Man held in Obama 'Antichrist' threat

HONOLULU, Dec. 10 (UPI) -- Federal prosecutors say they are holding a Hawaiian man who allegedly threatened to attack Barrack Obama to prove the new U.S. president is the Antichrist.

According to a Secret Service affidavit, Mark Miyashiro told his psychiatrist that he wanted to test his theory by killing Obama and then seeing if he rose from the dead.

KITV-TV, Honolulu, said Wednesday that Miyashiro, 56, allegedly told the doctor he would carry out the attack with a slingshot and a marble; however, when agents checked his apartment they found a significantly more dangerous Russian assault rifle with a reference to the Bible passage Luke 11:21 carved into the stock.

Luke 11:21 reads, "When a stray man, fully armed, guards his own mansion, his property is safe."

The affidavit, which was presented at a court hearing in Honolulu Tuesday, said Miyashiro didn't recant statements about his alleged plot when agents confronted him.

KITV said Miyashiro's neighbors in Kaneohe described him as volatile and somewhat scary.

wow....some sure crazies out there

has there been any other stories with former presidents that has antichrist plots against them?

I think we are going to be seeing so many more of these nutjobs coming out of the woodwork in the near future. I really hope no one is successful in killing the guy.

If the guy understood who the antichrist is he'd know that attacking _______ (insert alleged antichrist's name here) would do no good because it is not yet his time to be taken down. (and GOD is the one who will do it) That won't happen until after the tribulations etc etc

I've seen this passage (Luke 11:21 - When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace

used frequently to justify shooting intruders in your home.

It's quite funny, considering that the next verse says: "But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils."

Kudos to the folks who caught this idiot. Sounds like he was so stupid he might have shot Bush instead, and then there'd be no resurrection 3 days later.
