This is an almost universal problem for Western nations. With the rise of populism, the police are much more likely to be aligned with alt-right movements, so when alt-right extremists show red flags, they get ignored.
It'd almost be comical that this guy rejected one right-wing fascist ideology and then cozied right up with another if it wasn't so goddamned sad.
