Вот, допустим, Влад что-то не понимает:

Понять, за что их арестовали, я не могу. За супремтизм? За цвет кожи? За неправильные мысли?

Спрашиваем у Гугла: Why gun activists were arrested in Virginia?

Получаем ответ по первой или второй ссылке:

Three suspected white supremacists arrested in Maryland and Delaware this week had discussed opening fire from different positions at Monday’s planned pro-gun rally in Richmond, Va., in the hopes of causing chaos, law-enforcement officials said.

Authorities also confirmed they arrested three other men in Georgia this week who are allegedly linked to the same violent, white-supremacist group, called “the Base.” The Georgia men were arrested Wednesday for plotting to murder a Georgia couple, the Floyd County, Ga., police department said Friday.

Oh, thanks! Now I know. I also see that the title of that announcement was misleading. It's like "three muslims arrested for being muslims". Preparing a murder is a different story, obviously.

No problem. It's rather unfortunate that chasovschik banned comments from those who can google.

People are weird. You can see it in the comments I get, too.

You are, practically, a public figure :)

In a narrow circle. It's okay. Just have to be careful.

The second link I'm getting says "The FBI on Thursday arrested three men, two from Maryland, whom it accused of being white supremacists, possessing a machine gun and smuggling a like-minded colleague into the country from Canada, according to an arrest affidavit."

These three are different from the other three.

Седьмого арестовали в Висконсине.

On Friday, January 17, 2020, authorities arrested a man in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, and charged him with conspiracy to violate citizens' rights to use property free from threats or intimidation, according to court records. He is accused of vandalizing a Racine, Wisconsin, synagogue and is believed to have coordinated efforts with other members of The Base.
This was the seventh arrest of suspected Base affiliates in just one week.

Если уже и синагогу нельзя вандализировать, то куда вообще мир катится?

As part of this conspiracy, Barasneh vandalized the Beth Israeli Sinai Congregation in Racine, Wisconsin, by spray-painting swastikas, the symbol for The Base, and anti-Semitic words on the exterior of the synagogue. If convicted of the charge, Barasneh faces up to ten years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines.

В результате многолетней войны с террором "Ал-Кайда" просто перевели на американский язык и получили "The Base". А у нас тут есть русский магазин с тем же названием "Baza", но в русском языке это имеет совсем другой вкусный смысл. :)
