Today, hatred took center stage again. This time at the Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC. A man now identified as James Von Brunn entered the museum and began shooting. He shot a museum guard before he himself was shot. Both he and his victim are in serious condition.
Von Brunn, an 89-year-old man with ties to white supremacist groups has been in trouble with the law before. He once entered the Federal Reserve and tried to take hostages. He was arrested and convicted and after his sentence was living in Hew Hampshire.
If you have any doubts that hatred had anything to do with this attack, consider this, in a recent blog post, Von Brunn wrote that Hitler's "worst mistake" was that "he didn't gas the Jews."
So how is this not terrorism?
