Trump supporter faces hate crime charge after lynching threat in Aldi parking lot

A Trump supporter in Michigan who went on a racist tirade and threatened to lynch a Black woman in an Aldi parking lot was facing hate crime charges on Monday.

Randall Lee Miller, 55, was boasting about white privilege and threatening a woman using racial slurs in Cascade Township on March 10, according to MLive.com.

Court records show that Miller, who is white and was questioned by sheriff's deputies, continued to double down on his comments and told a deputy he would say "something as equally as offensive" to anyone of a different race.

A Kent County sheriff's deputy described what happened in an affidavit of probable cause after a woman who was driving into an Aldi parking lot when Miller, who was driving a Jeep, cut her off. He reportedly started yelling at her while they were both inside their vehicles, calling her racial slurs, such as "n----- b----," according to the affidavit.

Authorities said Miller told her, "You’re the reason why we need to bring back hanging n-----s from trees."

Miller talked about white privilege, pointed at his skin and the American flag, according to the affidavit.

"Both exited their vehicles and Miller immediately called the woman a racial slur several times, police said. The woman said she initially laughed because she could not believe Miller’s behavior," MLive.com reported.

The affidavit indicated that "Miller aggressively started to smack the side of his vehicle with his hand while speaking out about white privilege and President Donald Trump."

The woman told deputies she felt threatened by him and reported the incident the next day.

Miller argued that he thought the woman was going to hit his vehicle. He was arraigned on a hate crime charge on March 31 and released on a $20,000 surety bond.

He was scheduled for a probable cause hearing on April 15 at Kent County’s 63rd District Court.
