to push them to do disastrous things to innocent citizens. We've seen plenty of that. I wonder how big a population the militants and supremacists are at this point in time. The last number I saw was a shocker. By now, I wouldn't even be surprised how the numbers have grown.

These radio programs that run 24/7 have probably done more harm to the U.S. than we realize. They have pushed the freedom of speech to the limit and there's nothing we can do about it. Their ridiculous ideas and theories have dumbed down the citizenry to the point where they will believe and follow the likes of Cruz, Rubio and Trump. In fact, Trump's cussing and hints of bigger conspiracies support their fears and they eat it up.

To get votes for Republicans, just bring out the threat of Obama taking their guns or putting them in FEMA camps and the guns/ammo are out and at the ready.
