Salon.com reveals William Kostric to be a right wing nut job

Joan Walsh of Salon.com writes that at least one of his William Kostric's statements to Chris Matthews doesn't seem to be true. A right-wing activist named "William Kostric,"  is listed as a "team member" of the Arizona chapter of We the People, the far-right group best known for joining a Birther lawsuit.


Kostric told MSNBC he recently moved from Arizona to New Hampshire.
On his MySpace page (h/t Lavender Newswire), Kostric also lists as one of his heroes, Robert Schultz, the anti-tax activist and We the People founder who spent a lot of his own money on ads promoting the Birther movement.

Kostric's MySpace profile also lists among his heroes Randy Weaver, the white supremacist and right-wing activist who survived the Ruby Ridge confrontation.

The profile also includes, as one of Kostric's "Top 12 friends," the Free State Movement, a group organizing libertarians to move to New Hampshire and expand on the state's "Live Free or Die" credo, and ultimately secede from the union.

A "William Kostric" also signed two pledgesat PledgeBank, a site that lets people organize around various causes. Kostric's two pledges include: "move to New Hampshire by 12/31/2008 where I will work to bring about a society in which government’s maximum role is protecting life, liberty, and property."

There's no overt reason to conclude from his Web presence that Kostric is violent, although on the Web site of Reason,the libertarian magazine, someone posting under his name defends drug dealers who kill police officers . . .

"If people can't wake up and see why it's immoral to trespass and destroy someones property, kidnap and lock them in a cage for growing a plant in their backyard then perhaps a body count is what's required for change.

If Kostric really believes "perhaps a body count is what's required for change" in the case of cops moving against drug dealers, it would be interesting to know what other causes he thinks a "body count" might hasten along.
