.- According to a Homeland Security Report distributed to law enforcement organizations, abortion opponents are as great a threat to national security in the immediate future as white supremacists.
The nine-page document was sent to police and sheriff's departments across the country on April 7 under the headline, "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment." The report is unclassified, but is accompanied by a warning that says it contains information that may be exempt from public release under the Freedom of Information Act.
The report was prepared by the Extremism and Radicalization Branch of the Department of Homeland Security and claims it was coordinated with the FBI.
Rightwing extremists, the document says, have capitalized on the election of the first African American president, and are focusing their efforts to recruit new members, mobilize existing supporters, and broaden their scope and appeal through propaganda, but they have not yet turned to attack planning.
Nevertheless, according to the report, the combination of a prolonged economic downturn, the election of the first African American President and the return of many veterans with "combat skills" could create an environment similar to the early 90's, which lead to the Oklahoma City bombing.
The report describes "Rightwing extremism" broadly as those groups, movements, and adherents that are primarily hate-oriented (based on hatred of particular religious, racial or ethnic groups), and those that are mainly antigovernment, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority, or rejecting government authority entirely. It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration.
Under the title Revisiting the 1990s, the report claims that paralleling the current national climate, rightwing extremists during the 1990s exploited a variety of social issues and political themes to increase group visibility and recruit new members.
Prominent among these themes were the militia movements opposition to gun control efforts, criticism of free trade agreements (particularly those with Mexico), and highlighting perceived government infringement on civil liberties as well as white supremacists longstanding exploitation of social issues such as abortion, inter-racial crimes, and same-sex marriage.
The report is provided to federal, state, local, and tribal counterterrorism and law enforcement officials so they may effectively deter, prevent, preempt, or respond to terrorist attacks against the United States.
Sure. You would be welcome. But more importantly, pray the Rosary with the people there. :-)
Anti abortion activists are fighting a program that, by overwhelming numbers, slaughters negro babies more than white. How does that convert into White Supremacy????
Time to start calling these people what they are and pointing it out! Obama is a radical socialist and Napolitano is a dangerous left wing kook! We can do "name calling" too.
They can call us anything they want. We want our country back.
My friend, what we see here is the natural progression of bureaucracy, and the politicization that inevitably befalls all these cabinet departments. We should eliminate at least nine of these cabinet departments as they are redundancies and nothing more than federal statist usurpation of state’s rights and individual liberties- and a big government artifice for the confiscation of tax dollars.

"...Any weapons we resort to must be "real" weapons not pistols. i.e. Rifles and shotguns. Due to concerns of re-supply (you have to plan for a long battle) such weapons should be limited to very small number of different rounds."
"if it is decided to fight, be prepared to fight, bring a backpack, entrenching tool, tent, and other equipment of an Infantrymen. You will need it for Bush and his supporters decides it is better to fight than to accept the will of the people, the fight to overthrow them will be a long fight."
Nothing about those who listen to talk radio?
I guess they are saving that one for later.
Mentioning just one name should settle that.
Margaret Sanger.
“Homeland Security Report equates ‘abortion opponents’ with white supremacists”
And the supreme irony about that is we all know that M. Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, was a racist.
“This is very scary....Stalinist?”
The liberals are paranoid Stalinists! They are terrified of opposition and will do all that is necessary to suppress it.
You are correct. My “weapon” is ready.
"Christian men with guns who [gasp] want to hurt us..."
I hope you appreciate the power of praying the rosary!
Archbishop Fulton Sheen said, "The rosary is the book of the blind, where souls see and there enact the greatest drama of love the world has ever known; it is the book of the simple, which initiates them into mysteries and knowledge more satisfying than the education of other men; it is the book of the aged, whose eyes close upon the shadow of this world, and open on the substance of the next. The power of the rosary is beyond description."
How to Pray the Rosary
Welcome Home!
The liberals are our KGB nowadays. I will not be surprised if we do not hear from Keith the hater on MSNBC that conservatives need to go to GITMO,lol. And that is not a laughing matter.
I would love to see the GOP ask for Congressional investigations and testimony times on this very issue.
I am a terrorist because I am against abortion, illegal immigration, low taxes, etc....
Am I already on that list by simple virtue of posting on this forum?
In no particular order: Yes and yes.
Obama’s lucky to be ‘here’. Like her or not, it was his WHITE mother who chose to have him, and in a time when promiscuity was ‘sinful’ and inter-racial relationships were frowned upon.
[[Rightwing extremists, the document says, have capitalized on the election of the first African American president]]
I am sick, sick, sick of reading this. He is not Afro American and he is half white, it is NOT his color we hate.
So it’s a crime to be a devout Catholic now?
