Anti-Muslim speaking circuit runs through rural Minnesota
StarTribune.com ^ | 4/16/16 | Matt McKinney

One hour into a presentation on the perceived threat posed by Muslim immigrants, St. Cloud car salesman and anti-immigration activist Ron Branstner ramps up his pitch.

The United Nations, he begins, sends Muslim refugees to the United States and to such cities as St. Cloud, “to divide and conquer, get rid of our Constitution, get rid of our way of life and implement it with another way of life called. …”

Branstner pauses for effect, and a few people in the crowd of 100 shout the answer: “sharia law!”

The speaker nods. “Sharia law.”

Branstner’s radical message made up of broad anti-Muslim themes mixed with fears about immigration and the cost of helping refugees is increasingly finding a receptive audience, especially in places where new immigrants are changing the face of the community.

He’s not the only one talking.

Star Tribune requires an excerpt on Free Republic. I wish I could have posted the entire article.

Please read it if you have the time.

I was shocked that this is going on in Minnesota without mass arrests of these patriots.

I would bet contrary comments are vetted for political correctness by a staff commissar before potential deletion. At least they spelled the man’s name right though. And word is getting out rather than it being quashed like has happened in Scandinavian socialist republics with press there.

When whole reports by the federal fail to mention Muslim terrorism in a report about a Muslim terrorist attack why should anyone be surprised?

That’s why I call them “PCdiots”.

"Branstner’s radical message"

This like getting shot and calling yourself the gunman.

"I was shocked that this is going on in Minnesota without mass arrests of these patriots."

Remember what Alex Jones says: "SWAT teams are standing by."

DHS would thrill to do a CVE op using their new military toys...MRAPS, etc.

The FBI kill hostage rescue team would be right beside them, CIA Reapers and Predators above.

The USGOV that imports muslim terrorists as fast as they can, seeding them all over the former Republic, has absolutely no intention of using "homeland" weapons against the very people they import and assign special rights. Those weapons are for Constitutionalists, Patriots, 2A folks, Infidels who resist, etc.

We live in a country where we are instructed not to use the term “radical islam” to describe an ideology whose adherents cut off people’s heads, burn them alive, and blow them up randomly with bombs. However, it apparently is fine to describe a person as a “radical anti-Islamist” for merely speaking.
Insanity.

He’s right. A caller to Wilkow this past week verified it. A former Syrian who came to this country legally in 1976 and he said Americans need to wake up.

the American people are the greatest people on Earth and will welcome you with open arms.” With Muslims around, you have to worry about having your arms blowen off
