Aryan Brotherhood of Texas
The Aryan Brotherhood of Texas is the largest white supremacist prison gang in the state, and quite possibly in the entire United States. Formed in the 1980s, the group has a lengthy criminal history involving murder and drugs, among other things. They have no connection, other than by name alone, to the Aryan Brotherhood based in California and the Federal Bureau of Prisons. The group's patch is frequently made up of a shield-like image with a sword and a swastika inside the shield and the gang's initials on the outside. See also: Aryan Brotherhood of Texas hand sign.
