The FBI considers someone who displays a particular emblem representing the Second Amendment as a possible "Militia Violent Extremist," according to a new report from Project Veritas.

The organization set up by James O'Keefe in 2010 as a nonprofit journalism enterprise to facilitate undercover reporting said it had obtained from a whistleblower an FBI document "which shows how the Bureau classifies American citizens it deems to be potential 'Militia Violent Extremists.'"

"The FBI cites symbols, images, phrases, events, and individuals that agents should look out for when identifying alleged domestic terrorists," the report explains about the document marked for "FBI Internal Use Only."

"Of note, under the 'Symbols' section, is a prominent citation of the Second Amendment, where it explains that 'MVEs justify their existence with the Second Amendment, due to the mention of a 'well regulated Militia,' as well as the right to bear arms,'" the report confirms.

And under the category, "Commonly Referenced Historical Imagery and Quotes," the FBI lists Revolutionary War images like the Gadsden Flag and the Betsy Ross Flag.

The report explained under the "Common Phrases and References" section, Ashli Babbitt is cited as a person that MVEs consider to be a martyr.

Do they by chance have examples of any widespread violence by these groups?

[If You Want It Fixed - Fix It]

Like the Babylon Bee said, the FBI turned itself into the FBI as one wsy or the other, they are all extremists in the dang place.

Hey, hey!
Ho, ho!
Betsy Ross has got to go!

😂😂😂😂✌

I am probably screwed as I still have Trump stickers on my car.

No need to worry, this is not at all comparable to the paramilitary Nazi Brown Shirts Hitler created over 100 years ago to provide him with political power. (/sarc)

Thirty years ago the left MSM tried to brand reenactor groups that portrayed Southerners as “racist militia” groups. They used pictures of living history programs over articles of the KKK and attacks on blacks. The most egregious was when in ‘92 a group representing Confederate Cavalry doing living history at Kennesaw Mountain were pictured by the Atlanta Journal Constitution with an article about the KKK. The FBI is just parroting the SPLC and progressive actions against any organization that has a differing opinion or historical background.

Soon you will be suspect if you fly an American Flag. Oh, and watch out with those Vet pins, remember every Vet is a potential extremist.

[Iceclimber58]

I suppose I should not fly my Sons of Liberty aka Flag of Rebellious Stripes any more.

[IYAS9YAS]

They should be more worried about the quiet men and women who don’t display these things.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Someone ask those FBI pixies what the BLM emblem “justifies”. Looting Walmart and killing cops as well as slapping paint on any patch of asphalt they can find?

[DoughtyOne]

Boy, all that’s missing is the goose-stepping.

[I want the USA back]

First they identify the enemy. Then they demonize him. Then they encourage the public to hate him. Then, and only then, can they start the process of purging the country of the enemy who they have duly identified and turned into an object of hate.

[Major Matt Mason]

Also, quoting the founders of this country is a no-no in their book. Pretty easy to see that Obama and his merry band of SJW's is behind a lot of this garbage.

[Red in Blue PA]

The FBI is on the wrong side of every issue.

Nobody takes them seriously, nor should they.

[WVNan]

OH my....I’m a reenactor at an early American village. Have been for many years. Guess I might as well fight the Revolution again.

[Savage Beast]

The Gadsden Flag is a revered icon sacred to the American Revolution. Anyone who defames it defames the Revolution, the USA, and the American People.

[Pollard]

The Constitution and Bill of Rights. Extremist documents.

[Mlheureux]

Then the US Constitution is a terrorist symbol?

[BobinIL]

If Trump is reelected in 2024 the very first thing he needs to do is completely disband the FBI.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State …
