So, the lesson to be learned? Significant numbers of the folks involved were actually gummint employees.
Did you hear about the three guys busted the other day for planning to bomb some immigrant Somalis? First thing to cross my mind was that at least one of the three was gummint infiltrator.
Not that I would ever plot against our gummint but I suspect we’re I to have an “acquaintance” suggest such a thing I do believe the at the first opportunity I would put a round through his head. Think about it. Better than even chance he is a gummint agent. Especially if he is the one agitating.

I’m sure that there have been plenty of Democrat infiltrators working for the government to “expose” the tea party groups as “terrorists” but no one took the bait.
However there have been instances where Democrat anarchists plotted to firebomb and kidnap at the 2008 GOP convention and it never rose above being treated as a “local” story and those convicted claimed they were set up by the government.
