This is one of the first cases where the FBI removed weapons from someone using "red flag" laws.

Police have taken weapons away from a man involved with a neo-Nazi group, who lives north of Seattle.

The federal government flagged Kaleb Cole as a threat to public safety and then asked the Seattle Police Department to step in.

Seattle and Arlington police used Washington's red flag laws to confiscate Cole's firearms, including an assault rifle, at the end of September.

The 24-year old in Snohomish County is known to be involved with recruiting people for white supremacist activity.

"The individual not only was espousing hatred and white supremacist views, but was actively participating in training camps, was engaged in rehearsals of attacks, seeking new people to join and commit acts of violence," says Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes.

Holmes says while people are allowed the right to free speech and gun ownership, Cole has shown "a pattern of threats of violence". That's grounds to have guns removed in Washington state under the extreme risk protection order law.

The group he's involved with, Atomwaffen, is said to idolize Hitler and Charles Manson, and have used hate speech toward Jewish people, the LGBTQ community, and people of color.

Holmes says Cole appeared to be training people for a "race-war".

His firearms are removed for one year.

He hasn't been charged with a crime, and he has never been arrested for anything ever.
thought crimes eh

would like to see the evidence of his plotting and training

Law like that could really be abused to silence free speech and "evidence" could be easily fabricated to target certain individuals/groups.

Look at these neo-nazi defending cocksuckers in this thread.

You understand that 'Atomwaffen' is a proper terrorist organization, right? It has committed multiple murders, bombings and has had other terrorist acts foiled.This isn't Billy Bob Buttfuck and his merry band of dipshits playing pretend people's militias so they can post pictures of their guns on Facebook - these guys are legit murderous terrorists and aren't playing around. Why would you want them to legally have access to weapons?

Memory serves me right it sounded like he was tempting the cops to do something and the cops decided to take his life.

Terrrible situation all around
