A suspect accused of fatally stabbing two people on a train in Oregon, after they intervened in his alleged anti-Muslim rant, has appeared in court.
Jeremy Joseph Christian, 35, is charged with murder, attempted murder, possession of a weapon and intimidation.
During his brief appearance, he shouted slogans such as: “You call it terrorism. I call it patriotism.”
He could also be heard shouting “Death to the enemies of America”.
“Leave this country if you hate our freedom - death to antifa,” he said, using a common abbreviation for the anti-fascist movement.
He did not enter a plea to the charges and is due to appear in court again on 7 June.
President Donald Trump has tweeted that last week’s attack was “unacceptable”.
Portland’s mayor is meanwhile trying to ban a forthcoming right-wing rally in the West Coast city.

The attack unfolded on Friday afternoon after the suspect began spewing “hate speech” towards two young women on a train, police said.
Taliesin Namkai-Meche, 23, and Ricky Best, 53, intervened and were fatally stabbed at the Hollywood Transit Center train station, said investigators.
Another man, Micah David-Cole Fletcher, was slashed in the neck and is recovering. He was in court on Tuesday to see Jeremy Joseph Christian’s appearance.
