Was that a gang sign they flashed from the open window as they passed? We know law enforcement has been run amok with white supremacist gangs for a while now. I guess this is just the latest iteration.

In 2017, the FBI reported that white supremacists posed a “persistent threat of lethal violence” that has produced more fatalities than any other category of domestic terrorists since 2000. 3 Alarmingly, internal FBI policy documents have also warned agents assigned to domestic terrorism cases that the white supremacist and anti-government militia groups they investigate often have “active links” to law enforcement officials. 4

They started as slave-catchers, and haven't changed much since then.
