Christ, what an asshole
Only seven years?
Good. To be a Nazi is to be a criminal. I only wish the sentence were longer and only hope that he’s soon joined by more of his ilk.
Justice grinds along.

Since 2017, the organization has been linked to eight killings in the US and several violent hate crimes
Huh, almost as if there was some catalyst for white supremacist violence starting in early 2017.
He’s just a moderate republican at this point
I’m glad his attorney wasn’t able to make good use of the “very fine people on both sides” defense.
His “Young man from a good family with a promising future” card must have been Cosmic Zapped.
Today in “Would Be Ridiculous If Not So Dangerous”: “Atomwaffen” means “atomic weapons,” but these clowns couldn’t tell an atomic weapon from a toaster oven. Calling your group “The Atomwaffen Division” is basically the equivalent of putting umlauts on your band name.
Bless you for that comment, fond memories of CE games of days gone by.
The report below was released by Homeland Security under the Trump administration. Just think about how significant a threat it must be for THAT regime to report it.
Giving him 1000 years would have been about reich.
Yeah, it’s such a stupid name for a terrorist organisation. Also, if they’re going for German, it should be Atomwaffendivision.
And they were pissed about it. I don’t want to go on a Google hunt right now, but I recall reports of one of his classic Cabinet meeting baby fits in which he demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of how the government works.
ATW has been decommissioned. The toxic waste should be stored for much more than 7 years.
Why do the American Nazi’s always have the most punchable looking faces…?
I wonder how many years he was ignored (or abetted) by law enforcement until this finally happened?
