Holocaust Museum shooter is also a Birther
Edited on Wed Jun-10-09 02:04 PM by RamboLiberal
We're putting together a list of James W. von Brunn's various writings on the web -- a mix of anti-semitic and white supremacist rantings. Perhaps not surprisingly, he was also big on the 'mystery' about whether Barack Obama is really a US citizen.

On edit TPN has his rants: http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/documents/2009/06/james-w-von-brunn-obama-is-missing.php?page=1

Big surprise there. :sarcasm:

2. A commentator on MSNBC suggests that the election of Obama has contributed
to the increase in hate crime. That having a black man in the White House, with many advisers who are Jews - trigger that sense of... I don't know, taking over by the non-Aryans?

4. no matter what one thinks of Obama, he couldn't be more
inclusive...he promotes it-perhaps that is what is really scary for these nutjobs.

6. And, of course, inclusiveness is what these nuts dread the most
after all, what would happen to their sense of "superior race" if everyone is equal?

10. You mean the guy from WMAL - home of Hannity and Limbaugh? He seemed to relish giving

13. I don't think so. I think it was someone from an organization tracking
hate crime, with the word "poverty" in its name.

14. That guy was from the Southern Poverty Law Center, which does God's work in tracking and prosecuting
right-wing terrorists.

I'm speaking of the guy from WMAL-radio - home of right-wing hate radio in the DC area.

Here's some screenshots if they delete it: http://thinkprogress.org/2009/06/10/brunn-holocaust-shooter/

Actually, I can't tell if that's just someone re-posting his stuff there, so maybe he isn't.

7. I just emailed KDKA Radio in Pittsburgh who has had birther shows
Edited on Wed Jun-10-09 02:13 PM by RamboLiberal
at least 3 times I've heard including just about a month ago with the TPM info on this shooter. I've been pointing out to them how they are fueling these nutjobs. Unfortunately we had our own example in April when RW supremecist who was scared Obama was going to take his guns ambushed and killed 3 Pittsburgh police officers.

Radio station for 2 weeks was on "We support the fallen officers" gig while at the same time they fuel the hatred and paranoia of the nutjobs out there.
