The FBI has arrested an African-American male who posed as a white man intending to kill black people because Barack Obama was elected President of the United States.
19-year old Dyron Hart made the death threats against three black students at Nicholls State University Thibodaux, Louisiana via the popular social networking website Facebook. Under the pseudonym Colton Brodoux, Hart threatened to kill more than 3,000 black people in a month because of Obama’s election and warned his victims of a pending attack from “a random white man.” The messages were also laden with racial epithets.
Hart told an FBI agent that he sent the messages to “get a reaction,” according to the agent’s sworn statement. Hart also admitted sending the message to students at other institutions, including LSU, the University of Mississippi and the University of Alabama.
If convicted, Hart would face a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.

LOL! This is like that Chapple bit where he plays the blind Klansman, right?
But seriously, it seems that the FBI investigated this thinking it was a white man threatening blacks, and then stumbled over the fact that it was really a black man making them.
I wonder if the FBI would have investigated this at all if it were a black man making death threats against whites….
This guy deserves to be thrown in prison ….. and watch him decay. Embarassing and a very stupid prank to make, esp. in those sensitive times.
He should have instead discussed more educational, fruitful topics about how to mend relationship between people of various colors, not only blacks & white, but hispanics, asians, native Americans etc.
BUT, I GUESS AN IDIOT SHOULD BE BEHIND BARS …… AND THROW THE KEY.
There is a new prejudice. It is called "Pin the tail on the other" and is a disguise for blatant hatred. Blacks and whites masquerade as members of the other race and post extremely volatile messages and threats in the name of the other race, to provoke ill feelings between the two.
Therefore, there should be a new set of "hate" laws which specifically target acts done under this guise.
