Aryan Brotherhood running amok in Texas?

Oops. Never mind.
Texas prosecutor murders: Not linked to white supremacists, after all?  
The wife of a disgraced former justice of the peace is charged in killings once suspected to be the handiwork of the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas

I explained what prison gangs are about in VDARE.com in 2005.

    The Aryan Brotherhood is the single (albeit imperfect fit) white-superiority group the sort of late-middle-to-old-aged men who write cable dramas, edit web sites, and command the transnational media corporations seem to find sympatico on a personal level. They're always hoping for them to do something interesting or at least newsworthy

  2. Even if the media had been right about the Aryan Brotherhood, they wouldn't have been right.

    They're no more white supremacist than the Bloods and Crips are black supremacist.

  3. When attention started being paid to this case, they explicitly linked it to a murder in Colorado where the perpetrator (killed by police in Texas) was a mistakenly released member of a different white prison gang (called the 221 Crew or something like that). Pundits realized that these were distinct prison gangs, in separate states, and there wasn't actually any evidence linking the first guy to any of the other murders (other than that he drove down to Texas and got killed there), but it was as if they can only hold one thought in their head at a time. I'd call it an example of the "priming effect" that Kahneman is awesome for detailing, but I don't want to get off topic.

  4. I must say the arrested couple are most unlikely suspects - suburban middle-class types, the man a former lawyer colleague of the victims. With such a perfect fit for Great White Defendants, why couldn't the victims have been Black?

  6. From the Red Cross blood donation website: "If you have been incarcerated for more than 72 consecutive hours in a jail, prison, ... postpone donating until 12 months have passed."

    Does the Red Cross have an "axe to grind" or is there a reason that being in jail or prison that makes one an undesirable candidate for blood donation? Assuming there is a reason, could it be related to why prisoners tend to join ethnic gangs?

  7. They probably been there for some time Texas but I bet the rise of the Mexican population particulary under Rick Perry has caused them to grow in Texas.

    You can just feel the frustration in that headline.

  9. As of yesterday, Yahoo "News" still featured links to several old stories. The false link to the Aryan Brotherhood is still spreading, while truth gets its boots on.

    You think those stories will be retracted? Or even quietly put away anytime soon? I doubt it.

    >You can just feel the frustration in that headline.<

    Yes. Such writers, truth be told, are still sore about the Duke "rape" case - never mind a different debunking just a few days old. I bet they will keep the false link out there for some time, out of ethnic pique, if nothing else.

  10. David 4:45-- so what, should the Aryan Brotherhood's counsel now start filing torts against Marissa Mayer? For harmfully spreading libel of the AB being bad-ass and dangerous? Grow up...
