DHS Warns Americans That Dropping COVID Restrictions Might Lead To ‘Acts Of Violence’ By ‘Extremists’

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) warned Americans on Monday that as COVID-19 restrictions are dropped, there is an increased risk for “acts of violence” such as mass shootings.

“The United States Remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several actors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories,” the DHS warned.

“As COVID-19 restrictions continue to decrease nationwide, increased access to commercial and government facilities and the rising number of mass gatherings could provide increased opportunities for individuals looking to commit acts of violence to do so, often with little or no warning,” the bulletin says.

“Meanwhile. COVID-19 mitigation measures – particularly COVID-19 vaccine and mask mandates – have been used by domestic violent extremists to justify violence since 2020 and could continue to inspire these extremists to target government, healthcare, and academic institutions that they associate with those measures,” it continues.

The DHS also warned that some extremists are “spreading false and misleading narratives about 5G cellular technology.” (RELATED: New York Rep. Maloney Says Government Is Ready ‘To Give People Their Lives Back,’ Thanks Biden)

Several blue states recently announced the end of certain coronavirus restrictions as cases fall. New Jersey announced the end of its mask mandate for school children, while New York is slated to end its indoor mask mandate Wednesday.

The DHS warned in August that individuals opposed to COVID-19 related restrictions could pose a terrorist threat, warning the risk of attacks were “exacerbated by impacts of the ongoing global pandemic, including grievances over public health safety measures and perceived government restrictions.”

same cr*p in Australia (and UK I think). the globalists always read from the same script:

9 Feb: Guardian: ‘Violent extremists’: Asio boss warns of ‘angry and isolated’ Australians radicalised during pandemic
Mike Burgess says lockdown and vaccination grievances sometimes ‘turned to violence’ as he foreshadows foreign interference in 2022 federal election

new tyranny:

10 Feb: news.com.au: Covid vaccine: New classification of being ‘up to date’ in Australia
Changes will be made to what it means to be ‘up to date’ or ‘overdue’ with Covid vaccinations in Australia.
by Ashleigh Gleeson
The Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) released its latest advice on Thursday.
Under the changes, which were welcomed by national cabinet and accepted by the government, a person must have completed all the doses recommended for their age and individual health needs to be deemed ‘up to date’.

ATAGI currently recommends that anyone aged 16 years and older receive a booster dose three months after their primary course.
The nation’s vaccine advisory body also recommended defining anyone who had waited longer than six months to get their booster shot since their primary course “overdue”.
The new advice will not apply to international travellers and there will be no three-dose mandate introduced nationally, with the exception of aged care workers...

“ATAGI has noted that this advice is provided for the management of the Covid-19 pandemic here in Australia and does not cover the vaccination requirements relating to international border settings,” a statement from Health Minister ***Greg Hunt said...

ATAGI recommended the new advice be implemented by the end of March 2022 to allow “sufficient” time to implement the changes and take into account any impact to a person’s Covid immunisation certificate...

Severely immunocompromised people aged five years and older will require a third primary dose to remain ‘up to date’.

[A]s COVID-19 restrictions are dropped, there is an increased risk for “acts of violence” such as mass shootings.

The risk DHS politicizes COVID-19 is 100%

Well, Covid lock downs didn’t prevent democrat party support for Black Lives Matter or Antifa. Removal of said restrictions would only have an effect on law abiding freedom living people.

I wonder why the DHS is so worried about law abiding freedom loving people? Who are the real fascists?

What are they smoking over at Home Land Security?

“.....The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) warned Americans on Monday that as COVID-19 restrictions are dropped, there is an increased risk for “acts of violence” such as mass shootings. ....”

I guess stopping mask mandates means we need firearms confiscation. I would never have made the connection unless the government pointed it out to me.

Do they really think people are that stupid? yes, they do.

GMAFB. “Violence”? You mean, like burning down a pawn shop with the owner inside? Shoving women off subway platforms? Ramming a Christmas parade in an SUV? Assaulting a federal courthouse and trying to burn it down? That kind of violence?

It's ALWAYS been about control and not about the "science."

DHS just spilled the beans.

They're as stupid as Shitshow Joe!

There likely will be mass shootings in the future. They might well be in States that lift Covid restrictions. And then DHS can say “ See!?!”

Pretty clever, in an evil genius sorta way.

Look on the bright side. If Brandon resigns, is impeached or Article 25d, Harris will be the first female POTUS, and Hillary will have missed her moment. OK. That’s the only bright side I can think of.

Are they simply nuts or are they realizing the narrative has fallen apart?

Interesting that they warn and are worried about “acts of violence by extremists,” instead of taking the other path.

The path of humble celebration.

Instead of an attitude shift of optimism ...they continue to hold on to the draconian doom. Instead of announcing endemic and less severity they continue to hold onto the fear narrative.

It really is interesting to observe. The only reason for fear of violence is because the government refuses to stop being a ‘karen.’

All you morons here who are for these restrictions...

Do you see why the liberals call for them? The idiotic rationale for keeping them?

Do you now see its all been about controlling you? Imprisoning you in your own homes, as well as destroying the economy, and with it, the middle class? Turning people from self sufficient to wiping out millions of jobs and shifting people from middle class to poor?
