An organization that raises funds for imprisoned high-profile neo-Nazis and domestic terrorists has published two letters penned by Poway synagogue shooter John T. Earnest. Last month, Earnest was sentenced to life plus 30 years; he had already been sentenced to life without possibility of parole following a plea agreement in September.[1] The organization website also provides Earnest's address at the San Diego Central Jail for supporters wishing to write to him.

In his first letter, he explained that he had been deceived and manipulated by Jews and thus had chosen a way of "defending his people" that was evil.
His second letter described his ideal society, in which all citizens would be of European heritage. He wrote that "European peoples are worth preserving:" and that cultures that safeguard European heritage must be reestablished. Also in the letter, he called for violent attacks on Jews.
