No, check the earlier threads about this; the website is run by a talk show host in Texas, name of Sam Kennedy.

Say, it occurs to me that MAYBE this whole "threat" is a total disinfo campaign, and the reason it's being pushed is because the Feds want to draw attention away from the poverty stricken young members of the rural Hutaree --- who the nation at large does NOT seem particularly afraid of.

Have you read the other threads about Sam Kennedy?

He's real SCARY, too; NOT.

I was referring to the kooks who named their group the “Guardians of the Free Republic.” Doesn’t it strike you as strange these crackpots should invoke the name of the world’s premiere site for liberty? Sounds like another Dem smear plot to me.

Clive Boustred is an even better name to associate with this, although Sam Kennedy is certainly the front man in this stunt.

Guardians of the Free Republics: An Astroturf Militia - Mother Jones

Turns out goftr.com and guardiansofthefreerepublics.com are registered to one Clive Boustred of Soquel, California- a British-educated former South African soldier with an apparent knack for "anti-terrorist warfare," computer consulting, and conspiracy theorizing. The sites - and the "group" - appear not to have existed before he registered them, about two months ago.

Even as conspiracy mavens go, Boustred is a fascinating study. He's prominent on YouTube as a decrier of Jesuit, Masonic, Rothschild, and Fed conspiracies. As with many such folks, his anti-courts, anti-government anger appears to have originated with a personal legal beef - a weird story involving an ex-wife, infidelity, a restraining order, an "assassination attempt," and chocolate-chip cookies. He appears to have Astroturfed a number of other "companies" and organizations - Liberty for Life, Copper Cards, Strategize.com, and InfoTelesys.com.
