David Eden Lane (November 2, 1938 – May 28, 2007) was an American white supremacist leader and convicted felon.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title = David Lane )〕 A founding member of The Order, he was convicted and sentenced to 190 years in prison for racketeering, conspiracy, and for violating the civil rights of Alan Berg, a Jewish radio talk show host, who was murdered on June 18, 1984. He died while incarcerated in the Federal Correctional Complex in Terre Haute, Indiana.〔 Lane coined the best-known slogan of the U.S. white supremacist movement, the 14 Words. He has been described by the SPLC as "one of the most important ideologues of contemporary white supremacy."〔 ==Early life== Lane was born as the third of four siblings in Woden, Iowa; he had a brother and two sisters. His father was an alcoholic migrant worker who was physically abusive towards his wife and children. Lane would later claim that his father forced his mother to engage in prostitution so he could obtain "booze money", and that his older brother was rendered with permanent deafness as a result of a "beating gone awry".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=David Lane )〕 When Lane was four years old, his father abandoned his family. In 1944, his older brother was arrested after searching for food in a neighbor's trash bins, and he and his sisters were placed in foster care. Lane was soon adopted by a traveling Lutheran minister, which resulted in Lane being separated from his two sisters. Lane has described his adoptive father as a "doctrinaire fundamentalist from the old school".〔''Deceived, Damned & Defiant'', pp. 7–12 (online and ). Also recounted in Goodrick-Clarke, p. 270.〕 Bored with endless hours of church services, Lane rejected Christianity, 〔 Lane claims that he first noticed the beauty of the Caucasian race after befriending a blonde-haired girl in first grade to whom he was attracted.〔 Lane has also stated that while he reenacted battles with his foster brother as a child, he would portray a Nazi stormtrooper while his brother portrayed an American soldier.〔 Travelling across the Midwestern United States with his adoptive family, Lane finally settled in Aurora, Colorado, where he attended Aurora High School. Originally aspiring to become a golf professional,〔Flynn & Gerhardt, p. 259.〕 Lane worked as a real estate broker until his license was revoked because he "wouldn't sell homes to coloreds in white neighborhoods."〔Schwartz, p. 64.〕 Lane was briefly a member of the John Birch Society before joining the Ku Klux Klan, becoming the organizer of the Denver unit of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan in 1979. In late 1981, Lane became Colorado State Organizer of the Aryan Nations.〔 Lane met Robert Jay Mathews in July 1983 at the Aryan Nations world congress.〔Goodrick-Clarke, p. 270.〕 On September 22, 1983, Lane was among the nine founding members to be sworn into The Order, a group which dedicated itself to delivering "our people from the Jew and bring total victory to the Aryan race."〔Gardell, p. 193.〕 The Order was accused of stealing over $4.1 million in armored car hijackings, killing three people (one of whom was Order member Walter E. West), detonating bombs, counterfeiting money, organizing militaristic training camps and carrying out numerous other crimes with the ultimate goal of overthrowing the "Zionist occupational government" they deemed in control of the United States and to "liberate the Pacific Northwest as a homeland for whites" in the process. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「David Lane (white supremacist)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
