This is insane--I'm assuming this old nut is NUTS, but ya gotta wonder where this kind of shitty and scary attitude comes from:
http://bangornews.com/news/t/news.aspx?articleid=157032... BANGOR, Maine — A Brewer man’s alleged threats to shoot members of Bangor’s chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has scared the group into meeting in secret for the last couple of months and has caused them to cancel their Kwanzaa celebration scheduled for December.
"It has been very scary," Joseph Perry, president of Bangor’s NAACP chapter and a Searsport resident, said...The hate crimes division of the Maine Attorney General’s Office filed a civil complaint in Penobscot County Superior Court against Kendrick Sawyer, 75, of Brewer on Nov. 2, based on threats he allegedly made against the local civil rights group.
Sawyer apparently made statements to his doctor at the Togus VA Medical Center that he was "going to shoot any and all black persons that he saw attending a meeting of the NAACP at a church in Bangor," the court document states. He made similar statements to a Department of Veterans Affairs police officer, who described the encounter with Sawyer as "chilling."
Sawyer said in the court document that he did not like blacks and Hispanics and that "Maine should be a ‘white’ state." He also said he owned a .45-caliber handgun, which later was removed from his home by Brewer police Capt. Jason Moffitt and an agent from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Assistant Attorney General Thomas Harnett said Tuesday that the Attorney General’s Office did know Sawyer’s location, but did not release his whereabouts, and added that the suspect had acquired an attorney to represent him..."We’re trying to take steps to make sure that the NAACP, its members and supporters and all people of color feel safe, and our goal is to achieve that through an injunction," he said....It’s not clear whether criminal charges will be brought against Sawyer since that would have to be done by Kennebec County officials because he made the threats in Augusta, Harnett said.
This crazy old sumbitch needs to be locked up, and medicated...and soon.
