It's a Good Thing these people are ONLY trying to Murder Federal Disaster Relief Agents! IMAGINE what might happen if they were a Black Kid with a Backpack!

On a side note, I don't think these white hoods hide a lot of black faces beneath them.

Those white hoods aren't related to the people in question. To garner clicks, the article used a picture of a completely unrelated group from Wyoming.

You might be right about the image, but I wouldn't go so far as to say they're completely unrelated.

I'mma go ahead and assume the people hunting FEMA and the people in this image have lot of shared political views.

I'm not just guessing, they said so in the article:

Note: The group pictured above was in Wyoming, not North Carolina. The picture is 10+ years old. They opposed Federal plans to reintroduce wolves. I cannot find any pictures of the group in North Carolina that is the subject of this diary. I suspect that they would be camera-shy. I have edited the photo to mask out the dead body of a wolf, apparently shot by this group. Some commenters said that the unedited photo was too graphic.)

Sure, I'll give you that.

I'm still sticking with the assumption of mostly shared political beliefs, though.
