Supremacists attack 14th Amendment yet again
Supremacists attack 14th Amendment yet again
By Leonard Zeskind


Taking the long view often puts current events in perspective.

Consider a Missouri-based group in the 1960s called the Minutemen. It pledged to save the American heartland from a communist invasion and the depredations of “treasonous” congressmen.

It worked with hard-core white supremacists, and its leader was jailed on weapons violations.

In the early 1980s, a group called the Posse Comitatus took up where the Minutemen left off. It promised to save debt-ridden family farmers in the Midwest. But its phony “common law” legal schemes and anti-Semitic rhetoric only managed to keep farmers from finding the real causes and solutions to their undeniably difficult circumstances.
