Arrested White Supremacist Blogger Tied To Hannity, Buchanan
Harold “Hal” Turner, a white supremacist New Jersey blogger and former radio host who frequented the same right-wing circles as Sean Hannity and Pat Buchanan turned himself into police today after encouraging his audience to “take up arms” against two lawmakers and a state official. The comments that lead to Turner’s arrest were made because he was reportedly “angry over legislation that would have given lay members of Roman Catholic churches in Connecticut more control over their parish’s finances.”
Aside from serving as the North Jersey coordinator for Pat Buchanan’s 1992 presidential campaign, a 2005 article by The Nation points out that Hannity “offered his top-rated radio show as a regular forum for Turner’s occasionally racist, always over-the-top rants.” The Nation also reported that Turner and Hannity’s conversations continued off-the-air as Hannity offered Turner “encouragement” while he struggled to kick his cocaine habit and overcome his “homosexual leanings.” In 2007, Hannity backed away from his association with Turner in a tit-for-tat debate with Black Panther leader Malik Shabazz. Watch it:
Much like Wednesday’s Holocaust Museum shooter (who Hannity conveniently didn’t cover on on the day of the attack), Turner has promoted violence in the name of racism, anti-semitism and white nationalism. In 2006, Turner left former Jersey City Deputy Mayor, Jaime Vazquez, with a back injury and a fractured wrist when Vasquez began publicly protesting his anti-immigrant comments:
TURNER: “(T)he illegal immigrants are breaking the law, and people like me should break the law as well by shooting them down.”
The Southern Poverty Law Center describes Turner as:
“A belligerent, foul-mouthed talk show host, Turner is the maestro of radio hate — a man who rants about a ‘Portable Nigger Lyncher’ machine, ‘faggots,’ ’savage Negro beasts,’ ‘bull-dyke lesbians’ and ‘lazy-ass Latinos … slithering across the border.’”

INTERNET AND BIRTHERS TO BLAME!
(The Blame Game!)
Here we go with the Blame Game, and playing the victim, “History shows how effective demagogic ravings can be when a public is stressed economically.” He warns that Jews, along with gays and blacks, could become victims of populist rage. (Source: Robert Reich, former Secretary of Labor in the Clinton Administration). redirecting the blame, from the root cause, it is the economy, the Internet for provoking demagogic ravings, it is the Right-wing, Neo-Nazi, Birthers, popular conspiracy theorist) And, now we have yet another joining the chorus of alarmist one, Paul Campos a professor of law at the University of Colorado at Boulder, writing for the Daily Beast, is pointing the finger at the Internet and the Birthers, in an article entitled (Is the Web to Blame, at http://WWW.TheDailyBeast.Com.), which is much like asking if a bullet, or gun are to blame for the death of the guard shot at Holocaust Museum, or vehicle is to blame as yet another person is killed by or in an auto car caused death.
(THE BIRTHERS)
Who are the Birthers, “Among other things, alleged Holocaust Museum killer James von Brunn is a “birther”—someone who subscribes to one of the many elaborate conspiracy theories regarding how Barack Obama is constitutionally ineligible to be president, because supposedly he isn’t a natural-born American citizen. Today police found a note in von Brunns car, reading in part, “The Holocaust is a lie. Obama was created by Jews.” (Source: Paul Campos).
The Birther Group, are the perfect version of Richard Hofstadters, (1964) essay statement “the paranoid style in American politics.” using the Internet and cyberspace as the beginnings of a new wave of political violence on such sights as (WWW.Stormfront.Org) and others, and are a confederacy of “losing dunces,” closely aligned with the if not conservative, repressed, political “Right-Wing”, Neo-Nazi groups extremely frustrated at their political views being cast aside by the majority now wanting their way by force, screaming about freedom, their version of freedom quite willing to squash others who do not agree, with them, deranged bigoted psychopathic, delusional anti-government popular conspiracy theorist also believe that (9/11) was a (AIE) American Israeli Empire conspiracy, and that the Bushes among others are part of the Bilderberg Group/Trilateral/New World Order, subscribing to other popular conspiracy theories, of Obama “being a, Usurper, Radical Communist or Jewish Born Israeli Mossad Agent or not only identifies with Muslims, but may still be one himself seeking the destruction of Israel and not a citizen of the Empire, questioning the constitutional right and refusing to recognize the validity of the Media Messiah Imperial President, too hold the office.
(JOINING THE GAME)
Now, not wanting to be left out of The Blame Game, one feels a necessity to join in. So, were does one place the blame as many people feel, the government of the Empire, the Imperial President of the West, the Prime Minister of the East, the (544) Imperial Court, and on down the line, will use this to give political cover too what (Napoleon I, in a letter to the King of Holland in (1807), once said about a ruler, A prince who gets a reputation for good nature in the first year of his reign, is laughed at in the second), while being able to bring up Right-Wing hate groups as a shield to protect the incompetence of the administration, hiding behind the threat that the museum shooting is not an isolated incident requiring more violations of individual freedoms, (THE MAIN STREAM PRESS).
(THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA)
The Main Stream Press and particularly the New York City, National News, across the board, the Left and Right which should not exist, but should be just the National Unbiased News, not providing political cover for one side or the other but working solely in behalf of the Public uncovering Graft, Greed, Corruption, and Political Hanky Panky, and wrong doing, one side is off the scale to the Right the other to the Left, leaving a wide open space in the middle, and guess what nature abhors a Vacuum, it gets filled quick, and this time it got filled by citizen activists on the Internet Cyberspace. But then again they also join the blame game as their ratings are on the bottom side a barrel, at the bottom of the deepest depths of the ocean, under the bow and sediment of the Titanic. How do you stop conspiracy theories with a free unbiased press, conspiracy theories fail under the truth supported by the facts and supporting evidence to those facts, not just Trust Me, Dan Rather didn’t check his facts and that was a bad move. So, Professor Paul Campos you blame the citizen journalist for filling the vacuum and we blame the professional journalist for creating the vacuum.
