Cobb, in better days.
Cobb, in better days.

Craig Cobb, of Leith, North Dakota fame, has finished his jail sentence for carrying a gun on a road, but his troubles are not over.

He is being banned from Missouri, where his old mother lives, the state saying he should not have any basic human rights because of his politically incorrect views.

Cobb, 62, is serving four years’ probation after accepting a plea deal that avoided trial and possible prison time and is living in Bismarck. He had applied to move to Missouri to care for his aging mother.

Parole officials in that state denied Cobb’s application for an inter-state compact Thursday, saying he’d had little to no contact with his mother for the past 40 years.

On a white supremacist website, Cobb wrote, “So now the state prevents that (contact) to the end.” He said Missouri’s refusal means he may never see his 90-year-old mother again, or only for brief allowed visits, even though he’s not a rapist, carjacker or bank robber.

He also said he’s spent a lot of money since being released from jail and is literally going blind for lack of cataract surgery. He said officials here and in Missouri know about his condition. “This is part of their torture,” he wrote.

Tim Tausend, spokesman for North Dakota Parole and Probation Division, said Cobb has not made any formal application to have his probation supervised by any other state.

He said Cobb is living in temporary housing in Bismarck and has traveled within “a very small” circle in the Bismarck area since his release in late April. Cobb is wearing a global positioning system device and the department is able to track his whereabouts.

Tausend said the department is not releasing Cobb’s address to protect both the public and Cobb.

“His case has provided a lot of attention and we do not want to inflame that,” Tausend said.

I took issue with some of Cobb’s behavior, but this is disgusting no matter how you look at it. What he did was a very minor crime, and banning him from visiting his very old mother is clearly part of an ongoing politically motivated crucifixion.

Craig Cobb Released From Jail and Retiring From White Nationalism https://www.anglinarchive.com/2014/05/07/craig-cobb-released-from-jail-and-retiring-from-white-nationalism/ Wed, 07 May 2014 00:00:00 +0000 Andrew Anglin

Craig Cobb, out on parole.
Craig Cobb, out on parole.

Well, Craig Cobb is out, after having pleaded guilty to terrorizing the people of Leith, North Dakota.

According to the media, he has stated that he now plans to “retire” from the White Nationalist movement.

After 167 days in jail, he was sentenced to four years of supervised probation, and no additional jail time.  The people of Leith think he should have stayed in longer.  But come on, all the guy did was walk around town with a gun.

Though he really did make a bad impression.

From Inforum:

“I regret my actions. I know I was wrong, and I accept responsibility for my actions. It was an unfortunate confluence of circumstances and bad decisions on my part,” Cobb said in court in Bismarck.

Leith Mayor Ryan Schock said he wanted Cobb to serve at least four years in prison, which he said would have made it more difficult for Cobb to contact his “cronies” who have made threats toward Leith, a town of about 20 people southwest of Bismarck.

“The only sense of closure I got out of it is that it’s over today, but on the other hand, it’s really not over,” he said. “Because when will it be over, you know? When are we going to know that we’re safe back in our homes back in town? Are we ever going to be safe again?”

Cobb has sat in the Mercer County Jail in Stanton since he and follower Kynan Dutton were arrested Nov. 16 and charged with seven counts of felony terrorizing in connection with four incidents in Leith that included approaching residents while on an armed patrol of Cobb’s property. One of the charges was later dismissed.

Under the plea agreement, Cobb must refrain from alcohol and have no contact with the victims while on probation, including indirect contact via the Internet. He’s prohibited from possessing firearms while on probation and for the rest of his life under federal law, and his long guns he carried in Leith will be forfeited to the Grant County Sheriff’s Office.

Schock said his biggest question is where Cobb is going to go. Cobb said he plans to apply to serve out his probation in Missouri so he can take care of his mother, but Missouri must agree to take him.

“So do we get to stay up for the next month 24/7 because him or his cronies are going to swing by or what? It’d be nice to know,” Schock said, adding, “I can’t imagine another state wanting to take this guy.”

