We’ve long opined that far Left moonbat hippies are mentally ill.
There’s more than a little truth to that in the case of a 23-year-old fringe leftist hippie turned would-be Muslim terrorist. This social misfit was plotting to execute people while broadcasting his acts live on the Internet, while his hippie liberal friends were saying that he understood about “non-violent protest”.
(ABC News) – The estranged son of a respected Boston police captain was arrested July 4 by FBI agents as part of a counter-terrorism operation against alleged ISIS-inspired domestic terrorists, federal officials told ABC News today.
Alexander Ciccolo, 23, of Adams, Mass., was taken into custody on gun charges after buying two pistols and two rifles from an undercover FBI confidential informant, federal officials said. In a search of his apartment, officials reported they found it loaded with possible bomb-making equipment including a pressure cooker, a variety of chemicals, an alarm clock, along with “attack planning papers” and “jihad” paperwork. FBI agents said he used the name Abu Ali al-Amriki and neighbors said he was a recent convert to Islam.
…An FBI affidavit said Ciccolo initially planned to travel to “another state” and use a pressure cooker bomb “to conduct terrorist attacks on civilians, members of the U.S. military and law enforcement personnel.” The FBI said the attack location was later changed to a town with a state university and would be concentrated on “college dorms and cafeteria, to include executions of students, which would be broadcast live via the internet.”
Ciccolo’s father is Boston police Captain Robert Ciccolo, a veteran commander assigned to Operations at Boston Police headquarters who was one of those to respond to the deadly Boston Marathon bombing in April 2013. According to the FBI, the younger Ciccolo said he was “inspired” by the Marathon bombing and the use of pressure cooker bombs, and told the FBI undercover operative, “Allahu Akbar!!! I got the pressure cooker today.”
…Law enforcement officials said Capt. Ciccolo alerted counter-terrorism authorities about a year ago that his son, with whom he had had minimal contact for several years, “was going off the deep end” and “spouting extremist jihadist sympathies.”
According to the affidavit of an FBI agent, the younger Ciccolo recently stated that he is, “not afraid to die for the cause,” and that he characterized America as ”Satan” and “disgusting.”
What a sad sack of fecal matter.
Oh yeah – his fellow moonbats had this to say:
Prior to allegedly becoming an ISIS sympathizer, Ciccolo was photographed attending an anti-nuclear “peace walk” in 2012.
Jun Yasuda, a Buddhist who walked with Ciccolo in July 2012, told ABC News Ciccolo appeared to be “concerned about peace… and understood about non-violent protest.”
“We walked together after Fukushima, and he realized that he had an open mind and that people were wonderful,” Yasuda said.
Ciccolo was concerned about peace and understood non-violent protest.
That’s why he bought two rifles and two pistols, huh?
These moonbats wouldn’t know a Muslim terrorist in their midst if he sawed their heads off with a rusty knife.
Meanwhile, carry your concealed carry piece. You never know when you’re going to run into a smelly hippie that’s decided to forgo “non-violence” and launch his own Muslim jihad against civilization.
A college dorm and cafeteria? How nice that our State chooses to make such places convenient unarmed victim zones. So much easier for would-be killers than taking on police officers!
I want to be the first to thank this guy for giving the 2nd Amendment a golden poster boy. A leftist wanna-be ISIS supporter in the US of A has openly admitted he was going to target innocents in a gun-free zone.
It doesn’t get much clearer than that.
I never did like hippies even back in the 60’s I couldn’t stand them.
Probably because I grew up as a greaser and proud of it.
Thank God for our great police, saving lives by stopping society’s rejects and lunatic 7th Century cultists from carrying out their hare-brained atrocities against innocents.
Those people – just like this a-hole – are just cowards who bully the weak to feel good about their pathetic existence.
How did he get a Sig 550?
And a select-fire one at that (unless my eyes deceive me).
The goal of the Left is destruction. Violence is one way to achieve it. Undermining society by destroying its institutions such as marriage is another. You cannot debate these people. They do not want what you have; they want you not to have it. And they are deadly serious.
By Henry Hazlitt
“The whole gospel of Karl Marx can be summed up in a single sentence: Hate the man who is better off than you are. Never under any circumstances admit that his success may be due to his own efforts, to the productive contribution he has made to the whole community. Always attribute his success to the exploitation, the cheating, the more or less open robbery of others.
Never under any circumstances admit that your own failure may be owing to your own weaknesses, or that the failure of anyone else may be due to his own defects — his laziness, incompetence, improvidence, or stupidity. Never believe in the honesty or disinterestedness of anyone who disagrees with you.
This basic hatred is the heart of Marxism. This is its animating force. You can throw away the dialectical materialism, the Hegelian framework, the technical jargon, the ‘scientific’ analysis, and millions of pretentious words, and you still have the core: the implacable hatred and envy that are the raison d’être for all the rest.”
