According to friends in the neo-Nazi community, Von Brunn had become increasingly unstable and upset in recent weeks as he fell under hard times. "He said his Social Security had been cut and that he was barely making it," one acquaintance told the Washington Post. "He felt it was the direct result of someone in Washington looking at his Web site." In previous years, Von Brunn had supported himself largely by selling racist copies of a racist newspaper, the Post reports, and had made cryptic references to going out "with his boots on," his ex-wife said.

I've heard this in California too. The explanation is that CA offered a program of "Supplemental Security" benefits that was paid to SSI recipients in addition to their federal benefits but included in the same monthly check. http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/11125.html

Due to the recent budget crisis CA has had to slash this program leading many recipients to complain that the "Social Security Benefits" had been cut.
Perhaps there was a similar program in the state where this nut-job lived.
