BRUCE PIERCE, ROT IN HELL!

Besides the fact that people are dead because of this POS, our only regret is that he wasn’t able to do at least 85% of his 252-year sentence, but dying broke, alone, miserable and in his jail cell for this amount of time will have to do. We have learned that the neo-Nazi reputed to have been the one who killed Denver talk-show host Alan Berg in 1984 is now wormfood. Bruce Carroll Pierce was a member of the Order, a White terrorist group that was modeling itself after what they read in the Turner Diaries a decade or so before Tim McVeigh used the book as a blueprint for Oklahoma City. They also did an armored truck heist whose take might have ended up going to Aryan Nations – which doesn’t mean much now that all their funds goes to a Native American family these days thanks to a 2000 lawsuit. At the time of this writing, the word has not gotten out to the neo-Nazi crowd just yet, but when it does they can be sure that as they weep for their fellow degenerate,  the rest of us will be shouting our own version of the 14 Words + 1: Bruce Carroll Pierce, Rot in Hell – three times!

ALLENWOOD, PA—Bruce Carroll Pierce, one of the members of the White terrorist organization the Order, died in his cell Monday at the Allenwood Federal Correctional Complex in the Allegheny Mountains. At the time of his death, he was serving a 252-year sentence for his participation in the group’s activities, which included bank robberies and the murder of a popular Denver talk-show host. He was 56 years old.

According to prison officials, the Kentucky native died of natural causes, but no other information is available.

Founded in September 1983 by Robert Jay Matthews, the Order, also known as the Brüder Schweigen (Silent Brotherhood in German), was known for a series of bank robberies throughout the Northwest that year and a Brink’s armored truck heist in Ukiah, California where they took in $3.6 million. Their mission was to make revolution against the United States government, which they referred to as the Zionist Occupied Government (ZOG). They particularly based their crimes on those of the paramilitary group found in William Pierce’s book the Turner Diaries, which features a group called the Order.

On June 18, 1984, Alan Berg, radio host from Denver that was known for mocking right-wing extremists and particularly ridiculed Order front man David Lane during an on-air exchange, was allegedly shot to death by Pierce outside his home with Lane driving the getaway vehicle. Pierce, Lane, Richard Scutari and another accomplice named Jean Craig were indicted, but ultimately no one was convicted of the murder. Instead, Pierce and Lane were convicted of racketeering, conspiracy, and violating Berg’s civil rights. Lane, who was sentenced to 190 years, would go on to author a white supremacist motto the “14 Words” (“We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White children”) before dying in prison in 2007.

The other members of the Order would either end up dead or in jail by 1985 when the FBI started to arrest the members and effectively squash the group, courtesy of Tom Martinez, an Order member who turned informant. Ironically, the group reportedly killed another member falsely thinking he was the informant. The group’s leader Robert Matthews would die in a shootout with police on Whidbey Island, Washington.

According to Leonard Zeskind’s book Blood and Politics: the History of the White Nationalist Movement from the Margins to the Mainstream, Pierce told FBI officials that the $3.6 million the Order stole from the Brink’s truck robbery was distributed among who would be his codefendants in the 1985 sedition trial at Fort Smith, Arkansas. He attempted to plead guilty of the charge, ashamed that he became a collaborated with the government, but withdrew the plea after one of those codefendants, Christian Identity pastor Robert Miles, forgave him for doing so.

Pierce remained an active white supremacist until his death, but while he and his colleagues of the Order became folk heroes outside prison walls, it didn’t translate to real support for them inside. “There is no mail & no assistance at all,” he wrote in 2006. “Frankly, it hurts to see mongrel drug dealers, pimps & the ungodly receive more attention.”

At press time, there is no word about funeral arrangements.
