Arnie Lerma: Pulling A Con?

con man (confidence man, con artist)

1. a person who deceives other people by making them believe something false or making them give money away.
2. a swindler who exploits the confidence of his victim.

The Trick

It is a common trick of the con man to accuse others of crimes which he himself is guilty of committing. He does this to divert your attention away from him. The con artist can get so involved with his trickery that he even fools himself into believing his own lies! The con man is "mentally challenged".

This is how Arnaldo Lerma operates. He publishes and promotes lies about people and groups who are sincere and honest, and then solicits money from his new found supporters to "combat" these worthy individuals and groups.

The Deception

Arnaldo Lerma earns money by soliciting donations to his various hate-related causes at his Internet domain and begs for financial support in email he sends and newsgroup postings. The majority of funding has come from a few wealthy contributers whom Lerma has conned. Some of these people finally caught on and stopped funding Lerma.

Lerma's requests for financial support are carefully worded, designed to deceive the unsuspecting reader. On his Internet website he specifically says, "Your non-tax deductible gift".

"Non-tax deductable gifts" are distinguishable from personal income per US tax law. "Gifts" are not the same as donations to a non-profit organization such as a church or the fireman's relief fund.

He also requests potential "marks" call him on the telephone, possibly so he can request that they send cash. Beware of any businesses (esp. Internet based) that specifically request that you pay in cash.

Lerma's business (inc. Internet based) is a FOR PROFIT activity, it is NOT a charitable institution. Beware of businesses that mimic non-profit institutions.

Undisclosed Wealth

Lerma continues to plead and beg for donations despite the fact that he has major financial assets.

In 1986, Arnie Lerma purchased a home in Arlington, VA for $118,000. Today that same home is valued at $458,200. In the past nine years his home has increased an average of $86,800/year in value based on the current Arlington Property Assessment of his home.

Lerma refrains from telling his "marks" about his real wealth.

Financial Discrepancies

In a 2000 civil suit, a Superior Court in Georgia ordered Lerma to pay $413.00/month in child support. Why had the Court intervened? Was Lerma a Deadbeat Dad? Had he neglected his duties as a father?

Lerma was required to submit a sworn affidavit (financial statement) to the Court, in which Lerma reported:
- monthly gross income of $556.00
- monthly expenses of $2317.00
- total assets of $108,992.15
- total debts of $105,844.00
- business pays for auto and half of house.

The figures Lerma submitted do not seem to add up.
- Did he "pull a fast one" on this Georgia Court?
- Is the financial data he submitted accurate?
- Was Lerma being dishonest?

See for yourself. View Lerma's 2000 sworn affidavit in it's entirety right here:

Lermanet.org removed from these documents: Lerma's social security number, his ex-wife's name, his son's name, his bank account numbers, and a creditor's name, all else is intact.

Where Does All The Money Go?

Lerma has collected and spent thousands and thousands of dollars over the years, hard earned money duped from people he conned.

- Does he spend it on drugs?
- Does he spend it on guns or other anarchist materials?
- Does he use this money for his personal living expenses?
- Are his financial records in order?
- Does his business really consume one half of his house?
- How can he live on $556.00/month when his expenses are $2317.00/month?

These questions are of special interest to tax authorities.

Arnie Lerma's close friend, neo-Nazi leader Willis Carto keeps a bust of Hitler in his bedroom.

Arnie Lerma: The Neo-Nazi

neo-Nazi

1. neo - recent or new.
2. Nazi - relating to or consistent with the ideology and practice of Nazism or the Nazis; Adolph Hitler's political party.
3. neo-Nazi - A member of a fringe group inspired by Adolf Hitler's Nazis.

Lerma's Pal: Willis Carto

An organized neo-Nazi propaganda movement began in 1979 when Willis Carto, founder of Liberty Lobby (the largest anti-Jewish propaganda organization in the United States) incorporated the IHR (Institute for Historical Review).

Carto's Nazi ties and connections are documented well in the Simon Wiesenthal Center's 1994 infiltration report.

Arnie Lerma was on the Board of Policy of Carto's Liberty Lobby and is a longtime supporter of Carto. Supposedly retired, Carto is now believed to reside somewhere in Virginia not too far from where Lerma resides.

Lerma continues to conspire with Carto. Carto recently presented Lerma with numerous personal anti-Semitic letters and documents. Lerma has published some of these hate oriented files on his Internet domain.

Seeds Of Hatred

Lerma maintains an Internet website where he spreads his hatred and neo-Nazi ideals, much the same way in which the original Nazi propaganda was spread throughout the world in the 1930's and 1940's. His purpose is to seed the minds of readers with falsehoods, to spark controversy and chaos, with no regard for the consequences.

Below is an example of someone who had visited Lerma's website and became corrupted with Lerma's neo-Nazi hate propaganda.

Lerma's Website Corrupts Readers

Recently, a church received several threatening email messages. The writer was very specific about the violence he intended to inflict on the church and its leaders. The writer threatened to kill; he threatened to destroy.

