54 White Supremacists Charged with Multiple Acts of Violence

Tuesday, February 12, 2019

Dozens of members of a white supremacist gang allegedly responsible for multiple acts of violence were charged in a superseding indictment unsealed today in the Eastern District of Arkansas. The indictment alleges that the New Aryan Empire (NAE) is a racketeering enterprise, which committed violent acts -- attempted murder, kidnapping, and maiming -- in support of its organization and its wide-ranging drug-trafficking operation.

"Today's superseding indictment of over 50 people reflects the FBI's firm resolve to root out criminal organizations who espouse hate and bigotry, and whose members sell drugs and commit violent acts such as attempted murder, kidnapping, and aggravated assault," said FBI Special Agent in Charge Diane Upchurch.

In addition to the violent acts, law enforcement officials investigated the NAE's methamphetamine trafficking organization. During the coordinated federal and state investigation, law enforcement agents made 59 controlled purchases of methamphetamine, seizing more than 25 pounds of methamphetamine, as well as 69 firearms and more than $70,000 in drug proceeds.

Will Trump call this a national emergency?

Drugs and Crime are the two jobs trump supporters are worried about losing to MS-13.

These idiot terrorists constitute a second great emergency inside the United States. One which would never occur to the Trumph brain or his sheep.

Which is why the US is throwing the book at them ...

NYC and MS-13 not so much ...

Federal immigration officials have arrested an illegal immigrant who is a member of the MS-13 gang after New York City officials released the man despite orders to hold him in detention.

Would be cool if you walked the talk ...

As so many remind us we are a Country of Laws. It is illegal to detain him in a decision handed down by the SCOTUS. It isn't up to local or state officials to enforce federal immigration law. It is up to the Federal government. If ICE couldn't be there in time and he really is a bad guy they should try harder next time rather than worrying about some guy brought here legally by his parents 30 years ago. Seems they catch a lot of those guys...

It sucks that this gang, which it is by definition, is highlighted by the media. But other gangs that are non-white that not only kill each other but kill whites who get in their territory (research it) are NOT called out. Not only are they not called out, but when people wonder what is being done about black on black violence due to gangs, it becomes a sensitive issue and we can't discuss it.

Black on black violence is played out. It doesn't sell advertising.

This site is a great example. People thought a guy in a MAGA hat randomly shot a black mother, front page news. Lots of engagement, many posts. When it's discovered the shooter wasn't a white Trump supporter, but a black gang member who maybe mistook the victim's identity, it was back page fodder left to fade away.

Because it's two different stories. One (black gang member) is about opportunistic criminal violence, more or less random, and the other is about political violence targeted against minorities, inspired by right-wing agitators (including the current POTUS). The former is "dog bites man" the latter is "man bites dog".

It's one story, with one set of facts, and media desperate to sell advertising.

"Black on black violence is played out. It doesn't sell advertising."

Wow, that's some classic white supremacist whataboutism right there. Nobody's supposed to care about dozens of violent criminals? Because black people??

You two should write the FBI and tell them just how upsetting these indictments of violent criminals are for you.
