Primed to fight the government (From Drudge)
Washington Post ^ | 5/21/16 | Kevin Sullivan

Posted on 05/22/2016 5:52:04 PM PDT by Celerity

Law enforcement officials and the watchdog groups that track the self-styled “patriot” groups call them anti-government extremists, militias, armed militants or even domestic terrorists. Some opponents of the largely white and rural groups have made fun by calling them “Y’all Qaeda” or “Vanilla ISIS.”

I’m not aware of any serious effort by citizens to somehow “fight the government”.

Except for that whole "Trump" thing.

Sounds like they may be signaling a false flag October surprise attack by "white terrorists" in order to swing the election to Hillary. That's pretty cynical, I am usually not conspiratorial. But then Obama did do the Fast and Furious thing.

And also,

as a guy with some experience in keeping secrets - If Hillary is seriously going to “disclose UFO information” (Which she won’t.. she just wants Bernie’s youtube groupies) then she is going to do it under the pretense of violence.

She’ll put people on the door of police stations around the country in a week. She’s a violent harbinger of death. She will do anything to seek out her last satisfaction in life : Watching people die.

Like her “debarked the plane under sniper fire” bit. You know she actually believed that, right ? Her mind is FULL of violence, and she believes her own lies. She craves violence and must do anything in her power to ignite the world.

I don’t know if he got a felony out of it but he did get arrested and charged.

I guess he has street cred now.

Whenever the legislators endeavor to take away and destroy the property of the people, or to reduce them to slavery under arbitrary power, they put themselves into a state of war with the people, who are thereupon absolved from any further obedience. ~ John Locke 1690

Kevin Sullivan was also the one who covered the Oregon Wildlife Refuge standoff, the one that ended in what was later shown by a car video to be an AMBUSH by government shooters, resulting in the unprovoked death of a land rights activist.

This is the WaPo photo that accompanied the article following that shootout and death:

So **Kevin Sullivan** is sort of a regular writer for the "dangerous American citizen" narrative.

So I guess we're probably running a Militia Website, here..?

What does everyone here think ?

It started small and nobody expected what came afterwards. Somebody had shot a leftist politician dead in their driveway. Stories of their corruption had been around throughout their long political career. Naturally, no charges had ever been filed against them.
Two days after their funeral another equally corrupt politician was killed. A knife and a public restroom. No suspects, or rather, far too many to narrow things down to one. Most blamed the Right. Some blamed the Left. It didn't matter, dead was dead.
After that, kidnappings, car crashes, explosions, house fires and more shootings. It was happening across the nation with more and more frequency. The anger that had festered for years amongst the citizenry exploded in a directed frenzy. The political class, for the first time in modern history, was truly afraid for their lives.

Just fiction and an overactive imagination, folks...just fiction.

“No taxation without representation”

In 2010 Pelosi threatened to pass ACA using something called “Deem it passed”. The move was not used, but the fact that it exists and lawmakers are ok with it also absolves us from paying taxes.

Need look no further for the lies and BS. THEY are the Leftist Extremist who find danger in this. I'm not a joiner. Never have been. But I sympathize to a point with any patriot. Lots of Vets have given their blood to allow our freedom. Those in DC who seek to destroy that are teasing the dragons tail. The reflex will not be a group of "patriots", but it will be a bunch of Americans who influence state government. States are already telling the Rogue Fed Gov agencies they will not comply. That is how it should be. Obozo will soon be gone (not soon enough) and I pray that the November election kicks the ComDems to the curb. May this be the new beginning. God Bless the U.S., God Bless Texas, God Bless your family and mine.

>>Law enforcement officials call them dangerous, delusional and sometimes violent, and say that their numbers are growing amid a wave of anger at the government that has been gaining strength since 2008, a surge that coincided with the election of the first black U.S. president and a crippling economic recession.<<

That's right, whitey hating blacky. Patriot movement gaining strength when the first black president took office.

What a crock of crap. It has nothing to do with the half black creep. It has everything to do with a ferrule behemoth trampling on freedoms, monumental fiscal mismanagement, gubbamint spying on it's citizens, using the IRS to attack Americans during an election cycle.

Last but not least, the gubbamint utilizing a complicit American media as a propaganda tool. Americans are “FED” up.

What seem interesting was it mentions the followers of these groups on the Internet.
A new enemy.

I think you are more likely to see acts of terrorism by roving bands of SJWs then any right wing groups.
