http://www.infowars.com/occupy-phoenix-with-ar-15s/Here's the video when he showed up at the Occupy event and the guy filming is likely a Paulie, makes Ready look quite sane. He doesn't look like a killer but with radical groups. Here he is in better days:
Unless he takes his link down, Alex Jones is being associated with a member of the Nazi party. He's had the head of the John Birch Society on his show. Which turns out to be a creation of the Koch family, so that makes Infowars = Disinformation?
But his followers are definitely NOT Democrats, but members of the Tea Party and support Ron Paul.
Apparently the Wiki page was edited by someone as a smear against Democrats like the one made about the man who shot Giffords, also not a Democrat. But it's been edited out again. Ready was GOP and a member of the Nazi Party.

I'd said back then that opening up OWS to the Paulites would do a lot more harm than good...

I'll look for that book. I've read claims that authoritarianism is based on sexual repression.
