Tom Metzger dead at 82

Tom Metzger, the notorious former Ku Klux Klan leader who rose to prominence in the 1980s while promoting white separatism and stoking racial violence, has died at age 82. 

Riverside County Department of Public Health spokesman Jose Arballo Jr. said Metzger died Nov. 4 at a skilled nursing facility in Hemet. The cause was Parkinson’s disease, Arballo said Thursday. 

The former grand dragon of the California chapter of the Ku Klux Klan became one of racism’s most prominent figures after he left that organization in the 1980s to form the White Aryan Resistance movement.

    A life long democrat. Nasty P. Lousy should give his eulogy.

    Knowing how many amish work in those type of facilities I wonder what kind of care he received.

    I met him back in the late 70's. Say what you want, he loved our own kind without apology. He was a great guy.
