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

–John de Nugent, an acquaintance of James W. von Brunn, who opened fire at the Holocaust Museum.

Via Steve Waldman via The WaPo.

PS: De Nugent also called von Brunn a genius but described the shooting as the act of “a loner and a hothead.” The story also has many good details, including von Brunn getting kicked out of Mensa for failure to pay dues.
