Just ran across the headline on WorldNetDaily:

Does government consider you a terrorist?
Report: Officials red flag people concerned about Fed, N. American Union
--Columbia Tribune, Missouri

Since I read WorldNetDaily and am a Freeper, I guess that puts me on the list too.

I'm sure this is not just a Missouri thing. Sounds more like and Obama thing, and am confident this is national.

BTTT!!!!

Ping!

Similar to a thread I pinged yesterday, but still worth looking at IMO.

***“I was going down the list and thinking, ‘Check, that’s me,’ ” he said. “I’m a Ron Paul supporter, check. I talk about the North American union, check. I’ve got the ‘America: Freedom to Fascism’ video loaned out to somebody right now. So that means I’m a domestic terrorist? Because I’ve got a video about the Federal Reserve?”***

B-b-but Obama got elected... everything’s changed, right? Everyone’s supposed to be happy now...

I wonder if this report mentions actual domestic terrorism that has been carried out by leftist groups like Earth First and the ALF.

No, it is entirely focused on those nasty "rightwing extremists." One can only wonder if there is a similar document for Islamic threats or leftist terrorists. I won't hold my breath.

They even say that overzealous displays of patriotism, love of Ronald Reagan, and EBR ownership makes one prone to membership of a militia. Also, membership in SOF or being proud of military service could also make you a member of an evil militia.

Is this where the people who warned you about letting the government have new “anti-terrorism” powers start saying “I TOLD YOU SO”?

[John Leland 1789]

Seems like suspicion of Alex Jones and others is being used by many who are in a state of denial that this is actually happening in America.

The joint letter by Ron Paul, Bob Barr, and Chuck Baldwin to Missouri Governor Nixon is public and available. And enough is out and on myriad reliable web sites to confirm the dangers of the “Fusion Centers” in the various states, and what they are labeling as “terrorist militia.”
