Rudolph told the jury he had heard there were missile silos hidden in the Buttes manned by United Nations troops, and he and his men had made two trips to the site in search of them. Asked by prosecutor R. Steven Lapham what he would have done had he found the troops, Rudolph said: "I would have killed them on the spot, no questions asked. They would have been foreign nationals on American soil. That's an attack on the United States."
I think the main reason Islamic Extremist terrorism has been so much more effective than homegrown militia nutball terrorism is that 99.99% of the militia nutballs are so amazingly stupid, incompetent, and lazy compared to the Islamic extremists.
I bet there are hundreds of these plots that fizzle out because they procrastinate, get too busy putting their junked pickup truck on blocks or whatever, and never get around to whatever nefarious anti-government terrorism plot they were going to do.
They expect their little mosquito bites will usher in marshal law. They don't understand history. You don't get revolutions when people are as comfortable in the US as they are now. You can evolution, not revolution.
The Islamic terrorists don't understand it either. They went over the top on 911, and now they will pay.
