The Aryan Brotherhood of Texas prison gang is the “most violent extremist group in the United States, contends the Anti-Defamation League, reports the Houston Chronicle. The ADL, which has studied and tracked the group for years, published its findings Wednesday in blog posting that said that since 2000, the racist group has killed more Americans–at least 29–than any other domestic extremist group.
The Aryan Brotherhood of Texas is a prison-born gang that formed in the 1980s, and based in part on the Aryan Brotherhood. On Monday, the Chronicle reported on an ongoing law-enforcement probe that has put more than 60 of the gangs members in state or federal prison and continues.
