LYNNWOOD White supremacist emblems on patches, jackets and business cards were seized from the eight people accused of beating a black DJ north of Lynnwood, according to new court records.
A belligerent group of white men flashed Nazi salutes on the dance floor early Saturday at the Rec Room Bar and Grill on Highway 99, witnesses told Snohomish County sheriffs deputies.
One man in the entourage was former U.S. Army Spc. Travis Condor, 34, who runs the hate music label American Defense Records out of a Pittsburgh apartment, according to the nonprofit PublicSource.
The latest album from Condors racist skinhead punk band, Birthrite, featured a picture on the cover of Robert J. Mathews, the leader of white terrorist group The Order. Mathews died in a gunfight with authorities on Whidbey Island on Dec. 8, 1984. Each year, white nationalists travel to the site of his cabin to remember his sacrifice, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Did not know that history about The Order on Whidbey.
