"Did the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas Just Scare a U.S. Attorney Into Quitting a Major Case?"

So, do they have reason to believe the Aryan brotherhood are responsible for the prosecutors death in TX? Because I caught bits about the case on tv and I didn't see anything about it (but I don't have cable so I don't follow that stuff closely).

J said...

Yes Sir Lee Bob.

I'd say the AB is about to get duly processed.

No facts just a lot of handwringing and hype.

Remember when the Feds were sure the Beltway Sniper was a white redneck religious bigot militia guy?

Amartel said...

I read that the Aryan Brotherhood are doing the dirty work in the U.S. for the Mexican cartels.
It's good to see men of diverse cultures putting aside their differences and coming together to accomplish common goals.

Brian Brown said...

No.

But there was a lot of speculation in the article.

The only real Aryans are the Iranians and the Brahmin cast of India. The blond blue-eyed people of Europe are descended from the Gauls/Celts. The Nazis were wrong on so many levels, it's hard to understand how they got so many people to buy into it.

AB or AB & Mexican cartels?

SomeoneHasToSayIt said...

The Game is clearly stepping up a notch, between Cops and Robbers.

Is Politics next?

Methadras said...

All signs point to yes. Clearly the Aryan Brotherhood has now declared war. I'm going to wait for the authorities to declare them a terrorist group just like any other gang should be.

Methadras said...

The thin veneer is beginning to lift. Oh my, look at what I see underneath it.

"The Nazis were wrong on so many levels, it's hard to understand how they got so many people to buy into it."

The power of the self-serving racial/ethnic/religious myth.
It's not hard to understand how so many people buy into it. It allows the person to think well of him or herself without thinking too deeply or working too hard.

Just a guess, but Josh is not from Texas. Right?

Because what comes next will unleash the dogs of hell. Everyone of these gangsters, including the Cartel and the Aryans are walking dead men.

And the Texas Rangers are earning a goodly amount of overtime.

Watch.

Put down the doobie, bro. You've burned out your faculties, mate. Goneski.

========================
Lot of ignorance there, with KenSC.

The proto Indo-Europeans had common genetic and liguistic traits that appear to have originated in the Baltics in the mid-Neolithic period 5500-7,000 BC.
They spread into Western Europe, ME, west Russia, Iran, N India by 3,000 BC.
They include what the Romans called Gauls and Celts and Germanic tribes, the Persians, and of course the Romans themselves.
The Nazis didn't invent the "Aryan Race"...it was a standard liguistic and anthroplogical grouping accepted by the scientific community beginning in the late 19th Century. The Germans bought into it no more than the Brits or Americans did. And they are still mostly right.
Better analytical tools show a more complicated picture, more genetic mixing between arriving Aryans and natives than once thought......but the tools confirm Aryan linguistic and genetic markers that reinforce the 19th Century theories on origins and spread of the Aryan peoples.

What the Nazis did, to extoll a "romantic German identity" was add misplaced window dressing to recast Aryans as a "Master Race". (Even though the Aryans had losses in competition with other ethnic and linguistic groupings...pushed back by Arab Semites and Turkic peoples..outmaneuvered by other ethnicities in business.)

Our understanding of human origins will once again advance when the last of the people with living memories of WWII finally die off. And the cold hard facts of genetic studies meet cultural folklore..
And ideas and theories can be discussed free of the political baggage imposed by WWII victors.

Then we can work on the idiocy of 1960s leftist racial theories and ethnic studies that hold "race is an artificial social construct and "no people or civilization is better or more accomplished than any other grouping anywhere on the planet and if you think otherwise, you are a bigot" Lefty politics.

I could swear I remember reading about violent cases like this back during Prohibition. I must be the only one, though.

Did the violence around booze end when Prohibition ended? What can we learn from that? Assuming, of course, that anyone would rather learn from the past instead of profiting from the current state of affairs.

Cedarford said...

As for the Aryan Botherhood..despite what liberals and progressive Jews that run much of the media and academia say..are no more racist than their racially or ethnically organized Crips, Bloods, Snakehead Triad, Latin Kings, Mexican Mafia, Russian Jewish Mafia and Yakuza counterparts.

For example:

Witness and law enforcement intimidation is standard operating procedure, say for the Crips and Bloods. Who have imposed "no snitch" codes on whole cities full of black underclass. And do well-organized intimidation of witnesses and non-gang members that will not assist gangs if asked to do favors to gang members or pay over "protection money". And Crips and Bloods and their "legit" allies in city employees have "persuaded" city leaders and ambitious lawyers that their success in politics, business, and real estate investments is contingent on not meddling too hard in gang-related activities.

the AB is just following the Democrats lead. Threaten. Isolate. Make it personal.

SGT Ted said...

Meanwhile, Crips and Bloods and other ethnocentric Gangs of Color are shooting hundreds more people in all the cities of the US. I think even the 1%er biker gangs, lots of whites in those, are killing more people. But, there is an escalation in killing of US officials and dollars to donuts that other gangs are part of it.

Does the Aryan Brotherhood deal drugs to get money, like the other racist Gangs of Color do? I seem to remember them of old robbing banks, much like the Marxist political gangs of the 1960s.

Well did they? It's a worthwhile question to ask but (given the flammability) not to answer prematurely.

William said...

It does seem that whoever is committing these murders have instilled fear in prosecutors.

It it entirely a different question whether the culprits are members of the Ayran Brotherhood.

It is at least as likely that the Mexican Drug Cartels are behind these crimes. But for the media that would be impolitic and run against the meme - especially as we are looking at 'Comprehensive Immigration Reform'. The drug runners and the people runners are just different sides of the same coin.

There is no convincing evidence who the perpetrators are just yet.

The previously assigned prosecutor resigned but they didn't announce why. It's possible the move was initiated by the Feds desiring a more experienced person. But it seems likely the answer is yes.

edutcher said...

They've also instilled fear in the media.

Interesting this is the first we've heard of the troubles on the border, pretty much.

Humperdink said...

White guys, drones and OweBama. This will get interesting.

ken in tx said...

I don't do flame wars.

Greg Hlatky said...

Will any of them be offered positions at Columbia University?

Anonymous said...

Good for them (or the Mexican cartels that hired them).

As we've learned from leftists in the last 50 or so years, and especially from the cowards here, leftists absolutely fear and cower when confronted with a physical attack.

Treating them civilly---not attacking them, not confronting them, putting up with their violence---only encourages more incivility from them.

Meanwhile, confronting them with violence---black gangs swarm attacking them, Muslims blowing them up--only sees them roll over and worship those who murder with no thought.

It's about time whitey re-learned the lessons the darkies have remembered: kill a leftist, and his family will worship you forever.

Grasp the nettle, boys.

Good ol' Fudd somehow turns this into yet another unhinged anti-Semitic rant. Must be getting tougher and tougher to keep up at the flophouse JO. Now what gender are your children today, Fudd?

In Mexico the drug cartels routinely torture and murder pols, judges, and media people to intimidate them. It has worked very well for them since most people aren't heroes. It is not surprising to see the same thing spread to the USA.

The AB is tiny compared to the black and mexican gangs so my guess is that it poses a much smaller threat than they (black and mexican gangs) do. It is completely unsurprising that the left would portray the white gangs as a relatively larger threat than they are.

It seems very likely that as the hatred and contempt between the left and right grows, so will political violence. I wonder if the various gangs will act as proxies to do the dirty work of the pols.
