A new report notes that at least one member of the Proud Boys was motivated by a desire for revenge against police in his participation in the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.
Ethan Nordean, who goes by the alias Ruffio Panman, reportedly shouted at police through a bullhorn, saying: “You took our boy in, and you let our stabber go.” The statement was a reference to the arrest of Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio and the dismissal of charges against a man accused of stabbing four people at a Dec. 12 pro-Trump rally.
At that gathering, Tarrio, 36, burned a Black Lives Matter sign at a Black church. He was arrested for that crime when he arrived back to Washington D.C. in advance of the Capitol siege attempt.
The charging papers against Nordean, which were filed by the FBI and published by The Washington Post, noted that he solicited donations on Parler in late December, where he reportedly wrote: “Anyone looking to help us with safety/protective gear, or communications equipment it would be much appreciated, things have gotten more dangerous for us this past year, anything helps.”

Police really should not be trusting these domestic terrorist groups ever. You never know when they'll turn against you seeking vengeance.
