Jeff Hall
RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP/THE BLAZE) — A California white supremacist who drew widespread attention when he ran for a regional water board seat was shot to death in his home, and his young son has been booked for investigation of murder, a police spokesman said Monday.
Jeff Russell Hall, 32, was killed early Sunday in the house he shared with his wife and five children, all of whom were home at the time. Hall died of a single gunshot wound fired “by a known assailant,” according to a Riverside County coroner’s office news release.
The weapon was described only as a handgun and police Lt. Ed Blevins refused to divulge the caliber of the weapon or the identity of the gun owner. Blevins said he was awaiting autopsy results.
The Riverside Press-Enterprise reported that police were called at 4:04 a.m. Sunday to the Hall home, which overlooks the University of California, Riverside.
Hall’s son was booked at juvenile hall for investigation of murder, Blevins said. He would only say the child was under 18 years old. A neighbor told the Press-Enterprise that Hall’s children are 12 years old and younger.
Blevins said the motive for the shooting hasn’t been determined, saying only “it was an intentional act. He wouldn’t release any details about the shooting.
Hall was the regional leader of the National Socialist Movement, which promotes white separatism on its website. He lost his November bid to replace incumbent Tom Evans on the Western Riverside Municipal Water District board.
The Daily Mail reports:
Mr Hall was a plumber and rising star in the neo-Nazi group based in Detroit, who ran for office at his local water board last November.
Neighbours said he flew a swastika from his home at a Halloween party last year and attendees wore Ku Klux Klan costumes.
A New York Times reporter attended a meeting of the local group at his home the night before he was killed, where Mr Hall called on members to join him for militia-style raids for illegal immigrants along the Mexico-Arizona border.
He said: ‘This is a very active area right now. You guys get your Glocks cocked and get ready to rock. We’re going to the border. That’s how we do it.’
Detroit-based National Socialist Movement spokesman Charles Wilson said the group didn’t have any comment.
A neighbor told the Press-Enterprise that Hall’s presence in the neighborhood was intimidating.
Juan Trejo described a Halloween party last year when Hall flew a swastika flag from the house and guests wore KKK hoods.
“Honestly, I feel like it’s over,” said Trejo, who lives across the street from Hall’s home. “It was scary here. Hopefully we’ll never see any of them again.”

Posted on May 3, 2011 at 9:26amVery unfortunate this happens to anyone[especially] when father and son are involved. I’ll bet He abusively treated his family and alcohol [possibly] was involved here. Son probably got sick of hearing his father and stressed out shot him. Just an assumption. When I was growing up my aunt shot my favorite uncle[i was six years old and at the time didn't understand alcoholism and it's abuse] in the head killing him and it was ALL ABOUT the family getting sick of being scared and abused physically and mentally from my uncle. I was sad but now being a RECOVERED alcoholic I perfectly understand how something like this happens in families. Very unfortunate.

Report Post »I do think that our obsession with tolerance is creating a platform for these haters. When we demand tolerance by eliminating all talk that someone thinks might offend someone else we allow the haters to flourish.
Tolerance comes from exposure and with exposure comes understanding. We need more understanding in our country and less “tolerance”.

Could be considered a success if you include people like Herman Caine or Allen West. That smells good to me. You, on the other hand, have some catching up to do, both intellectually and spiritually. Hope you can do it.
@Countrygal,
I agree….seps and racists are a scurge on the potential of our great experiment, whether black, white or brown (including our POTUS and the AG in those categories). Just have to have eyes wide open.

Posted on May 3, 2011 at 2:26pmteachermitch32: I too like Cain and West but are you willing to overlook all the crime data, affirmative action policies, test scores, contract law, and political effects of multiculturalism to just randomly conclude that it has been a success? Tell me how it benefits America when anywhere from 90-98% of a race vote for a political party which promotes ideals contrary to our Constitution?
Granted one can hardly win this argument any longer. Hollywood and the other Jewish Media have so indoctrinated America on racial issues that the average White American is just not capable of analyzing the topic logically and courageously. It’s so much easier to accept suggestions and it makes us feel so well when we are accepted by our peers doesn’t it?
Indoctrination is a powerful tool. I bet if you truly saw the whole body of evidence your opinion on the matter may be swayed but ha ha we all know that’ll never happen as long as Mr. Marx runs the Media in America..

Posted on May 3, 2011 at 9:06amAlways amazes me that the media wants to equate neo-Nazis and white separatists as the same thing. Many separatists, survivalists, and militia members are NOT Nazis. Sure, some are but not all. Many are true Patriots. Remember folks, the Separatists warned Americans back in the early 70‘s that our government was out of control and that if we didn’t do something it would eventually be too late. Of course, we all labeled them as nut-jobs, whackos, and let the government run media call all of them criminals.

That’s a good point that not all White Separatists are Nazis, but both are racists, so it’s easy to lump them together. Both have an irrational hatred of “anyone not like me”, which also allows you to lump them into the douchebag category.
I don’t care how “patriotic” a White Separatist thinks he is, if he was an American patriot, he’d believe that all men are created equal. I don’t consider White Separatists to be very patriotic people, just paranoid losers with a chip on their shoulder and a need to blame others for their poor life choices.

Posted on May 3, 2011 at 10:31amJaycen: None of our founding fathers believed it.. Have you never read there works on the topic? Even ole Abe did not believe it and I’d be willing to bet that the only reason you believe it is because you are either one of them or you have a weak mind which has been brainwashed by the Marxist Jewish controlled Media.
Regardless we wouldn’t be in the mess we are in today if Internatiaonal Jewry had not won WW2, but it is what it is and we must try to live with the consquences of living under a Jewish Apartheid. Albeit, in time just like in 1920s Germany white America will awaken. There’s no amount of PROPAGANA put out by GB, FOX, CNN, MSNBC, CBS..etc that will be able to hide the obvious from white America. I just hope they do not hurl us into WW3 before our people realize what has transpired.
