Nazi Gets Seven Years In Anti-LGBTQ Mass Murder Plot

The Detroit News reports:

A Michigan man with a fixation on mass murderers was sentenced Thursday to seven years in prison after federal authorities said he compiled an arsenal of weapons and planned his own hate-fueled attack on a political party headquarters and bar.

Mack Davis, 23, of Owosso had pleaded guilty in December to committing a hate crime by attempting to carry out a mass killing, according to a DOJ press release. Since at least July 2023, Davis had been using the internet to research, post about and pay tribute to mass killers, the DOJ said. He also wrote about killers in journals and on other items in his home.

Also around that time, he began to plot his own mass killing, including creating detailed lists of weapons and tactical gear he owned or intended to acquire. By June 2024, he had amassed an arsenal that included two firearms, magazines, hundreds of rounds of ammunition, a crossbow and arrows, bomb-making materials, smoke grenades, tactical gear and knives, authorities said.

He drafted a list of weapons and tactical gear for his plan, and his writings show that he surveilled churches, synagogues, mosques, schools, hospitals, and supermarkets, according to federal authorities. Davis wrote about his “hate for this world and for the people in it, all people,” saying, “I hate you all the same,” officials said. He posted pictures of himself making a Nazi salute and holding a copy of Adolf Hitler’s antisemitic manifesto.

Officials said Davis focused on attacking two locations that were close to each other: a political party’s county headquarters and a bar. He targeted those places because he believed they would contain members of the LGBTQ+ community, police said. He planned to “fire on anyone and anything” near those spots, federal officials said. Davis test-fired about 60 bullets into his neighbors’ cars — one of which he had previously vandalized with an anti-gay slur, police said.

From the DOJ’s 2024 press release:

According to court documents, from at least July 2023 through June 2024, Davis accessed search engines and social media sites to research, post about, and pay tribute to mass killers, and wrote about dozens of mass killers in journals and on other items in his home.

During that period, Davis also began to plot his own mass killing, by, among other things, drafting lists of weapons and tactical gear he owned and intended to acquire for use in his mass killing.

By June, Davis had crossed off every item on the list of weapons and tactical gear he intended to acquire, and had amassed an arsenal that included two firearms, magazines, hundreds of rounds of ammunition, a crossbow and arrows, assorted bomb-making parts, smoke grenades, tactical gear and clothing and several knives. Davis inscribed one of the knives with the anti-gay slur, “FAGGOT Killer.”

From April through June, Davis solidified his plan to commit the mass killing. Among other acts, Davis posted on a social media site that he intended to commit a mass killing at a political party headquarters, which Davis referred to as “Location 1,” that Davis wrote was “filled with far-left liberal, faggot scum.”

Davis wrote that he would continue the mass killing at “Location 2,” a nearby bar that Davis wrote was “a faggot bar.” Davis researched both locations online, conducted physical surveillance of both locations and posted about his research and surveillance on the social media site.

During that period, Davis also vandalized two cars that belonged to his neighbors, whom he knew to be gay, by spray-painting the word “fag” on one of the cars.
