WASHINGTON – The FBI is warning police across the country that an anti-government group's call to remove governors from office could provoke violence.
 
The group called the Guardians of the free Republics wants to "restore America" by peacefully dismantling parts of the government, according to its Web site. It sent letters to governors demanding they leave office or be removed.
 
Investigators do not see threats of violence in the group's message, but fear the broad call for removal of top state officials could lead others to act out violently. At least two states beefed up security in response...

"restore America" by peacefully dismantling parts of the government

Words and ideas are apparently dangerous.....

.....But the truly radical, militant left is now tolerated main-stream society (or so they would like you believe).

Whatever it takes ... let it happen to get the U.S. away from the Obomination and his HATRED of America and desire to destroy America.

We ARE having a political coo. Some representatives are VIOLATING the will of the people. This is also called tyranny. The bribery and corruption is unprecedented.

If they ‘don’t see threats of violence’ then what’s the big stink? It ‘might’ lead others to violence? Poppycock and excuses. Are they going to go after Rush for saying we should get rid of the b*stards. Vote them out. I don’t like this trend at all.

So are actions.

It's quite okay for union thugs to intimidate white voters when Obama was running for President but any HINT of that on the opposite side is exaggerated and squashed down.

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Back off FBI, the socialist administration has and is continueing to usurp the authority of we, the people.

Wasn’t there an article a couple of days ago saying that the state government in one of the southwestern states went on the alert due to a warning of some sort from the FBI to the governors?

I suspect this is chiefly another effort on the part of the FBI to increase tension and anxiety and to villainize conservatives.

Is it now a crime to ask a governor to step down? I thought that Obama and the NY Times just did precisely that to Governor Patterson a while ago—and then pressured him in various ways until he agreed not to run against Andrew Cuomo.

Is it illegal to write negative letters to politicians now? They already said there were no threats in the letters.

Wouldn’t want to be an FBI Agent right now, or Secret Service Agent either for at least a few more years. I wonder if any of them are Oathkeepers.
