A leader of the neo-Nazi group Atomwaffen was sentenced to 84 months in prison on Tuesday over the group’s threat and intimidation campaign against reporters and Anti-Defamation League staff, according to the Justice Department.
Headline in error… ADL is not an “anti-Semitism group” – the opposite.
I wish my Jewish ancestors who were sent to death camps were alive today, to see people chastising me for calling out today’s GOP as Nazi, but unfortunately they were all murdered by Nazis.

This terror campaign sounds like more than one conducted by a lone wolf perpetrator. Yet I’ve yet to read of any co-conspirators or contributors to the crimes being arrested and charged.
They must be FBI informants I guess. Or GOP officeholders.
So, threats and pranks got him more time, then is being given to actual violent domestic terrorists.
Natch.
I hope the rat fuck leaves prison in a fucking box
I wish my father who helped liberate the Dachau camp and then was left there to care for the inhabitants was still alive to see this. And still a vigorous twenty five year old.
There would be hell to pay by atomwaffen and the like.

Does this mean he will only be able to deliver his keynote RNC speech remotely?
Damned shame, he’s perfect recruit material for the U.S. Army.
Kinda makes one wistful for “the good old days” when we weren’t just allowed to shoot nazis & fascists on sight, we were required to do so.
It’s not like he assaulted or impaled multiple police officers with an American flag and chemical weapons while stealing government property from the senate chamber in a coordinated conspiracy to disrupt an official act of congress.
That’s clearly just normal horseplay. All tourists do it.
IOKIYAMAGA
And being a Federal conviction, the fine gentleman will have to serve the whole 84 months!
Which is why he got away with it.
Oh … wait …
Yeah, back when we were all Antifa!
(Another argument for having it be standard journalistic practice to say what Antifa is short for.)
My MIL fled the Nazis after the Anschluss; when DFG came down the escalator and started his campaign of bigotry, she said, “This is how it starts.”
Kaleb Cole better learn from this:
Buddy, you’re a boy, make a big noise
Playing in the street, gonna be a big man someday
You got mud on your face, you big disgrace
Kicking your can all over the place, singin’
Buddy, you’re a young man, hard man
Shouting in the street, gonna take on the world someday
You got blood on your face, you big disgrace
Waving your banner all over the place
Buddy, you’re an old man, poor man
Pleading with your eyes, gonna get you some peace someday
You got mud on your face, big disgrace
Somebody better put you back into your place, do it!
More good news.
When did it ever stop?
Matt Gaetz has not been forgotten.
