THIBODAUX — A former Nicholls State University student was arrested by federal agents in Mississippi in connection with threatening electronic messages sent to students at Nicholls and other schools through a popular networking Web site.
Dyron Hart, 19, of Poplarville, Miss., who was arrested Wednesday, allegedly told investigators he wanted to create a “reaction” when he sent Facebook “friends” across three states a message stating he planned to kill 3,000 people, including them, in the wake of Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential victory Nov. 4.
The messages were sent early Nov. 5.
The message recipients, like Hart, are black. But authorities said he gave the impression in the messages, sent under another name, that he was white.
School officials said Hart practiced with the Nicholls football team for about two weeks in April, but never earned a spot on the team because he failed to meet NCAA standards.
He did not return to school after the spring semester.
An FBI news release said Hart, if convicted, would face a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.
Repeatedly using an obscenity and the N-word, the author of the message threatens to kill more than 3,000 black people in a month because of Obama’s election and warns the recipient of a pending attack from “a random white man,” according to the agent’s affidavit.
He was booked at the Stone County jail in Wiggins, Miss., and was transferred elsewhere by U.S. marshals Thursday.
I imagine this is one of many incidents like this, only this time, someone was actually caught.

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
