Alabama Militia Planned Violent Attacks on Mexicans

10:00 H | Topics: Alabama - Immigration - Justice

alabama%20militia.jpgLast week six men were arrested accused of being part of the Alabama Free Militia plotting a machine-gun attack on Mexicans. During the arrests federal police recovered truckloads of explosives and weapons, including 130 grenades, an improvised rocket launcher and 2,500 rounds of ammunition. Yesterday five of those arrested were denied bail and the sixth man was granted a $10,000 bond. The charges? No, not terrorism but a pretty weak charge of conspiracy to make a firearm, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

Now how much you wanna bet if the arrestees were Mexicans the charges would be a little different.
