Yes, the Right is really trying to walk away from von Brunn, and what his actions say about Right-Wing Extremism.
Only days before von Brunn shot a museum guard at the Holocaust Museum, he transferred his website - holywesternempire.com - to Steve Reimink.
von Brunn registered holywesternempire.com in 2000. In 2003 it was designated a hate website by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
And how does Steve Reimink reward von Brunn?
I couldn't resist visiting von Brunn/Reimink's site, when I found out the above.
SHOCKING Holocaust Museum Murders by an 88 Year Old Man!
James Von Brunn, 88 years old, opened gunfire today at the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. Von Brunn is a SICK individual who was also a White Supremecist. He apparently hated Jewish people and anyone who isn't white.
People should not blame white Christian people for what James Von Brunn did today. A TRUE Christian does not kill, we respect and value life.
The "site" continues with a claim that they have opened to "say something about the horrible tragedy that happened today."
From balloon-juice.com we have the following, regarding Mr. Reimink, who now wishes to distance himself from Mr. von Brunn:
Reimink’s E-mail address, "steveo1488@hotmail.com" includes the symbolic number 1488. In white supremacist circles, 14 refers to the very popular 14-word slogan coined by the late neo-Nazi David Lane: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children." The letter H is the eighth letter in the alphabet, and 88 often stands for "Heil Hitler." Reimink’s cell phone was not accepting messages, and he did not respond to an E-mail request for comment.
