Here is the description of Gun Owners of America in the Bureau of Justice Assistance (DOJ) document...

“Gun Owners of America (GOA): An extremely radical gun-owning group with close ties to the militia movement. It reputedly has about 100,000 members (as opposed to the millions of NRA members). GOA is headed by Larry Pratt, a strong militia supporter who also has close ties to the white-supremacist movement.”

Hmmm... Likely a questionable and biased description of the group (as I said, I'm not familiar with GOA, although I have contributed to Virginia Citizens Defense League, Second Amendment Foundation, and National Rifle Association). I am a gun rights and knife rights advocate...and I do not intend to ignite a flame war on this thread.

From the introduction to the DOJ document, a description of its purpose...

"Investigating Terrorism and Criminal Extremism—Terms and Concepts is a glossary designed primarily as a tool for criminal justice professionals to enhance their understanding of words relating to extremist terminology, phrases, activities, symbols, organizations, and selected names that they may encounter while conducting criminal investigations or prosecutions of members of extremist organizations."

Larry Pratt has close ties with white supremacist groups????????????????????????????????????

Um... okay, on that note, my response to the DOJ is YOU ARE FULL OF BULLSH*T. I’ve known Larry for a LONG time as in I used to sit with him in the Fairfax office getting mailers out for VCDL over 10 years ago. He is not a white supremacist nor condones their actions and anyone that says he is is a flat out liar. The DOJ is no longer a legitimate law enforcement agency, they are nothing more than a propaganda machine spreading deceit.

This is a hit piece by DOJ, nothing more and it’s political. I openly call for an investigation into the agenda behind this bogus bunch of BS from DOJ. You’re being called out DOJ... Prove me wrong you fraking liars.
