LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A white supremacist accused of stopping an Amtrak train in Nebraska has been charged with terrorism.
Documents unsealed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Lincoln show 26-year-old Taylor Wilson, of St. Charles, Missouri, is charged with terrorism attacks and other violence against railroad carriers and mass transportation systems.
The eastbound train with about 175 people aboard halted early Oct. 22 in Oxford, Nebraska, about 200 miles (320 kilometers) southwest of Omaha. Court documents say a Furnas County deputy sent to the scene found Amtrak employees holding Wilson. The deputy says Wilson had a loaded revolver, plus more ammunition and a knife.
The court documents show the FBI has evidence of Wilson’s activities with white supremacist groups.
The Associated Press left a message for his attorney in a related case Friday.
So… where are we gonna put that wall?
I’m not afraid of Al-Qaeda! I’m afraid of Al Cracker!
Good thing he wasn’t dusky hued, or this could have been dangerous.
Can we wall off the red states? Have to move out the part of the population that didn’t vote for donnie first, though. No non-trump voter deserves to be walled in with those people.
Have there been any other instances of these terrorists actually being charged as such? Don’t they generally get the lone nutter dispensation? This may be a first.
