When Jeff Hall, a rising star in the neo-Nazi National Socialist Movement, was murdered last spring by his own 10-year-old son, it seemed easy to blame the boy's exposure to violent rhetoric and guns. But, as correspondent Lesley Stahl reports, the truth is far more complicated. "60 Minutes" investigates the case and the growing strength of hate groups nationwide.
The following script is from "The murder of an American Nazi" which aired on Sept. 25, 2011.
Earlier this year, the leader of a neo-Nazi group was murdered in Riverside, California. His name was Jeff Hall. He was a burly man, six-foot-three, a devoted father of five young children and a plumber who had been unemployed for three years. Jeff Hall was shot at near-zero range in his own living room. What was astonishing - was who shot him.
Jeff Hall at home: We've been through a lot together, some of us, you know. Seriously.
This is 32-year-old Jeff Hall. These pictures were taken just hours before he was executed - right in this room. The executioner - this child: his son. His 10-year-old son. But if you find this image disturbing, consider this one: taken two weeks earlier.
"60 Minutes Overtime"
Video journalist Julie Platner spent a year chronicling the life of an American neo-Nazi and his family
A neo-Nazi rally on the streets of Trenton, New Jersey.
Hall at rally: Who's streets?
Crowd: Our streets!
Hall: Who's streets?
Crowd: Our streets!
Hall: Who's streets?
Crowd: Our streets! Zeig Heil!
Hall delivering speech: We are not afraid of you!
Jeff Hall was a rising star in the largest neo-Nazi group in the country, the National Socialist Movement, or NSM.
Extra: Breeding hatred in the U.S.
Crowd at rally: Zeig Heil!
The numbers nationwide are still small - 500 members tops, but they're growing.
Hall: This isn't dress up, this isn't a game. We are fighting for our children's future.
According to Jeff Hall and the NSM that future would be an all-white, non-Semitic America.
Hall: There's other groups I could join. There's tons of them.
Jeff Hall joined only three years ago - but seen as personable and charismatic, he quickly became the leader of NSM in California, Arizona, Utah and Nevada.
Hall: Zeig Heil! Zeig Heil! Zeig Heil!
This footage was shot by Julie Platner, a filmmaker and photographer, who was able to gain the NSM's trust.
Nazi: How ya doin' Miss Julie?
And enter their closed world of private meetings.
Hall: Julie has me mic'ed
Actually Nick they are NATIONAL SOCIALIST MOVEMENT.
25 POINTS OF AMERICAN NATIONAL SOCIALISM
http://www.nsm88.org/25points/25pointsengl.html
This is “cute”:
We demand that the State shall make it its primary duty to provide a livelihood for its citizens. If it should prove impossible to feed the entire population, foreign nationals (non-citizens) will be deported.
All non-White immigration must be prevented. We demand that all non-Whites currently residing in America be required to leave the nation forthwith and return to their land of origin: peacefully or by force.
THE UPSHOT OF THIS LITTLE BUNCH OF HEATHENS IS THAT THE STATE (REICH) SHOULD DECIDE EVERYTHING. NO FREEDOM.
Just like uncle adolph.
You are right, we are in the middle of a fight against Fascist under Obama. they like to call themselves progressives. You can interchange the names, all of these ideologies are about ONE thing the oppression of the people and hate. Hatred of individual freedom.
American “nazis”?
What a lame bunch of fear-mongering.
The falling satellite last week was more dangerous than American “nazis”.
The only nazis anymore are pimple faced pretenders, or the few still hiding in South America.
The left is becoming more absurdly bonkers, by the day.
Some people need killing. The kid should get a medal!
Liberal Democrat activist killed by his kid, film at 11.
The USA is doing it differently, with the soft bigotry of lowered expectations, rather than blatantly trumpeting a master race.
A master race is awfully convenient for a nationalist socialism, because it infallibly pegs who belongs to the nation (shoot, Hitler all but dubbed “Aryans” all over the world to be honorary Germans) but it wouldn’t absolutely be needed. And any socialism saps a nation’s strength, because it knows no stopping place.
Definite MSM fail. The CBS transcriptionist also gave us this gem, several times:
Hall: Who's streets?
Crowd: Our streets! Zeig Heil!
Probably some twenty-something journalism graduate from an elite college and with all the "right" degrees, but they don't know the difference between who's (who is) and whose (possessive). Brilliant.
