Prosecutors: 3 Arrested on Terrorism Charges in Las Vegas
BY MICHELLE L. PRICE and SCOTT SONNER, Associated Press
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Three Nevada men with ties to a loose movement of right-wing extremists advocating the overthrow of the U.S. government have been arrested on terrorism-related charges in what authorities say was a conspiracy to spark violence during recent protests in Las Vegas.
Federal prosecutors say the three white men with U.S. military experience are accused of conspiring to carry out a plan that began in April in conjunction with protests to reopen businesses closed because of the coronavirus and later sought to capitalize on protests over the death of a Minneapolis man in police custody.
They were arrested Saturday on the way to a protest in downtown Las Vegas after filling gas cans at a parking lot and making Molotov cocktails in glass bottles, according to a copy of the criminal complaint obtained by The Associated Press.
The complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas on Wednesday said they self-identified as part of the “boogaloo” movement, which U.S. prosecutors said in the document is “a term used by extremists to signify coming civil war and/or fall of civilization.”
Stephen T. Parshall, 35, Andrew T. Lynam Jr., 23, and William L. Loomis, 40, were being held on $1 million bond each in the Clark County jail Wednesday, according to court records.
Each currently faces two federal charges — conspiracy to damage and destroy by fire and explosive, and possession of unregistered firearms — along with multiple terrorism-related state charges.

*They* did nazi that coming, did they?
= new reply since forum marked as read
the Barr cabal, so that both case levels can get built and withstand any political judicial appointee's paying off a "debt." I did see the state part and federal parts.
I was just coming from the interests of journalism's rule of "who, what, where, etc." I just wanted to know if the FBI was involved, given that the FBI's looking a teensy bit awol around all things protest these days. Maybe because they don't want to get flack from the DOJ. Who knows.
Thanks. 
Thanks for the post. I'm happy to see the FBI is on it. Because the only real threat they could see or assess is clearly with the Boogaloo Movement. I'm glad they caught them early, too.
When that movement showed itself in 2018-19, the FBI could have planted 'residents' in their midst then, and so it will continue to catch them before they drop the molotovs and shoot. The FBI had to collect the molotovs and bullets used in nationwide looter/shooter scenes to see the range of methods and ammo Boogalosers use, along with all the surveillance footage they get, so agents can match them up with other members and group methods.
Terrorist by declaration of this president is something only his own voters fall for.
Don't they already have it?
