How dumb is this? Two kids with a screwed up belief system get some guns, get a plan to get more guns and have a wild fantasy about killing blacks before assassinating Barack Obama.
No, really, how dumb is this? Well, I'd say it's this dumb - they're going to federal prison for so long they won't remember what the sun looks like. How about this - they won't even remember how many copies of "American History X" they own.
These guys have truly redefined stupidity. Look, I can understand that different people have various beliefs and morals. Some of them are deemed detestable by society (cannibalism, white supremacy, fans of "The Real World"), so if you have them, you'd best keep your mouth shut.
What you don't do is come up with an idea an 8-year-old could poke holes through given five minutes of thought. "Um, won't going on a multi-state killing spree clue people into your whereabouts and lead police to you?"
Then again, perhaps we want our criminals stupid, so we can catch them easier. Smart criminals lead to longer crime sprees. These guys couldn't even get out of the starting gate.
Regardless of your political beliefs, that's a good thing.
