‘The responsible white separatist community condemns this’ because ‘it makes us look bad.’
Von Brunn’s friend: ‘The responsible white separatist community condemns this’ because ‘it makes us look bad.’

... An acquaintance of von Brunn’s, John de Nugent, “who describes himself as a white separatist,” told the Post that von Brunn had been paranoid recently that “someone in Washington” cut his Social Security after “looking at his Web site.” De Nugent also tried to distance von Brunn from what he deemed “the responsible white separatist community”:

De Nugent called von Brunn a genius but described the shooting as the act of “a loner and a hothead.”

“The responsible white separatist community condemns this,” he said. “It makes us look bad.”

The Southern Poverty Law Center describes de Nugent as “a frequent contributor to virulently anti-Semitic and racist online forums,” who was banned from the racist online forum Stormfront after he apparently threatened a moderator who requested that he “tone down the implied threats of violence in his posts.”

1. I thought von Brunn was a leftist loon.
Why should right-wing extremists need to distant themselves from him?

2. "Responsible white separatist"
The world has a new oxymoron.