Grant County State’s Attorney Todd Schwarz said he didn’t know Cobb’s immediate plans but noted Cobb will be on GPS monitoring.

“So if all of a sudden he’s within 500 yards of Leith, he’ll be back in jail immediately,” he said.

Schwarz said Cobb’s victims can contact the state Division of Parole and Probation if they want to know his whereabouts.

Cobb entered guilty pleas Feb. 27 to one charge of felony terrorizing and five counts of misdemeanor menacing, but Reich said he wanted more information before accepting the plea agreement and ordered a pre-sentence investigation, including a psychological evaluation.

Reich said Tuesday he had reviewed the report and the objections raised about it – Schwarz and Cobb both said it contained errors – as well as victim impact statements and a number of unsolicited letters and emails. Reich said a majority of the impact statements favored the plea agreement, though he noted it wasn’t unanimous.

Lee Cook, a Leith City Council member and one of Cobb’s two victims who opposed the plea deal and wanted Cobb brought to trial, called the sentence “a failure of justice.”

“I mean, this guy got off. He made our lives living hell, me and my family, his family,” he said, motioning toward Schock. “And now he’s walking the streets again.”

…

While Cobb no longer owns property in Leith – he sold his house in February and then deeded his remaining lots back to the city – Schock and Cook noted Tuesday that the lots Cobb deeded to white supremacist Alex Linder, former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard Tom Metzger and National Socialist Movement Commander Jeff Schoep remain under their ownership.

“Where does that leave us?” Cook said.

Metzger said by email Tuesday that he intends to keep his lot and has no specific plans for it at this time.

Schoep said in a phone interview Tuesday that he isn’t sure what he’ll do with his Leith property, an old creamery building next to Cobb’s former house. He said he wanted to talk to Cobb first.

“I don’t want to hurt his chances of transferring probation (to Missouri) or anything like that,” said Schoep, who called the case “a political witch hunt.”

Cobb told Forum News Service in an April 14 interview from jail, “I want to retire from white nationalism because I’ve had it.”

This entire thing was a debacle, almost from the get-go.

The best thing we can do is learn from it.

Better days.
Better days.

I admire what Craig tried to do, and I think it is still a very good idea, but the way he went about it – drinking too much and putting himself at odds with the locals by insulting them and brandishing firearms – was exactly the wrong way to do it.

Our image should be one of normal people, who have figured something out which is very important.  This should not only be our image – it should be exactly what and who we are.

There is no need to be weird.  Staying normal is half the battle.

Trailer Released for Craig Cobb Documentary https://www.anglinarchive.com/2014/02/13/trailer-released-for-craig-cobb-documentary/ Thu, 13 Feb 2014 00:00:00 +0000 Andrew Anglin

Though I have no issue with this image, personally, it is clear that this is not the public face we need.
Though I have no issue with this image, personally, it is clear that this is not the public face we need.

The whole Leith situation got so very messy, did it not?

Though I hate to say it, as I surely supported Cobb to begin with, this whole thing can now be viewed as exactly what you don’t want to do.

Cobb could have moved into the town and acted normal, got people there on his side. Instead he came in like a hurricane and started putting up swastikas and verbally attacking people.

Someone who was there for these events is in the process of putting together a film on them.

This documentary, while obviously taking a liberal approach, seems to be justified, in that the people really did not want him there, and all he did was create a ruckus.

Here is the description of the film, entitled Leith, N.D.:

Leith, North Dakota is a registered ghost town of 16-24 people. Its inhabitants are mostly farmers or ranchers, with land passed down generation to generation. The town has an apocalyptic beauty set against a prairie backdrop of wide-open sky and fields of wheat.

