KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) _ A former Kansas City-area white supremacist leader who is charged with a 2004 mail bombing in
Scottsdale, Ariz., says he once scolded Oklahoma City bomber
Timothy McVeigh for blowing up the Murrah Federal Building while
innocent people were inside.

Dennis Mahon also ran unsuccessfully for a seat on the board of aldermen for the suburban Kansas City community of Northmoor and
later for mayor of Tulsa, Okla.

Mahon and his twin brother, Daniel, were arrested Thursday at their home in Davis Junction, Ill., where authorities say they found assault weapons, hundreds of rounds of ammunition and white supremacist material.

They are charged in the 2004 bombing of a Scottsdale city office the promoted racial and cultural diversity.
