Following the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, leaders of some of the most prominent extremist movements in the United States, including the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers, were sentenced to lengthy prison terms. While significant, those arrests might just cause extremist movements to adjust their tactics rather than cease their activity altogether, said Greenblatt and another extremism expert.
But, Greenblatt said, “while it’s definitely true that extremists will adjust their tactics, when the legal system works, when the wheels of justice create clear consequences for overt acts of intolerance, it makes a difference. “You can’t beat hate by just arresting people or prosecuting people,” he added. “You also have to build hope.”
Stewart Rhodes, the founder of the Oath Keepers, lived in Granbury prior to being sentenced in May to an 18-year prison term on seditious conspiracy and evidence tampering charges related to his involvement on Jan. 6. His arrest and prosecution are not likely to serve as a meaningful deterrent to some of the most hardcore adherents to his anti-government ideology.
