As Blender Janean asked as she pointed me to this article, “What do you think would have happened if these guys had a little color in their skin?” Hmmm. Anyone venture to guess they would have been whisked away for a little Homeland Security hospitality?

Las Vegas police arrested two “admitted white supremacists” during a traffic stop Friday after discovering an explosive device in their vehicle, police said.

Police stopped a 2002 Chevy Blazer at the intersection of Cheyenne Avenue and Marion Drive about 5 p.m. because the vehicle had expired plates. The Blazer’s occupants, David Jones, 34, and Darrell Cooper, 22, behaved suspiciously and were asked to exit the vehicle, police said.

The men consented to a police search of the Blazer, which turned up the device, police said. The bomb squad transported it to a remote area where it was “rendered safe,” police said.

Jones and Cooper, whom authorities described as “admitted white supremacists,” were arrested for possession of an explosive device. Jones, the vehicle’s driver, was also charged with transportation of an explosive device and manufacture of an explosive device.
