While only [Todd Jeremy Christian, a 45-year-old with an Austin address] was arrested, video evidence shows at least eight people were involved in the apparent assault on the group of family and friends. Of those eight, the Observer and Bellingcat have identified five—including Christian—as members or supporters of the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas (ABT), a white supremacist prison gang founded in the 1980s that is unrelated to the original Aryan Brotherhood.

Caldwell County District Attorney Fred Weber told the Observer that the “incident and circumstances leading up to the assault remain under investigation” and that “if warranted by the evidence additional charges may be filed.” Weber said he could not comment on whether additional suspects beyond Christian had been identified.

          One of the most apt things I’ve ever heard politically speaking is the sentence “If another country was doing to Americans what America literally does all the fucking time, the American Government would send the American Military to free America from the tyranny of America.”
