This memo is unnerving to me, too, but given recent developments, I'm not surprised that the government is paying attention to the super-far-to-the-right fringe (white supremacists, mostly, as the memo says).
Does that mean I'm not bothered by this? Of course not -- but I can't say I didn't see it coming that the government would be aware of the potential risk here. Hell, Glenn Beck has been talking publicly about it for months. This boils down to an acknowledgment of something we already knew from a group we don't particularly like (to put it mildly for many).
It is not a joke. And Texas DPS (state troopers) has told DHS to go to Hell.
If we complain does this mean we’ll get on “their list”?
I DAMN WELL HOPE I MAKE THE LIST! If I do I would feel so DAMN proud I amost feel like I won the CMH!
There have been a lot more killings by illegal aliens. There should be great warnings against illegal aliens.
