An Ex-Marine, who planned a racist mass shooting to kill white people, targeted a gun-free zone

May 15, 2024 | Gun Free Zones, Mass Public Shootings

Strangely, it was very difficult to find a picture of Joshua Cobb, the ex-Marine who made this threat, in any news story outside of the local media market.

“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,” the post continued.

Lawrence Richard, “New Jersey Marine arrested after alledgedly making threats to kill White people, ‘began planning’ mass shooting,” Fox News May 14, 2024.

Yet another attacker who focused on killing people in a gun-free zone.

This appears to be similar to the 2016 Dallas shooting of white police officers. But the media focuses on attacks by white supremacists, which fortunately are rarer than the media would like people to believe.

    I thought I’d heard that the Aurora, Colorado shooter passed theatres WITHOUT” no gun” signs to one with such a sign to ensure there would be no armed person to fight him. Please inform as to whether this is true or not.

    I’ve had it up to here with the poor grammar of mass attackers. Have began? A exact? More importantly, this screw-up of an ex-Marine seems to have had poor firearm training (like most zombie mass attackers), or was a poor student, and expects to “spray” victims to the ground when shot placement is always key, even with machine guns. Sight alignment, sight picture, trigger control. One or two CCW’s with a modicum of training would quickly dispatch a “threat” like this ex-Marine.

Gun control advocates have condemned the Justice Department’s decision to stop criminally enforcing the nearly 60-year-old federal ban on licensed dealers selling handguns to law-abiding 18-, 19-, and 20-year-olds. Saying it will cause the loss of life. “That’s...
