudge over a traffic ticket/court ruling/Tax dispute.

Do we know for sure these were bombs? There are other things that can explode and/or catch fire — batteries, spray cans, etc.

“A law enforcement source tells CBS News the package in Annapolis was addressed to Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley at the governor’s mansion, but was taken to the state offices.

The packages created smoke and an odor when they were opened, and CBS reports one flamed up while the other fizzled. Maryland State Police spokesman Greg Shipley says the packages were small, describing them as about the size of a book.”

Incendiary device

Incendiary weapons, incendiary devices or incendiary bombs are bombs designed to start fires or destroy sensitive equipment using materials such as napalm, thermite, chlorine trifluoride, or white phosphorus.

“Why, I am, of course!” I answered.

She then trotted into the room where her dad was: Dad, who’s smarter, you or Mom?

And of course, Mrs. Satty is a better driver than you, correct?
Right?

Mrs Satty has hit everything but the lottery!!
3rd week she had her new car, she backed out of a friends
driveway taking the mailbox with her

4 weeks ago she got a tad too close to a drive up ATM machine
(the new drivers side mirror will be installed next week to replace the one that ended up on the banks parking lot)

Irrelevant.
She’s a better driver than you.
Geez, I’m single and I know this shit!

I’ve actually been “teaching him” (rules of the road,, what to look for ,, preaching that cars aren’t toys,,, taking him to a freinds owened auto body shop to see what one looks like after a teen was drinking/ driving)

FWIW, as a former Harley rider, I can tell you that the single most useful skill I deep-learned was extending my vision far in front of me. I don’t recall ever hearing that emphasized in any of my training classes as a fledgling driver, but learning it changed me as a driver permanently and positively. You’ll be doing the other drivers of the world a great service if you can manage to get that little nugget embedded in his driving habits….

NPR exec resigns as review of Williams’ firing concludes

[Link: news.yahoo.com…]

“Ellen Weiss, the NPR executive who fired news analyst Juan Williams by phone in October, resigned Thursday just as NPR’s Board of Directors released recommendations based on an independent review of the incident.

NPR released two statements Thursday, both the Board’s recommendations and news about Weiss’s departure. And each statement mentions the other. Still, NPR spokeswoman Anna Christopher told The Cutline that “these are two distinct pieces of news.”“

Riiight.

Guess everyone already heard that Obama picked William Daley for Chief of Staff. He’s a member of the JP Morgan Chase Executive Committee. He’s also a Board of Director for Merck & Co. Nice combo here. Big bank and big pharma. Vely intellesting.

Move On speaks out:

Meanwhile MoveOn.org, a leading liberal organization, highlighted Daley’s ties to “Big Banks and Big Business,” saying his selection “is troubling and sends the wrong message to the American people.”

“If President Obama listens to that kind of political advice from Bill Daley, Democrats will suffer a disastrous 2012,” said Adam Green, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, which recently launched a television ad in Iowa criticizing the president’s compromise on Bush-era tax rates.

Then there the US Chamber of Commerce connection:

WASHINGTON, D.C.-The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce that A.B. Culvahouse, chairman of O’Melveny & Myers LLP, will succeed Robert K. Steel as co-chair of the Commission on the Regulation of U.S. Capital Markets in the 21st Century. Steel, retired vice chairman of Goldman Sachs & Co., stepped down from the commission following his confirmation by the United States Senate as undersecretary of the treasury for domestic finance. Culvahouse, a member of the commission since its formation earlier this year, will serve as co-chair with William M. Daley, chairman of the Midwest Region of JPMorgan Chase and a former Secretary of Commerce.

What was that about the Chamber of Commerce? Thought I read some things last year. Guess it was leader “retracted”.

Will Obama anger the left again by hiring Bill Daley?

When word leaked yesterday that President Obama might be considering former Commerce Secretary Bill Daley as his next chief of staff, the reaction was immediate: Obama was about to start another war with his most liberal supporters.

After all, Daley, a hard-charging pro-business centrist, has a long history of clashing with those on the left. As President Clinton’s Commerce secretary, Daley earned the wrath of the labor movement by pushing for the passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) as well as trade with China. In 1999, AFL-CIO president John Sweeney declared Daley to be “squarely on the opposite side of working families.”

From 2000: Gore’s New Chairman Raises Job’s Visibility

“Organized labor and the working men and women are at the heart of this campaign because they’re the ones who will benefit as Al Gore keeps this economy strong,” Daley said on ABC’s “This Week.” He said he has spoken directly to AFL-CIO President John Sweeney and a handful of union leaders to assure them Gore will not walk away from labor’s agenda.

The comments followed expressions of dismay from key labor leaders at Gore’s choice of Daley to succeed Coelho. The union officials cited Daley’s lead role in lobbying for congressional passage of both China trade legislation this year and the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1993.

Sweeney has said those initiatives put Daley “squarely on the opposite side of working families.”

The Teamsters called Daley’s selection a “slap in the face to organized labor.”

U.S. unions have grown increasingly opposed to trade agreements, saying they threaten U.S. jobs, exploit workers in poor countries and lead to environmental degradation.

Daley on Sunday acknowledged an “honest disagreement” with organized labor over trade. He said that “open trade” would be central to Gore’s economic program but that Gore as president would ensure future trade agreements had labor and environmental components, a key issue for labor.

Hehe… get this:

Koch Industries Files Lawsuit

Koch Industries has filed suit in Utah seeking to learn who’s behind a media hoax claiming the Wichita-based company was shifting its financial commitments for climate change research and advocacy to more environmentally friendly groups.

Koch issued a statement saying it filed the federal lawsuit in response to identity theft, theft of intellectual property and impersonation that extends beyond the boundaries of free speech.

The lawsuit against unknown defendants stems from a bogus website and fake news release issued last month. The company says the web-hosting companies that registered the domain name and hosted the bogus website are located in Utah.

The companies in question say they have complied with the subpoenas.

A little background: a while back someone put up a spoof Koch website that made Koch look like it was trying to amend its ways of astroturfing anti-environmental groups.

Now, the real Koch is upset, so they’re going to sue whatever person (college student?) was behind creating the fake website.

One could, I suppose, claim that Koch is only trying to protect their trademark and name. Yet, when one realizes the extent to which the Koch brothers have used shadowy connections (astroturfing, deception) to further their own agenda, including undermining national policy on environmental issues, the stunning hypocrisy stands out.
