ADL.org: White Supremacist terrorist David Lane dies

by angryindian | June 15, 2007 at 05:28 pm | 2376 views | 6 comments

As you can see from the text, this White, Christian, Heterosexual, republican voting male was allowed to organise and co-ordinate White anti-government groups from within prison. How is it progressive political groups and individuals cannot work like this, (with the notable exception of Mumia Abu-Jamal) but prison gangs and White Power advocates can??


Odd, isn't it? - The Angryindian

---------------------------------------------------

White supremacist David Lane, a member of The Order, a white supremacist terrorist group that carried out armed robberies, assassinations and other crimes during the 1980s, was found dead in his cell at the federal prison in Terre Haute, Indiana. Lane, 68, was reportedly suffering from cancer.

Lane was associated with a variety of Klan and neo-Nazi groups, including Aryan Nations, in the 1970s and 1980s and gained notoriety when he and other members of The Order (also known as the Bruder Schweigen or the Silent Brotherhood) went on a crime spree that included the assassination of Alan Berg, a Jewish talk radio host, in Denver in June 1984. The Order also carried out armored car heists that netted millions of dollars, which the group funneled to various white supremacist organizations. The crimes committed by Lane and his cohorts were influenced by The Turner Diaries, a novel written by neo-Nazi William Pierce that laid out the framework for achieving a whites-only homeland in the United States.

The terror spree of The Order was short. By 1985, most members, including Lane, had been arrested by the federal government; its founder, Robert Mathews, died in a shootout with the FBI. Lane himself faced three different trials. In the first trial, held in Seattle, Washington, he was convicted on conspiracy and racketeering charges and received a 40-year sentence. In the second trail, held in Denver, he was convicted for violating the federal civil rights of Alan Berg (by killing him) and received a 150-year sentence. Lane was acquitted of sedition and conspiracy charges in a third trial held in Arkansas.

good stuff:

I'm constantly amazed at how hate groups are so adept at organizing themselves and at utilizing new technology as it emerges, yet still maintain the mindset of neanderthals! It's the twenty-first century; one would think that racism would be behind us by now. I guess not.

 I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW ANYONE CAN BELEIVE THAT WE SHOULD HAVE AN ALL WHITE NATION, THE UNITED STATE'S WERE BUILT ON THE PRINCIPLE OF FREEDOM FOR ALL. OUR ANCESTORS WERE NOT ALL WHITE. I MYSELF HAVE SEVERAL DIFFERENT NATIONALITIES. MY GREAT GRANDFATHER WAS A DUTCHMAN, AND HE MARRIED AN INDIAN, MY FATHER'S SIDE, MY GREAT GRANDFATHER WAS AN INDIAN , HE MARRIED AN IRISH GIRL. OUR COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED BY DIFFERENT RACE'S, WHY CAN'T PEOPLE FACE THAT. THERE WILL NEVER BE ONLY ONE RACE . GOD CREATED EVERYONE IN HIS IMAGE. EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT TO BELEIVE AS THEY WANT, THAT IS ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS ABOUT BEING AN AMERICAN, WE HAVE THE FREEDOM , WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE INDIVIDUALS, WITHOUT THAT RIGHT WE WOULD BE NOTHING. THAT IS WHY EVERYONE WANT'S TO BE IN AMERICA.


I GREW UP IN THE SOUTH WHERE THINGS WERE DIFFERENT, AND YOU WAS'NT SUPPOSE TO BE WITH ANYONE THAT WAS'NT OF YOUR OWN RACE. BUT, IN AMERICA IT IS OUR RIGHT TO CHOOSE WHO WE WANT TO BE, AND SOME CHOOSE TO MARRY OUTSIDE OF THEIR RACE. I PERSONALLY HAVE NEVER DATED OUTSIDE OF THE WHITE RACE, BUT I HAVE SEEN BEAUTIFUL WOMEN OF OTHER RACE'S.


 I CAN'T CHANGE WHO I AM, AND NO ONE ELSE CAN EITHER. I HAVE TO LIVE THE LIFE THAT I HAVE BEEN DEALT. BUT, I CAN'T SEE GOING THROUGH MY LIFE HATEING ANYONE FOR THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN. BECAUSE I HAVE NO RIGHT TO JUDGE THEM. WHY JUDGE THEM BY THEIR SKIN WHEN I AM NOT PURE MYSELF. FOR A PERSON TO BE OF TRUE WHITE RACE, WITHOUT EMPURITIES, AS THEY ARE CALLED. YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE A FULL BLOOD IRISHMAN. THEY ARE THE ONLY TRUE WHITES , BESIDE'S THE INDIANS WERE THE FIRST TO BE HERE, THEY ARE THE TRUE AMERICAN'S. I AM AN PART IRISH,AND PART INDIAN, I AM OF WHITE AND TRUE AMERICAN, NO MATTER WHAT THESE PEOPLE BELEIVE.

If you don't understand why people in the U.S. would want to purely 'White' nation, then I dare say you understand very little about American history and European colonialism.

good stuff:

Angryindian, Racism of all types whether by colour, language, culture or religion will most likely be with us forever.  Unfortunately it will never change, multiculturalism though I fear fosters racism to some degree, by featuringother cultures in the media proudly, and rightly so, but   if a whiterace tried to feature their culture as a white anglo race, they are relegatedby the media and public to Jerry Springer Status as backwoods rednecks. Politicians will always use the ethnic race card to get votes, though thehypocrisy is evident, as with Paul Martin who glad-handed every culture to prop up his liberal party, yet most likely would not have them as non political friends at his dinner table. Chretien on the other hand, loves his adopted(First Nations) children through and through, in good and bad times. The politically correct society that Labels in our Multicultural hyphenated society as Asian Canadians, African or East Indo Canadians I feel is such a Farce.  I have always stated and to this day to "When in Rome. Youare Roman period.  Your race has no bearing, we welcome your culture, you're Canadian as that is what Canada is all about.  There should be no invisible barriers with race, you live on Canadian Soil, you wish to be a Canadian and be a productive Canadian, they by all rights you are Canadian, no hyphenates, just Canadian. 