In May of 2012, an outsider named Craig Cobb moved in and started buying up property. He accumulated twelve plots of land, some empty, some with houses in various states of disrepair. People figured he’d moved in to be close to the Bakken oil fields some 70 miles north. Turns out he was a notorious white separatist who was plotting a takeover of the city government. Shortly after his plans were unveiled, a family of fellow white separatists moved in to start fixing up his properties.

Leith, N.D. is a short film offering a glimpse into a town struggling for sovereignty against one man’s extremist vision. Filmed in the days leading up to Cobb’s arrest for terrorizing the townspeople on an armed patrol, Leith, N.D. is an eerie document of American DIY ideals played out in one of the most under populated states in the nation.

I don’t want to attack Cobb. He, apparently, did things the way he thought they should have been done. But we need to think long and hard about how this turned out, and realize that if we want the people for us, we must be for the people.

Our ideology is one which could be very popular. But it must be normal. I don’t want to attack people, nor do I want to have drunks yelling things at them. I don’t want to make Americans feel uncomfortable. Our goal should be to replace the Republican Party as the voice of White America. Not to make everyone hate us.

Craig Cobb Charged with Felony ‘Terrorizing’ for Holding a Gun https://www.anglinarchive.com/2013/11/19/craig-cobb-charged-with-felony-terrorizing-for-holding-a-gun/ Tue, 19 Nov 2013 00:00:00 +0000 Andrew Anglin

Craig Cobb on patrol.
Craig Cobb on patrol.

Craig Cobb is very good at making headlines.  Last week, the whole world saw him on YouTube after a black British talk show viciously accused him of being 14% sub-Saharan African.  This week, he has been arrested for walking around Leith, North Dakota with his sidekick, brandishing firearms.  He has been charged with ‘felony terrorizing,’ with citizens of the town claiming the two men were stalking them.

Cobb has been attempting to establish an all-White enclave in Leith, and says that other people in the town were threatening him, so he decided to walk around holding a gun to demonstrate that he would not be cowed.  In hindsight, surely there were more prudent ways he could have shown his resolve.

I have to say that though I have been very supportive of Craig ever since he went public with the Leith plan, and do like the guy, this is a little bit frustrating.  There is no way he didn’t know that he was going to get arrested for this, and though he might be clever enough to get the charges dropped, it is yet more bad publicity for the cause of White liberation in North America.

Craig Cobb getting handcuffed.
Craig Cobb getting handcuffed.

I can understand the desire for showing strength, and I don’t fault him for displaying a gun, if he indeed felt threatened, but he could have, say, sat on his porch with it.  Doing a patrol of the town, especially with Kynan Dutton, who was recently arrested for drunken disorderly and out on bond, after a ridiculous outburst at a Leith town hall meeting (the intensely embarassing video of which is on YouTube), was reckless and irresponsible.

I hope Craig gets out soon, and I do wish him the best in his endeavor in Leith, but I also hope that he will, in the future, think his actions through a little bit better.  Allowing himself to fit perfectly into the media-formulated role of villainous White Supremacist is not a good propaganda strategy.  A lot of Americans would be very sympathetic to his ideas and his plan if it was simply executed in a slightly different manner.

I think that with the publicity he presently has, he shouldn’t have a problem turning this around, and making it into something more positive.  He is a charismatic guy, and does very well in the interviews he gets with the mainstream media.  He just needs to make a conscious effort to control the narrative being presented, rather than falling into the trap of playing out the pre-determined narrative of the Jew media.

Non-White Liberal Science Blogger Says Craig Cobb DNA Results are a Hoax https://www.anglinarchive.com/2013/11/14/non-white-liberal-science-blogger-says-craig-cobb-dna-results-are-a-hoax/ Thu, 14 Nov 2013 00:00:00 +0000 Andrew Anglin

No, Craig Cobb is not a secret negro.
No, Craig Cobb is not a secret negro.  That’s stupid.

This Craig Cobb scene on the black talk show has gone viral on the internet, and it is horrible.  I am personally a little bit upset that Craig submitted himself to this, without sensing a trap.  Though I don’t feel I am in a position to be overly critical of a man who has done so much, this was objectively a mistake, and one that our movement is now paying for.