In cooperation with law enforcement agencies on two continents, the writer was identified and brought to justice. The writer saw the effects his hate messages created, confessed and was remorseful.

He also confessed that the anti-religious propaganda of Arnaldo Lerma and other extremists had prompted him to write these messages. In his sworn confession, the perpetrator wrote:

"As a result of having read those web sites and web pages I felt compelled to take action or do something...I decided to express my hatred by sending threatening e-mails against the church."

"Had I not read all the negative web sites and web pages put on the Internet by the individuals who have been hostile...I would not have been influenced and compelled to write and send those threatening and foul messages."

Lermanet.org strongly opposes the neo-Nazi Arnaldo Lerma, his neo-Nazi affiliates and all neo-Nazi movements.

Arnie Lerma: The Anti-Semite

anti-Semite

1. one who discriminates against or who is hostile toward or prejudiced against Jews.
   The word was coined in 1879 from the Greek words "anti", meaning "against" and "Semite", meaning a descendant of Shem (2nd oldest son of Noah). The word was first used by Wilhelm Marr a German agitator, who created it to explain the current anti-Jewish campaigns in Europe. The word came into general use in the past hundred years and encompasses all forms of hostility manifested toward Jews throughout history.

Holocaust Denial

There's a type of "illness" making it's way around the globe today. It's called Holocaust Denial. Holocaust denial is a propaganda movement active in the United States, Canada and Western Europe which seeks to deny the reality of the Nazi regime's systematic mass murder of 6 million Jews in Europe during World War II. The roots of Holocaust denial can be found in the Nazi policy, the "Final Solution to the Jewish Question".

The movement begun in 1979 by Willis Carto's Institute for Historical Review is largely responsible for the growth of Holocaust Denial. Carto's propaganda stated that the alleged murder of six million Jews was a hoax invented by Zionists to make people feel sorry for them.

Carto went so far as to publish a theory that the gas ovens at Auschwitz were really just an industrial facility for converting coal into oil, operated by happy well-fed Jewish prisoners.

Defending Willis Carto

Lerma, a longtime supporter of Carto, has publicly defended him when he has had the chance and published some of Carto's hate propaganda.

Lerma's response to a newspaper article about Willis Carto:

"Once again, with no regard for a decorated war hero's invaluable criticism of hitherto unquestioned WWII propaganda, Carto was condemned for not strongly enough damning the Germans."

Defending Himself

Arnaldo Lerma will tell you that is not an anti-Semite. He will say that he has nothing against Jews. (as long as they don't interfere with his free speech rights to spread hatred and falsehoods on the Internet)

Lermanet.org finds it very alarming that Lerma, a self-proclaimed free speech advocate who uses the Internet to disseminate hatred and anti-religious values, and who has befriended Willis Carto, has never studied the Bible.

Lerma strongly defends his anti-religious values. What causes such a deep seeded hatred and lack of respect for other people's beliefs?

A defense attorney may say that he is confused and has been misguided by the authority figures in his life. A psychiatrist may say that he was not hugged often enough by his mother as a child. And some may say that his behavior is the result of drugs or mind control experiments gone bad.

Lerma has gone so far as saying he is actually Jewish! After Lerma's ""1992 awakening"" he began to meditate, and it was during a meditation that he claims to have had an apparition and met Yahweh, and that because of this he is Jewish.

UAP founder William White is a close friend of Arnie Lerma.

Arnie Lerma: The Anarchist

anarchist

1. one believing or practicing the theory or doctrine that all forms of government are oppressive and undesirable and should be abolished.
2. one who participates in resistance and terrorism against the state or government.
3. possessing a rejection of all forms of coersive control and authority;
   As an anarchist he hates system, organization and uniformity.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Arnaldo Lerma will deny the fact that he is an anarchist. He will say that he supports his government and law enforcement agencies. Maybe he does not cheat on his federal income tax return. Maybe he pays all of the federal, state and local taxes he is supposed to pay. One can only guess.

But a man is judged by his actions, not by winded denials or statements of one's stance. And Lerma's actions speak much much louder than his cries of innocence, actions that reveal his real beliefs and agenda.

Lerma does the following:
- organizes and conducts anti-religious demonstrations
- publishes hate propaganda
- promotes anti-government ideas at conspiracy newsgroups
- poisons the minds of the innocent using flyers/handbills
- conspires with known felons and criminals
- and more.

Lerma Co-Conspirator: William White

Lerma's good friend, one William White, is the founder and PR spokesperson for the Utopian Anarchist Party, the leading US anarchist organization that seeks to destroy governments and prevent law enforcement agencies from doing their jobs.

William White established and maintains a website that includes anarchy materials such as The Terrorist Handbook, an online guidebook with contents like "Buying Explosives and Propellants" and "Techniques for Picking Locks".

Thus far, United States law enforcement agencies have been successful in shutting down White's website when it was broadcast from US Internet companies, but it still remains active. Presently it is broadcast from an Internet company in Asia, where pro-terrorist materials and propaganda are condoned.

