A man who once threatened to storm the Sedgwick County Courthouse and shoot officers is again the subject of controversy after wearing a "white lives matter" face mask when he was sworn in as a student senator at Wichita State University.

The Wichita Eagle reports that 27-year-old Sam McCrory donned the mask Thursday, the day after former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of the murder of George Floyd. McCrory, an electrical engineering major, said he wore the mask to make a political point and to push back against "the modern left" which he said "hates white people."