It is, however, an obvious scam, and I believe that anyone with any sense can see this.  The problem is that this has become a meme, and even after Craig gets the real tests done, and presents the results, and proves that these blacks and their Jew handlers staged this whole thing as part of a defamation campaign against Cobb and the White race as a whole, the damage will already have been done.

My hope is that Cobb will be able to successfully sue the show for defamation, but the amount of money that would cost almost certainly makes it impossible, even though he could almost certainly win.

A liberal, non-White science blogger, Razib Khan, offers us some insight into this situation.

I’ll be honest and admit that I don’t think that these results will hold up. (though personally I would think it was rich and very funny if they did, just like everyone else).

Hidden African Ancestry
Hidden African Ancestry

The reason is the chart to the left. It’s from 23andMe‘s data set. Out of their ~100,000 white American individuals tested, ~5% have any evidence of African ancestry. Of those, you see the distribution of results. If Craig Cobb, the white supremacist, is ~14% Sub-Saharan African, he’s in the less than 0.1% of white Americans with this sort of pattern. If he was a Latin American white, or a identified white person of Arab ancestry, I’d be willing to accept the results as plausible on the face of it. But the reality is that European Americans with relatively well documented histories usually do not have a high probability of having African ancestry. And if they do, 14% is a great deal. I have seen this among my friends (or more honestly, 5-10%, which is not far off), but that was due to a cryptic (though somewhat known within the family) non-paternity event.

The media isn’t consistent about which firm tested Craig Cobb, so I’m not going to make accusations specifically, but he says he’s getting other tests done, and he’ll release the results. I’ll be curious to see the raw results. To me this is reminiscent of the constant Facebook shares I get from the Daily Currant from friends who confuse satire for reality because of their biases (not to say those biases are unfounded or not).

Black Accuses Craig Cobb of Being 14% Black https://www.anglinarchive.com/2013/11/12/black-accuses-craig-cobb-of-being-14-black/ Tue, 12 Nov 2013 00:00:00 +0000 Andrew Anglin

The black British talk show host, Trisha something or other, has accused Craig Cobb of being 14% black, based on a voodoo science DNA test.

People commenting on this do not seem to understand that DNA tests are not actually accurate, as all they do is trace similarities in the genetic make-ups of living people. The data, as it presently stands, is impossible to interpret with 100% accuracy.

For Cobb to be 14% black, one of his great grandparents would have to be black, which would mean one of his grandparents would have been half, which would mean he would obviously know.

Craig can, I am quite sure, submit his swab to other companies, and get different results. Likely, he already had, which is why he agreed to do it for this weird spectacle television program in the first place.

The guy clearly is not black.

Indians Protest Craig Cobb and Expose the Idiocy of the Anti-White Narrative https://www.anglinarchive.com/2013/09/25/indians-protest-craig-cobb-and-expose-the-idiocy-of-the-anti-white-narrative/ Wed, 25 Sep 2013 00:00:00 +0000 Andrew Anglin

Indian Protesting Craig Cobb
This American Indian woman traveled from her reservation to protest the right of a racial group to have an exclusive geographical territory.

On Sunday, about three hundred people gathered to protest Craig Cobb’s attempt to create an exclusive White community in the village of Leith, North Dakota. Approximately two-thirds of these protestors were American Indians, who had driven from the reservation to take part in the protest.

Just let that sink in for a second. These people drove from their reservation, where they live in a racially segregated and sovereign geographical territory, to protest the idea of someone else trying to do the same thing. And the media covered the story without even bothering to bring up this point.

This situation, more so than any in recent memory, demonstrates just how idiotic the anti-White narrative has become.

Imagine these Indians, who are in no way affected by the existence or non-existence of an exclusively White community in this small town, driving out to protest it. They must have all been drunk. These are people who have fed off of us for more than a hundred years – the White man feeds, clothes and houses the whole lot of these people.

