R.I. senators to review resolution denouncing neo-Nazis and white nationalists as terrorists
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Alarmed by the violent clashes in Charlottesville, Virginia, last summer, a group of Rhode Island state senators is urging police to classify neo-Nazi and white nationalists groups as terrorist organizations.
A Senate resolution introduced by Sen. Gayle Goldin, D-Providence, earlier this month “strongly denounces and opposes the totalitarian impulses, violent terrorism, xenophobic biases, and bigoted ideologies that are promoted by white nationalists and neo-Nazis.”
And it “urges law enforcement to recognize these white nationalist and neo-Nazi groups as terrorist organizations, and to pursue the criminal elements of these domestic terrorist organizations in the same manner and with the same intensity used to protect the United States from other manifestations of terrorism.”
