In early March 2021, the FBI arrested white supremacist accelerationist Paul N. Miller on three federal weapon charges. The FBI arrested Miller at his home in Fort Lauderdale following a federal indictment of being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm in 2018. Two additional weapon charges followed, after the FBI searched Millerâ€™s apartment and allegedly found ammunition and a short-barreled rifle. If convicted Miller could face 30 years in federal prison, 10 years for each charge.

In early October 2020, the ADLâ€™s Center on Extremism (COE) identified Paul Miller as a volatile New Jersey-based white supremacist, who at the time was using the screen name Gypsy Crusader. Concerned by his increasingly radical and violent rhetoric, as well as his online display of various weapons and real-life extremist related activities, the COE reported him to federal law enforcement authorities in New Jersey. Later that month, the COE tracked Miller to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and again shared significant intelligence about Miller with state and federal law enforcement.

Miller appears to have launched his journey into extremism via the boogaloo movement. In April 2020, he protested, alongside other boogalooers, the police shooting death of right-wing extremist Duncan Lemp. Miller posed in front of the Montgomery County Police Department Headquarters in Gaithersburg, Maryland, holding a boogaloo flag.

Miller also posted a photo (believed to have been taken in May 2020) on Telegram of himself dressed in boogaloo attire and standing with Ian Smith, a Bellmawr, New Jersey, gym owner who has attracted media attention for violating New Jersey coronavirus orders.

Millerâ€™s activities were not just online. On October 9, he posted a Telegram video of himself at a New Brunswick, New Jersey, Trump rally saying to a Black woman holding a â€œBlack Lives Matterâ€ poster â€œonly white lives matterâ€ and â€œHeil Hitler.â€ He turned his camera to another Black woman and ask her to â€œgive him a chimp outâ€ (using a dehumanizing reference to â€œchimpâ€ as a racist slur). He later drove past a larger group of protesters and repeatedly screamed, â€œNiggersâ€™ lives donâ€™t matter.â€

Meanwhile, Miller became increasingly popular in extremist circles for his racist and misogynist abuse on Omegle, an online chat app. Miller uses the app to harass women and minorities while dressed as supervillain comic book characters, then posts these interactions online to entertain his followers. He also began to sell white supremacist patches to his online followers.

By the end of October 2020, Miller had relocated to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he continued his online antics. He also continued his real-life activism by distributing white supremacist propaganda.

In late November 2020, Miller hung a banner that read â€œno white guiltâ€ from a Fort Lauderdale overpass as part of a coordinated nationwide white supremacist banner drop.
