In a federal lawsuit filed this week in the U.S. District Court in Dayton, the city of Springfield alleged that the Blood Tribe and its leadership fueled fear and anger with its coordinated “hit” on the town to stop the “invasion” of Haitian immigrants. Springfield is seeking damages from the white supremacist organization for conspiracy to violate civil rights, public nuisance, telecommunications harassment, menacing, ethnic intimidation, and inciting violence.

The plaintiffs, which include the city and multiple residents and local officials, are being represented by lawyers from the Anti-Defamation League. Besides the Blood Tribe itself, the plaintiffs are suing the hate group’s leaders, Christopher Pohlaus and Drake Berentz, as well as seven other members of the organization.

They’re just called Nazis, but you can call them what you like as long as you prosecute them

Hopefully there's a federal government left to see the case

"The Blood Tribe" is a new one for me. I'm glad they're trying something.
