No, the Dead Kennedy's are not a band usually associated with racists or neo-nazis. The Dead Kennedy's have a famous song called "Nazi Punks F*ck Off"

The marking on the back of the truck does not look like the Dead Kennedy's logo. Similar, but not the same.

Here's the band logo:

While this and all you said and others may be true, could they mistaken by idiots for racists? Here's their thinking (stupid people) Dead Kennedys are dead democrats! That's good. They sing about Nazi punks...that's good! They make trance-like punk music. I can smoke pot to that!

Misappropriation possible? Also, the dude was probably trying to do the symbol unless there are other symbol's I"m not familiar with. It's been awhile since i checked out the SPLC's list of symbols.

anyway. the dude looks more than racist.

Dead Kennedys had disaffection for popular culture and society as a whole, so I guess racists could feel similarly alienated, while ignoring any songs inconveniently targeted at them. It is telling that DK had to make a song called "Nazi Punks F Off" But the whole Southern California punk scene in general attracted racist skinheads in the 80s and 90s, so this isn't unique to the Dead Kennedys.

I prefer the more subtle Take the Skinheads Bowling

Clearly, looking at the truck interior, you can tell the occupant is not of sound mind.

Thank goodness he was caught, but I don't think they can force him to receive treatment.

Huh. Here’s his grandmother: “The grandmother of an Oceanside man arrested near the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington, D.C., with a bayonet and a machete described her grandson as "always in trouble," and "heading in the wrong direction his whole life."

And, some facts:
“According to court records, Craighead had criminal cases in San Diego County, mostly in East County, dating back to 2015. They include felony reckless evading of a peace officer and felony second-degree robbery. His criminal record dates back to 1995 in Missoula, Montana, where he's faced charges of forgery and theft, criminal possession of a dangerous drug, and numerous counts of writing bad checks.”

Which came first the schizophrenia or the drug abuse?

That is close, but not quite the, DK logo. Regardless, the Dead Kennedy's are very much not racist. At risk of making the "black friend" fallacy, the last time I saw them play their drummer was black.

Of course, the possibility exists that that this guy couldn't actually understand the words to "California über alles"

The DK’s were (but maybe not currently) definitely racist.

Something seems off about this. How did he drive cross country without getting pulled over for no rear plates?

Probably had handlers clear the way for him.

So many agencies running so many operations these days, you can't really be sure which is behind which crock-up.
