Background/History |
The Posse Comitatus was an anti-government movement active in the
1970s and 1980s, many of whose leaders were Christian Identity adherents,
and whose ideology formed the basis of later groups such as the
Montana Freemen. The Posse died away in the late 1980s but former
Posse leader James Wickstrom restarted it in the 1990s solely as
a white supremacist group, shedding most of the Posse’s pseudolegal
theories.
