Are Sarah Palin fans and Tea Baggers potential terrorists? (One apparently is)
http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/02/man_charged_for_stockpiling_weapons_was_tea_partie.php

Long story short, a Tea bagging nutjob and Palin supporter was arrested and found to have...
a stash of military grade weapons, explosive devices including tear gas and pepper ball canisters, camouflage clothing, knives, handcuffs, bulletproof vests and helmets, and night vision goggles, say police. They believe Girard, who pleaded not guilty at his arraignment, was "preparing for domestic and political turmoil," and feared martial law would soon be imposed.

Girard's wife said her husband had recently told her: "Don't talk to people, shoot them instead," and "it's fine to shoot people in the head because traitors deserve it."


These lunatics are hopped up on meth/hate radio and stockpiling for Armageddon. No wonder the American people can't understand them and don't like them.

Oh, and they're racists too. Here's what this guy has been known to say:
I have studied the "National Security Force," which is Obama's name for the secret police force he is creating. I have read the new law that gives them the right to operate as an extension of the DoD, carrying firearms, and executing search warrants, executing arrest warrants, and the like. Needless to say, it's a secret police force of some kind, and it appears likely to be created from inner city youths.


If they're afraid of Obama's secret police force, Where do I sign up? :sarcasm:

Anyway, as we have seen over the past year to 2 years is that the far-right is mobilized and arming themselves. If they DON'T get their...whatever...basically if it's not THEIR GUY running the planet into the ditch, they get all pissed off and violent.

I think it's time to start adding the craziest of the Tea baggers to the terror watch list. And watch them, closely. IF they complain, tell them that stockpiling millions of bullets (or explosives) and worshipping Sarah Palin puts you into McVeigh territory.

2. These people are truly "budding" terrorists.
These are exactly the type Napolitano was referring to when she was addressing the issue of domestic terrorists. Some of these whackjobs are even openly stating things like "we need the revolution to start!" and crazy shit like that more and more frequently. The way I see it, since these same people are usually the type that are pro profiling and things like the Patriot Act, they shouldn't mind the extra scrutiny. After all, these are the ones always claiming to be the "true patriots" right? :smoke:

3. The one which eventually bites, won't bark first

The rhetoric on the right is tailored to inspire a "lone wolf" who thinks they are instructing him specifically.

4. Oklahoma City is not forgotten
I sure as hell haven't forgotten what happened. Clearly the Tea Baggers either completely forgotten or they wanna bring back the bad days of Waco, Ruby Ridge, black helicopters and the bombings. Otherwise, why have a 1000 pounds worth of bombs in your basement? It's stupid.
