.- 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.
How ironic, since abortion proponents (or pushers) have much more in common with white supremacists. What a sadistic twist from our own Homeland Security.
You should probably start carrying bail money.
Are the Catholic O-voters happy now?
.
absolutely - they aren’t anti-abortion,
they’re “social justice” people, ie, they worship the religion of secular liberalism, and they just happen to be from Catholic families.
(Actually, I am supposed to be going to a DHS Science and Technology Conference at the Reagan Building -- about 2 blocks from the WH -- in about a month. Think they'll let me park in the garage downstairs? **smirks**)
If they suggest “satellite parking” in Fort Marcy Park, fake the flu.
Flashback to the FBI infiltrator who reported Bill Ayers et al calmly discussing death camps for the 25 million Americans who would never capitulate to communist rule.
The groups named in this report need to sue the USG (and the analyst in particular!) for defamation. Make the USG justify its reasoning behind that report.
We need to start a grassroots movement that is visible and loud. If we're to be labeled extremists, let's give them a taste of our extremism. The red envelope campaign was quite successful - more than 2million of these were sent to the White House. How can we apply that success to get the attention of our representatives?
Oh, my friend, we're still on the dock. The River Styx boarman is just beginning to make his way towards us. Boarding will begin shortly. You are seeing only the fringes of hell. Imagine what awaits us.
As college students, the Clintons visited the USSR. At that time, the country was closed to Americans and I have often wondered how they managed to get visas. They have been waiting in the wings for their big moment. No doubt Hitlary has whispered sweet nothings in O's ear.
Buckle your seatbelts; we're in for a rough ride.

YOU are an honorable man. This gang of thugs at the helm are the problem.
Thanks for the ping!
Abortion is the true hate crime.
WHERE do these D-rat libs get all the OPIUM they are smoking, to write stuff like this?
