They were a racist gang. They were based all over columbus but had hideouts all across the US. I believe their main hideout was in south columbus. They were known for bank robberies. One of their friends turned them in after the OKC bombing thinking they could be next to try something like that or were even a part of it.

Hmm, besides bank robberies they must have been pretty underground here. The SNP was big shit in those days.

i thought it was odd that they were a white power gang called ARA when one of the largest ANTI-white power organizations is also the ARA(anti racist something)
