Merrick Garland has it all wrong. It is not white supremacists who are committing the most violence in the US today but godlesds gangsters, often barbarous mobs of illegal immigrants or black or brown American city street thugs. Is that racist? It certainly looks that way.

Gangster Disciples
The Gangster Disciple Nation (often abbreviated as the GD's; formally, GDN), also known as Growth & Development, is an African American street and prison gang founded by former rivals David Barksdale and Larry Hoover; in 1968, the two came together to form the Black Gangster Disciple Nation (BGDN).
Post-1989, following growing tension between the two over declining leadership, the BGDN split into two new factions—Hoover's Gangster Disciple Nation (GDN) and Barksdale's Black Disciple Nation (BDN), respectively. As of 2022, following Hoover's departure, the GDN has no full-time leadership role.[10]
