“God bless you, J.T. You will be fiercely missed”

A message posted on their website today read, “God bless you, J.T. You will be fiercely missed:”

http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2012/05/03/477028/border-vigilante-group-on-extremist-reportedly-involved-in-mass-murder-suicide-god-bless-you/

In general, the theories surrounding Ready’s death follow a few expected narratives: that Ready was killed by drug smugglers; that Jews running the federal government had come calling; even that Ready was acting in self-defense when he was killed. Whatever the flavor of conspiracy, it’s not surprising that Ready’s death should garner such a response. He was a darling of the movement – a well-spoken and husky presence on the border, almost always armed as if he were going to war.

This hate-filled militia is just another product of the Bush pResidency's dishonest pro-war movement. No one would be wanting to emulate Bush's "smoke 'em out" attitude if he had been impeached or properly Nixonized.

Dress-up is fun! Then someone goes and shoots a toddler and people get all worked up. Conservatism sure is confusing.

I would think if it is not a government program, but just a bunch of wanna-bees the government should prohibit them from insinuating they are such.. It looks quite official to me..

Non-Governmental Organization (NGO)
The USBG is a Civilian, All-Volunteer, registered Desert Search & Rescue Group, committed to securing the American Border from Narco Terrorists and Human traffickers.


In other words, a self-appointed goon squad.

Their little badge looks almost official, doesn't it? Some people are confused about who these morons are, I imagine.