As for AI comments on the initial European Colonialism, truer words have never been spoken.

Government's self professed open dialogue with First Nations, has and always will be a sore point with me and others, government talk is so cheap, action cost money, money and First Nations land the government does not want to relinquish.  Not to get off track and the subject here but, some may disagree with me, but, my personal belief is to take care of our own first, when that has been satisfied, then helping others outside our country can be done. Until First Nations as the original Canadians get their due, we should stop giving billions in aid to others, unless we can do both successfully. You don't starve (knowledge, education, housing etc) your child to feed (MonetaryAid) an ungrateful neighbour (Countries) whose corrupt governments (most are) willpiss "away" Billions and Billions of Canadians hard earned dollars, with their countries citizenry receiving little or none of it to benefit. 

That is my opinion, heartless, most likely, so have I an answer?
No,We cannot give them all their land back, but we could start by
giving First Nations fair market rental value for all their lands,including major cities in the form of rent would be a start.

My Final Diatribe: 

Many do not realise First Nations have deplorable conditions in most rural areas, potable drinking water as one example.  Media, Public, and Politicians harangue First Nations with " We (The Government) give First Nations (Pop 1.3 Million) 10 Billion Dollars a year, what the hell are they doing with it?" Some in the Public Idiotic as it sounds think First
Nations should all be millionaires by now,living a Jet Set lifestyle,hob nobbing with the Rich and Famous and living in Solid Gold Houses
and eating Lobster and Caviar daily. Some do not realise a good chunk of that money is rarely in the hands of First Nations, this money goes to government bureaucracy, their building, hundreds of silly servants salary and their generous pensions and benefits,First Nationsprograms, health units etc, with what little is left for housing and infrastructure of reserve lands. For if the entire $10 Billion annually were divided equally amongst all First Nations people it would onlyamount to about $7,000.00 a year per First Nations Indian, a pittance for all the real estate the original Colonialist and past and present Governments stole and Governments feel this amount is adequate rent for all their land.   

As for Psycho Nazi God Boys, they do not merit media attention, for that is what they want, good or bad.

One more thing, I want the right to treat everyone equally so if a fellow Canadian who happens to be of  colour or culture pisses me off, I want the right to tell him he's an asshole, without having Johnny Cochrane's Ghost trying to Sue Me, and playing the Race Card.

Geez, I hate it when my Inner Hallmark Voice leaves me.

Oh yeah "Kill Flanders"

Excusing the practise of European racism by proclaiming that the idea is
universal is nothing but a veiled justification by it.  Racism as we understand
it today in the Americas
is the product of European Eugenics (racial science) and the need to explain away the use of wholesale violence during early colonialisation.  The true national pedigree is
virtually never mentioned in such discussions.  David
Lane was following a long tradition of social
popular racism by Europeans on the subcontinent and brought to the "New
World" with the initial invasions.  The genocide that
has ensued was based not simply on competition for resources, but the systematic
destruction by European settlers of the Indigenous population under the premise of
racial and ethnic superiority.  To deny this is to deny the history and
impact of Europeans in the Americas.

Even Canada has experimented with eugenic genocide with Indigenous
Boarding/Conversion schools, arbitrary imprisonment and the Alberta Eugenics
Board began sterilizations of those deemed mentally deficient which included,
but not limited to, many Aboriginal peoples and non-European immigrants. 
Is to mention this anti-White reverse racism?  Am I playing a "race
card" from a deck you brought into this conversation?  The article os
on a hateful and violent terrorist, yet you feel compelled to go into a lecture
on how you as a White male are restricted from "speaking truth to
power" without being called a racist.  you do not make a convincing
argument.

How you equate multiculturalism with engendering racism escapes me. 
Multicultural curriculums are intended to address North American racism by
dealing with the mass cultural and historical ignorance of Euro-Americans in
regards to non-Europeans.  In many if not all cases, the very same
ethno-cultural entities that reside within the claimed borders of
these "White" countries are only there due to European invasion and occupation, colonialism and imperial intervention.  
Or do you deny that the European invasion of the Americas
and the maintenance of the colonial situation through systematic genocide as
described in international law has never, and is not occuring?

While you complain about a non-existent "race card," nothing you have offered concerning
such a thing has anything to do with the death of an avowed Nazi in the United
States.  You have instead made this a "reverse racism" issue when the issue at hand is the death of an American terrorist. 

Your own ethnic insensitivity is evident when you write, "adopted (First
Nations) children".   First Nations people are not children. 
Our societies on these two continents go back centuries and our sciences
pre-date anything Europe had of any real value generations before the average
European could even read or write.  We are not children. 

What makes you any better than the late Mr. Lane? 
I suppose I do not need to point out that your paternalistic perspective of
Aboriginals as well as your total ignorance on Indigenous socio-cultural
paradigms in the Americas
is by the definition of the word, biased.   Your opinions as to what
Indians should do with with our material wealth are so far off the mark in
regards to how we handle and communally distribute what we have is racist on
it's face and offensive at a visceral level.  I've had differences of
opinion with people here before, but your commentary smacks of the very same
Eurocentic belligerence multiculturalism seeks to address.  Perhaps this
is your opposition to it.

The uniformed clowns that  go public with their biases are at least
more honest than the surreptitious Eurocentric bigot.  Hence, the
rejection they receive from the mainstream White public.  They make polite
racism simply look too bad.
