The threat against America and Americans isn't ISIS

The republican party wants you to believe that because the real threat to us happens to be a group they courted heavily, the Tea Party. There is another threat; these so-called Sovereign Citizens. This group of people are dangerous and need to be stopped.
Have you heard one just one Republican speak against the sovereign movement? No you haven't because they support Sovereign Citizens as well. Look how they supported Cliven Bundy and his armed thugs... This is the threat against America. Not ISIS.

ISIS is a pain in the ass, maybe. We need to treat them in the same manner as any criminal organization, as a POLICE matter not a military threat.

I've said this before, but for years, Americans have been told the insurgents are on the Left.

Folks like the one you speak are may be the real threat.

And you are right, Terrorism may be better treated as a criminal matter!

was a sovereign citizen or has strong ties to them. much like the folks that killed the cop in Arizona awhile back. You all remember when at the beginning of the Obama administration there was a report saying the threats to America will come from lone wolf right wing radicals? That report was completely chastised by the right wing folks. Well what do you know they were right in their report.
