Ex Marine Arrested For Planning Murder Spree in ‘Gun-Free’ Zones ‘In the White Community’
The former Marine write that he wanted to create “mayhem” in the white community close to an “important holiday to their race.” It seems he was a particularly thoughtful lunatic. And while the mainstream media have reported the story, few have keyed in on Cobb’s intent to specifically target gun-free venues.
Here’s an example of Cobb’s writings, from the US Attorney’s press release:
I want to cause mayhem on the white community. The reason i specifically want to target white people is because as a black male, they will NEVER understand my struggles. Same way I will never understand their struggles, but I don’t care to. I want to erase them. All of them really, but in this case as many as I possibly can. As of today I have officially began planning my attack. It is going to take place in 2023 in the state of New Jersey, I have not chosen a exact date but I am going to be sure it is close to an important holiday to their race. I have a location in mind already which I have frequented for the past year and I am certain nobody there is armed to be able to stop me from spraying them to the ground. I have already acquired 2 of the 4 firearms I plan to use for my attack, and I also know my entry and exit points already after the mayhem.
Obviously the prospect of confronting good guys with guns played heavily on this guy’s mind. Because cowards like Cobb never want a fair fight. Particularly with someone who can counter with a proven fight-stopper known as a gun.
From CBS Austin:
A New Jersey man, who was formerly a U.S. Marine, was arrested and charged Friday with threatening to kill White people for their perceived privilege.
Joshua Cobb told the FBI at a California base he wanted to shoot up a New Jersey gym, grocery store or wealthy White area, according to a press release. He allegedly cited a desire for the world to “feel” what he was feeling.
“Most people who are on the wealthier end spectrum, they don’t understand the spectrum, they’re not living, they don’t know what it’s like to be in a bad spot,” Cobb said, according to the FBI. “I’m sure they have their own version of a bad spot, but it ain’t nothing like someone from the other side’s bad spot. So my thing was to like bring the pain to them.”
There’s a lot more information available if you read the US Attorney’s entire press release and their criminal complaint.
A Mercer County, New Jersey, man was arrested Friday night for transmitting via the internet a post containing threats to kill white people, U.S. Attorney Philip R. Sellinger announced today.
Joshua Cobb, 23, of Trenton, New Jersey, was arrested and charged by complaint with one count of transmitting a threat in interstate and foreign commerce. He is scheduled to appear this afternoon before U.S. Magistrate Judge Rukhsanah Singh in Trenton federal court.
