Kansas militia men blame Trump’s rhetoric for planned attack

See what the Left hath wrought.

[IsraelTimes] Attorneys for Kansas militia members who conspired to bomb a mosque and apartment complex housing Somali im~~migrants~~ colonists ask the court to take into account at a sentencing hearing next month what they called US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
’s rhetoric encouraging violence.

One has asked the judge to also consider the fact that all three men read and shared Russian propaganda on their Facebook feed designed to sow discord in the U.S. political system.

A federal jury convicted Patrick Stein,

...also in our archives as Patrick Eugene Stein...

Gavin Wright, and Curtis Allen

...the men formed a splinter group of sovereign citizen militia Kansas Security Force that came to be known as "the Crusaders”....

of one count of conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction

...also known as a truck bomb...

and one count of conspiracy against civil rights in April.

Apparently blowing people up for being Muslim Somalis is a violation of their civil rights. Who knew?

Wright was also found guilty of lying to the FBI. The attack, planned for the day after the 2016 general election, was thwarted by another member of the group who tipped off authorities about escalating threats of violence.

That would be Dan Day, who found the planning got a little too real for his taste.

U.S. District Judge Eric Melgren will consider at their sentencing on Nov. 19 and 20 how much time each man will spend in prison. Conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction carries a possible maximum sentence of life imprisonment, while the sentence for the civil rights violation carries no more than 10 years. The sentencing had previously been scheduled for Friday.

Prosecutors are seeking life terms for all three, while defense attorneys are variously pleading for shorter terms of 15, 10, or even time served.

The government pointed to the seriousness of the offense, which it says continues to have "a deep, lasting impact on the victims’ sense of security in their homes and at their mosque. It also wanted to ensure the men can never threaten the safety of the public again. And it argued for the need to send a strong deterrent message that violence against the government or any person will not be tolerated.

#3 You will find examples of the Shallow End of the Gene Pool™ in every race and ethnicity. My sister, who taught remedial math at a junior college, told me that some classes just had more idiots than others...luck or the draw, as it were.
