The Feb. 20 report called "The Modern Militia Movement" mentions such red flags as.....talk of conspiracy theories, such as the plan for a superhighway linking Canada to Mexico...

I think that's fair. Idiots spouting conspiracy theories should be identified for relentless public mockery.

"I was going down the list and thinking, 'Check, that's me,'" he said. "I'm a Ron Paul supporter, check. I talk about the North American union, check. I've got the 'America: Freedom to Fascism' video loaned out to somebody right now. So that means I'm a domestic terrorist?"

Nope, but 20 Ameros says you're a little bit crazy.

Lt. John Hotz of the Missouri State Highway Patrol said the report comes from publicly available, trend data on militias. It was compiled by the Missouri Information Analysis Center, a "fusion center" in Jefferson City that combines resources from the federal Department of Homeland Security and other agencies. The center, which opened in 2005, was set up to collect local intelligence to better combat terrorism and other criminal activity, he said.

So basically, the federal government TOLD them that third party voters were all terrorists.

At least someone in D.C. if finally starting to listen.

We've got a hardcore Ron Paul guy here at my college.

He actually posted on Fark that he carries a gun around campus all the time. I'm debating if I should be a douche and turn him in. He calls me anti-freedom for mocking Ron Paul (mocking Ron Paul is not in the constitution, after all).

If I turn him in, then clearly, I make him right about me being anti-freedom.

If I don't, well... he could be a terrorist!

you just might be a terrorist.

If no one knows how to pronounce your first name, including your own mother...

you just MIGHT be a terrorist.

I, like many farkers, agree with a lot of Ron Paul's ideas. Mt good buddy and his girlfriend, on the other hand, are full Paultards. No offense to them, but they have gone off the deep end. They are buying guns for home defense, for when the rebellion/dissolution of the state happens. They are convinced that everyone in the Obama Administration (they hated Bush too, so I give them some political credit) is just a "Keynesian Idiot" that is destroying the economy, and only they, the mighty Austrian Economists/Paultards, know the path to wealth. They are both college educated. Their degrees are not in the field of economics, business, or even government. Recently I asked them to travel overseas with me, but they think the government isn't issuing passports because they don't want people to leave the country. When I showed them they were wrong they changed the subject. I really agree with many of Ron Paul's ideas, but I have not gone full Paultard. Does anyone else have the same problem?

Some of us are crazier than others, but the time when we get to say "farking told you so" is coming. Unfortunately, the saner amongst us really don't want to say that. We'd love to be wrong. We'd love it if the world and the government and the powers that be aren't what we think they are. We just know that's not true.

If you're too dense, stupid or irrationally optimistic to see the pieces falling into place, there's nothing I can do. If you'd rather spend your time mocking us than actually considering the possibility that you're wrong and we're right, oh well.

Hmmm. For eight solid years, we've been told that racial profiling is necessary to fight terrorism.

Now suddenly that law enforcement wants to use non-racial profiling to identify probable right-wing terrorists (who are openly espousing armed rebellion), it's suddenly wrong.

Interesting.

I mean, I agree. Not every right-winger is a terrorist. And it's totally unfair to let 400,000-500,000 bad apples spoil the whole barrel. But we do have to protect national security, after all.

Ron Paul TV Ad: Immigration (new window)

"End birth right citizenship."

"No More Student VISAs from Terrorist Nations."

"I'm Ron Paul, and I approved this message.

So it's okay to overturn the 14th Amendment because a few dark colored people cross the border, and it's okay to deny student VISA from an entire nation and label to that entire nation as terrorist because of a few hijackers.

But the idea of checking spotting trends within extremist militia groups based on their behavior and advocacy? Well, that's just uncalled for!
Apparently it's okay to treat someone as a terrorist based on the nation that they were born, but it's not okay to suspect that someone might be a terrorist based on their actual beliefs.

================================

You know, it's always made me laugh... and cry... that republicans rail against far-left whackos who spout 9-11 conspiracy theories or those whackos (which side? Maybe both?) who spout the 'we didn't land on the moon' crap...

Yet they themselves hold that Hussein was involved in 9/11, that global warming doesn't exist, or that evolution is untrue.

All those have mountains of evidence in one direction, very little in the other, yet they cling to it.

That's the definition of a conspiracy theory!

FTFA: "There are a lot of third parties out there, and none of them express any violence. In fact, if you join the Libertarian Party, one of the things you sign in your membership application is that you don't support violence as a means to any ends."

So I assume that means that there are no gun owners within this group? Why do I find that hard to believe?

Neal, who has a Ron Paul bumper sticker on his car, said the next time he is pulled over by a police officer, he won't know whether it's because he was speeding or because of his political views.

Hint: It's probably because you were speeding. You were caught breaking the rules. Deal with it.

"If a police officer is pulling me over with my family in the car and he sees a bumper sticker on my vehicle that has been specifically identified as one that an extremist would have in their vehicle, the guy is probably going to be pretty apprehensive and not thinking in a rational manner," Neal said. "And this guy's walking up to my vehicle with a gun."

Yes, police officers carry guns. Someone call Ric Romero. Also, they have a tendency to shoot unarmed civilians in their cars for their bumper stickers all the damned time.

"It's giving the makeup of militia members and their political beliefs," Hotz said of the report. "It's not saying that everybody who supports these candidates is involved in a militia. It's not even saying that all militias are bad."

Seeing as how the second amendment refers to militia's specifically, the average Paultard should take that label as a badge of honor.

Yup. To the conservative, and especially the Paultard:

Racial profiling = okay!!!

Profiling based on observed connections to terrorist activities = "ZOMG!!! This is so wrong!!! The gubmint is teh ebul!!!"farking cons. You're just ridiculous, and your hypocrisy knows no bounds.
