Klansman Accused of Building Pipe Bombs

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. -- A Ku Klux Klansman helped build seven pipe bombs that a federal informant told him would be rigged to vehicles used by Haitians and Hispanics, a federal agent testified Friday at a detention hearing.

Videotapes of meetings between the informant and Daniel Schertz, 27, showed them making the bombs and discussing how they would be used, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agent Lorin Coppock testified.

Schertz also "offered on numerous occasions" to participate in bombings that were concocted as part of the investigation, the agent said.

In a six-count indictment unsealed Friday, Schertz is accused of teaching and demonstrating how to make and use a bomb to further a violent crime, making such devices and possessing a pistol with armor-piercing bullets.

Looks like they will try to run off, if confronted!

2. Good thing he's not a terrorist
Just a regular fella who makes bombs, which is a right given to us by the Lord Jesus, the better to smite dirty furriners, amen.

4. Further proof that the "War on Terror" is nothing but a massive lynching,
proving to the world, albeit implicitly, White Supremacy.

6. Who wants to bet that Bill Frist is the idol of Daniel Schertz?
And I bet he has a photo of Little Boots on his wall.
