Texas man has huge cache of cyanide (homegrown terrorist)

http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/metropolitan/2546438

An East Texas man who had accumulated a massive amount of cyanide was described as a white supremacist and a student of militia-led revolt.

William Krar is scheduled to be sentenced in a federal court Tuesday after acknowledging that he possessed enough sodium cyanide to fatally gas everyone in a 30,000-square-foot building, such as a civic center or high school basketball arena. But investigators say they still don't know what Krar intended to do with the deadly materials.

Krar, 63, pleaded guilty to one count of possessing a dangerous chemical weapon in November. He faces up to life in prison, but officials have said that he's expected to get less than 20 years under federal sentencing guidelines.

Law officers said Krar was a supplier of explosives, dangerous chemicals and high-powered guns.

Both McVeigh and Krar had in their possessions at the time of their arrests "The Turner Diaries" and "Hunter," two novels promoting racism, hate and reasons to attack the government.

6. This guy had more poisonous gas than Saddam had
Edited on Tue May-04-04 12:09 PM by Bandit
Notice how nonchalantly the US is treating this WMD find. If they had found even half this much stuff in Iraq it would be on the news for weeks and deemed a vindication of our invasion. This guy has to be a right-wing nut or it would be on every station non-stop 24/7. :shrug: I guess WMDs aren't really such a big deal afterall.
