Neo-Nazi accused of peddling machine guns was feared by some

Health inspectors once asked for police escort on housing search People in Seattle's Roosevelt neighborhood were so afraid of Neo-Nazi Keith Gilbert that even Health Department inspectors got search warrants and brought along a small army of police officers several years ago just to look for rats. Gilbert -- a veteran white supremacist who once bragged about plotting to blow up the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. with 1,400 pounds of TNT -- was arrested Tuesday by federal agents who say he was peddling machine guns. Agents removed about 100 firearms from his home, one of many dilapidated homes that Gilbert managed for Seattle landlord Hugh Sisley. Some have accused Gilbert of managing them through fear, intimidation and frivolous lawsuits.