A Modest Proposal

All that Craig Cobb is trying to do is create a place for Whites to exist away from the hordes of non-Whites. He is not attempting to infringe on anyone’s rights. He picked a place where there are virtually no people – Leith has a population of 24.

The Jewish media is in the process of giving the game away, as they attempt to demonize Cobb and his associates as a hateful monsters, simply for asserting their basic human right of free association.

I have not read a mainstream news article about Cobb’s plan that did not include the term “White Supremacist”; the term, by definition, implies both a perception of the White race as superior, as well as a desire to rule over other races.

I have written about the media’s use of this ridiculous term before. From that essay:

Surely I, as well as all others in the White nationalist movement, do indeed favor our own people over other races, but this in no way translates into a desire to rule over, control, or otherwise shape the destiny of other racial groups. In fact, though it is possible that they exist, I have never in my life come in contact with a White man who believes that Whites have a right to rule over any other people. White Nationalists are, by definition, separatists, and thus have no interest in even coming in contact with any significant numbers of people of other races, let alone an interest in going into other people’s societies and trying to control them.

All that Cobb is proposing is that Whites have a right to live away from other people. Any reasonable person can see that this is not unreasonable. Because it is so obviously reasonable, the media is having a fit trying to make it seem as though it isn’t; in doing so, they are exposing their agenda against our people.

Return of the Great White Race

The thing that the Jews fear most is a clearly formulated White racial consciousness, as if this exists, as it did in National Socialist Germany, they are seen as the alien that they are, and no longer capable of living as a parasite on our society.

We have been so brainwashed that merely discussing race is seen as taboo, and so it is going to take quite a bit of work to establish a new narrative in the minds of the masses of our people. What Cobb is doing is a grand step in the right direction.

Even the masses can see that simply asking for the right to live alone in the middle of nowhere in North Dakota is not particularly extreme or outrageous. When they are able to see that, they are then, hopefully, able to see that the media’s response to him is indeed both extreme and outrageous. This, we can hope, is going to lead to a conversation about what exactly is going on in a society where the local population is being bullied by its own establishment into integrating itself with predatory and parasitical strangers.

The National Socialist Movement Joins Craig Cobb in Leith, North Dakota https://www.anglinarchive.com/2013/09/24/the-national-socialist-movement-joins-craig-cobb-in-leith-north-dakota/ Tue, 24 Sep 2013 00:00:00 +0000 KXNET

KXNet – Bismarck/Minot/Williston/Dickinson

Members of the National Socialist Movement — and their protesters — take over the tiny town of Leith.

The National Socialist Movement joins infamous Leith resident, Craig Cobb, to scope out property and clarify — in town hall fashion — their intentions. They say they’re not white supremacists. Rather, they call themselves white civil rights activists. Hundreds of protesters, however, disagree.

“The people of Leith do not want you here.” Protesters from around the state speak out, but representatives of the National Socialist Movement are not deterred. They say Leith resident, Craig Cobb, has a right to stay despite protests against his pro-white message. “The National Socialist Movement is a white civil rights organization. We represent the interests of white people. The blacks have the NAACP to represent black interests. You have La Raza representing Mexican interests. All the different racial groups have their own,” says Jeff Schoep, Commander, National Socialist Movement. When asked for the definition of “white,” he says it means “pure white” — “of European descent.”

Commander” Schoep as he’s known in the National Socialist Movement, insists theirs is a non-violent organization to promote the interests of white people. Not everyone is hearing it. “As humans, they can be wherever they want to be, but they’re representing hate, and I have bi-racial babies and they’re hating what I brought out of love, and ya know, love has no color,” says protestor Christine Yellowbird.

The National Socialist Movement says they intend to assume legal control of the local government, but insist they don’t want to exile anyone. “We do want to bring people in, but our idea is not to throw anybody out. You can’t do that in America,” says Schoep.
