And in the Atlanta suburb of Douglasville, Georgia, the district attorney has won indictments against 15 Confederate flag supporters on charges of making terroristic threats and participating in “criminal gang activity.” The unusual move comes after a group of African-American partygoers said members of the white group, which calls itself Respect the Flag, threatened them with a crowbar and other weapons and yelled racial slurs. Meanwhile, in Texas, all of the more than 170 bikers rounded up and detained following a mass gang shooting in May outside a Waco restaurant have been released. Five months after nine people were killed in the shooting, none of the bikers has been charged with the murders, and only 22 remain on ankle monitoring.