White is also a racist and a bigot. He runs a company called "White Homes and Land, LLC" that owns properties in a predominately black Roanoke, VA neighboorhood. White was arrested and convicted of assaulting a concerned citizen who attempted to inform the people in that neighborhood that White was inded a neo-Nazi and a racist.

White's mentor was William Pierce, whose extremist writings inspired Timothy McVeigh, the person responsible for the Oklahoma City bombings. White also praised the juvenile terrorists that performed the Colombine school shootings and was employed by Willis Carto and later employed by Pierce.

In his own words, "I, personally, am nuts -- in fact I would describe my politics as being somewhere on the fruity nutcase wing of politics".

Birds Of A Feather

Arnaldo Lerma, Willis Carto, William White and their
co-conspirators have some things in common:
- they associate with convicted criminals
- they are anti-Semites
- they are neo-Nazis
- they are anti-government
- they promote terrorist notions

Lermanet.org supports the honest efforts of governments and law enforcement agencies to make the world free of crime, hate and terrorism.

Is he a modern day Manchurian Candidate?

Arnie Lerma: The Psychotic

psychotic

1. A person affected by psychosis.

psychosis

1. a severe mental disorder, with or without organic damage, characterized by derangement of personality and loss of contact with reality, causing deterioration of normal social functioning.
2. unable to help or cause anything constructive or worthwhile, being overpowered by the constant definite obsessive desire to destroy or harm.
   Rarely is the psychotic in an institution, but rather it is the psychotic's destructive actions that cause others to become institutionalized.

Abducted By Aliens Or Manchurian Candidate?

In the latter 1970's and the 1980's, Arnie Lerma lived a seemingly normal life, the American dream, complete with a house in the suburbs with roses in the yard. Then, in 1992, something happened to Arnie. His life took a radical change for the worse, the insanity began.

It was around this time that Lerma embarked upon a crusade, a crusade that embodies the destruction of religious values, the dissemination of lies and hate propaganda, violent public demonstrations and an Internet campaign targeting the minds of semi-literate and uneducated readers.

What happened to him? What was it that made him give up the American dream? Was he abducted by aliens? Was he part of some government mind control experiment? Was he under the influence of mind altering drugs?

In 1992, Arnaldo Lerma began having vivid lucid dreams, dreams about vats filled with body parts. These dreams were very disturbing to him, naturally. So much so, that when he told of his dreams to his family and friends, the mother of his child told him he was really wierd, and one time after telling some friends about the dreams they were compelled to leave his house!

Several days after the lucid dreams began, Lerma received a package in the mail, the Communion Newsletter, a newsletter about UFOs and aliens. He began reading the newsletter and on the second page he saw the words "However, I find the reports about vats filled with body parts to be too strange to be believed".

Lerma considered this a strange coincidence, the coincidence of having these vivid dreams of vats filled with body parts and the similar words written in the newsletter four days later. He interpreted it to be a sort of "tap on my shoulder". A voice in his head said,"Hey you, you got something you got to do, it's time for the sleeper to awaken."

This coincidence, the dreams of vats filled with body parts and the UFO newsletter with the same words as in the dreams, is what "woke up" Arnie Lerma. "That was my epiphany!", he proclaimed.

But was it really a coincidence? Had he been abducted by aliens? Was he responding to hypnotic commands implanted in some deep dark corner of his mind by ungodly creatures? Was he a victim of psychiatric mind control experiments?

Vats Filled with Body Parts

As a matter of record, people who claim to have been abducted by aliens often report of having seen vats filled with body parts. Some claim that medical experiments were performed upon them by aliens. Other abductees experience a degeneration of their mental, social, and spiritual well-being. Strange obsessions develop and cause the disruption of normal life and the destruction of personal relationships.

Aliens Made Me Do It!

The causes of Arnie Lerma's psychoses are of special interest to psychiatrists, but one need not be a psychiatrist to understand Lerma. (and who really would want to be a psychiatrist anyway?)

What IS necessary for the lay man to understand is that Arnie Lerma is psychotic, his destructive actions contribute to the ruining of people's lives and that he cannot be trusted.

Since Arnie Lerma's 1992 "awakening" he:
- has had strange obsessions with religions and governments
- has destroyed personal relationships
- no longer leads a normal life
- spends most of his time alone by himself
- has befriended other antisocial persons and groups
- uses the Internet to vilify humanitarian causes
and many other crimes, too many to mention here.

When a person can no longer restrain himself from committing antisocal acts, he begins to go mad. This inability to restrain oneself is common to all psychosis.

Lerma's obsessions with religions, governments, authorities, etc., and his continuing transgressions against them and others, gradually make him more and more insane. He is long since past the point of being able to turn his life around for the better. He can no longer bear the responsibility of his crimes and mistakes.

Someday in the future, possibly on his deathbed as he feebly attempts to make peace with God, we may hear Arnaldo Lerma utter these words, "Aliens made me do it!".
