Federal and local officers converged on 35 homes and took 16 people into custody in Riverside County for a variety of crimes, including weapons, narcotics and parole violations, Hemet police Capt. Dave Brown said.

2. i KNEW the police were
wrong when they 'collected' all the Vagos members---haven't heard anything about no charges, have we?

not saying that some Vagos aren't 'white supremacists', but what they did to the Vagos was wrong.
