What the hell is wrong with people?
FBI: Racist threats over computer sent by black man posing as white

03:36 PM CST on Friday, November 14, 2008

A black man from Mississippi has been arrested and accused of sending racist death threats over the Internet to three black students at Louisiana's Nicholls State University.


The FBI in New Orleans said Dyron Hart, 19, was arrested Wednesday. He is accused of sending the messages by way of the students' Facebook accounts. The messages contained racial epithets and death threats and were sent to two black women and a black man at Nicholls State in Thibodaux, La.


The author of those messages cast himself as a white man who intended to kill blacks because Barack Obama was elected president.


Hart told an FBI agent that he sent the messages

1. Dayum.
That is what I would call some serious self-loathing behavior.

6. Remember, we've just been through a nazi-like administration...
You gotta allow for a certain percentage of people to have gone totally off the deep end.

8. That's a hard way to learn that the worst of Jim Crow is dead most places.
At one time, he could probably count on law enforcement in some places not giving a shit. It's small solace to see that's not as true as it once was.

9. Now he just needs to carve a backwards B on his cheek.
He and Ashley Todd would make a good couple.
