Typical really, the left routinely accuses the good guys of things they are guilty of themselves. They project their way of dealing with the world onto other people as if we think the same way they do.

Still makes me mad that the Clinton Administration went after those groups like they did. They claim they got rid of them all but what they actually did was send those groups more underground making infiltration impossible. I’m talking about those few groups that really are a danger to all. Now in order to stop them we have to wait for them to attack.

...a liberal administration led by a black president...

Just can’t let that black thingy go can they? All of us extremist are racist dontchyaknow. That’s the sole reason for people reacting against this government. NOT the fact that we are watching a dictator in the making with a tyrannical government body supporting him. Nah.....couldn’t be anything like that.

What concerns me is that some of them seem to have gone *underground*. The deleted all of their You Tube videos, some even shut down their forums and said all communication will be done off the internet. I asked what was going on at one of the forums and they asked for my phone number, name and address and said that was the only way they discuss anything.
I said no, went back a few days later and the website was gone. Closed until further notice or something like that.

“Conspiracy theories about a secret Mexican plan to reclaim the Southwest are also growing amid the public debate about illegal immigration.”

It’s not a theory.

If any of this rings bells, maybe it’s because our newest Supreme Court justice is a member (albeit the part that has been cleaned up in the past few years to look more respectable) as well as the mayor of Los Angeles.

The prototype separatist bill, supported by Obama and the progressive socialist Democrats, is already moving through Congress and may become law as early as September. The “Akaka Bill” would give Native Hawaiians the right to form a separatist government in Hawaii, supposedly because the sovereign “indigenous” government of the Kingdom of Hawaii was illegally overthrown by the United States (actually not true, but truth doesn’t stand in the way of these measures).

http://akaka.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Issues.Home&issue=Akaka%20Bill&content_id=24

Chicanos (La Raza de Bronze) are then poised to make the same arguments for creation of a Chicano homeland in the Southwest and California, on the ground, that like Hawaiians, they too are “indigenous Native Americans” and had their land taken from them by force in the Mexican-American War. They will point to the Akaka Bill as precedent and demand they be given the same treatment. If the government says no, they will then say they are being denied equal protection with other groups being given special rights as natives. (How to turn the Bill of Rights upside down.)

Funny- at least some of these militias in the early 90s included a number of black Vietnam vets.They tended to be respected for their weapons knowhow and did weapons training.

Where they get the race angle, I have no idea.< P>The most basic social/political division in the world of the American Left is between perceptive, intelligent caring Liberals, and racists. Everyone in America falls decisively into one of those two categories. "Racist" can be substituted for every other epithet in the Liberal vocabulary for non-Liberals and is used as an intensifier for all the descriptions and names they use to describe non-Liberals. "Racist" simply means "not us" to Liberals.

There was/is nothing ‘right’ about the destruction of that federal building in OK.

Why are the union thugs out assaulting citizens that are invited by their elected representatives ‘town hall’ meetings not considered ‘militias’ that need to be ‘watched’?

The militias formed partly because of Ruby Ridge and Waco but the fuel for the continued development, the veritable explosion of the phenomenon was the pervasive fear that the Clinton government was going to do a total gun confiscation. The libs of the time were all discussing that goal and were promising to finally accomplish it, not in big speeches, but in their publications and their conventions. It reached a peak in September of 1994 and began to slack off just a bit in October as the mood began to change as people began to think the Republicans would gain in November.It evanesced when the Republicans got control of Congress in Newt's revolution.

Through the 2nd half of 1993 and up to the 1994 election the price of military grade used rifles increased steadily as they became harder and harder to find. An M1 Garand that could be bought for $250=300 in 1992 was hard to find at $1500 in September 1994. In December I saw several for under $400.

Brace yourselves for some kind of provocative “incident.”

That is my fear as well. I think the thugs will manufacture another crisis so they will think they have an excuse to try to push more gun control and to curtail our freedoms even more.

Kudos for your research and links.

The fact remains that Texas and the lands to to the West were ceded to Texas from Mexico by treaty. The Republic of Texas later sold or gave the lands further West to the US.

Mexico has no legal claim on any of that land.

"...Mexico has no legal claim on any of that land..."

They don't let facts get in the way. All across the West and on University campuses are folks who are absolutely certain that the land under their feet belongs to the "brown race", and that there will be no justice until their dream is realized. Their dream involves the death or expulsion of those that don't have the correct skin tone.

The sad irony is that the ATF and SPLC act so afraid of the Militias, when it reality they are more anti-American than most militias.

I believe some years back the SPLC was found to be discriminating against blacks in their hiring practices. The SPLC is nothing, but a marxist communist cesspool deluge in my opinion.

They will claim those lands by right of reconquest, that is the plan, they moved in Americans moved out ergo the lands now belong to Mexico.

Illegal aliens are an invading army with no right to be here or claim citizenship in our country for them or their children.
