White separatist warns: "there are millions of white people who are trending in this direction"

A self-described white separatist from Butler County says accused Holocaust Museum shooter James von Brunn sent increasingly incendiary blast e-mails to friends and gave away his computer days before the gunfight that left a guard dead.

"I became concerned because his e-mails were getting more and more violent in tone. We whites, or we white separatists, were going to be rounded up and killed by Jews in the federal government. This is a widespread feeling in the white separatist community," said John de Nugent, a Rhode Island native who moved to Sarver, Butler County, in February 2008, where he hopes to lead a movement to create a "white safety zone" in a four-state area including Pittsburgh.

Today, Mr. de Nugent, who ran for president in 2008 and is planning to launch his own white separatist movement in the coming weeks, said yesterday's attack could be a harbinger of deepening anger among a subset of whites convinced the United States is being taken over by a Jewish led cabal and a black president they believe wants to seize their weapons and end their rights of free expression.

"James von Brunn is significant because he is somebody who simply acted on his belief," Mr. de Nugent said. "But I think there are millions of white people who are trending in this direction. If I were to advocate the violent overthrow of the country I think hundreds of people would join me right now. I am not advocating that."
