White Supremacist gang getting stronger in USA
This news may not be surprising for Non Americans, but it must be an eye-opener for Americans as America is inhabited by people belonging to many different races. While American government and their state machinery is busy in 'Purifying' and 'Cleansing' faraway foreign countries (which many people in US can't even locate on map), what will become of USA itself if such kind of groups are allowed to grow stronger?

| White supremacist gang gains clout
By GILLIAN FLACCUS BUENA PARK, Calif. Mar 4, 2007 (AP)— The white supremacist gang Public Enemy No. 1 began two decades ago as a group of teenage punk-rock fans from upper-middle class bedroom communities in Southern California. Now, the violent gang that deals in drugs, guns and identity theft is gaining clout across the West after forging an alliance with the notorious Aryan Brotherhood, authorities say. Police say the gang has compiled a "hit list" targeting five officers and a gang prosecutor a sign of just how brazen Public Enemy has become. "They make police officers very, very nervous," said Cpl. Nate Booth, a gang detective with the Buena Park Police Department in Orange County. Law enforcement officials trace the gang's rise to shifts in the power structure inside prisons. The Aryan Brotherhood has long been the dominant white supremacist gang behind bars, with the Nazi Low Riders acting as its foot soldiers on the outside for drug dealing and identity theft. In 2000, officials reclassified the Low Riders as a prison-based gang and began sending its members to solitary confinement as soon as they were imprisoned. The crackdown hurt the gang's ability to interact with the Aryan Brotherhood, which turned to Public Enemy, authorities say. The alliance was cemented in 2005 when Donald Reed "Popeye" Mazza, an alleged leader of Public Enemy, was inducted into the Aryan Brotherhood. The pact has increased Public Enemy's wealth and recruiting power, said Steve Slaten, a special agent for the California Department of Corrections. |
