Homeland Security Report Warns Of Rising Right-Wing Extremism
Edited on Tue Apr-14-09 07:09 PM by mudesi

Right-wing extremists in the United States are gaining new recruits by exploiting fears about the economy and the election of the first black U.S. president, the Department of Homeland Security warned in a report to law enforcement officials.

The April 7 report, which Reuters and other news media obtained on Tuesday, said such fears were driving a resurgence in "recruitment and radicalization activity" by white supremacist groups, antigovernment extremists and militia movements. It did not identify any by name.



It's time to stop this bullshit about free speech and put those fear mongering pricks like Hannity, Beck, O'Reilly, Limbaugh, and Coulter behind bars for inciting violence. Enough is enough.

You can't yell fire in a crowded theater.

1. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure
what these right wingers are doing. I think that is their goal to incite some nut into assassinating the President or at least stop any progress by this President. Look how Moosilini had them fired up last summer, she had them calling for his head.

2. And they are armed to the teeth thanks to Bachman.
I live in Bergen County New Jersey so I don't feel as if my neighbor is going to pick up a gun and join the right wing terrorists. It must be a lot scarier in the red states and especially the west.

3. I swear some of the nuts around here
are hoping for a full fledged race war, I have heard some admit they are stockpiling guns and ammo just in case it comes to that. This area of SE Ohio and West Virginia certainly has its share of loonies. You should have heard the nut that called a local talk show the other day he started out with calling the President a Muslim Terrorist and it went down hill from there. The guy that called was one of the organizers of the local Tea Bag party.
