“We really are getting into black helicopter territory here.” I do not agree and I think that statement helps about as much as “it’s the jooos”

I believe there are some real concerns when the DHS put something like this out there, why?, this is why…”This gets repeated over and over again during the report. They have no threat information. In fact, the report can’t even say definitively whether “extremists” are gaining “new recruits”. In order to find that, they’d have to identify the actual groups, note the recruiting patterns, and determine whether in fact they’re gaining recruits or losing members. Bottom line: DHS has no actual data. They’re pulling threats out of their collective arse and publishing them without any supporting research whatsoever.” ~HA

Also, is this nice piece of information from the DHS report. “The current economic and political climate has some similarities to the 1990s when right wing extremism experienced a resurgence fueled largely by an economic recession, criticism about the outsourcing of jobs, and the perceived threat to U.S. power and sovereignty by other foreign powers.” WTH? outsourcing of jobs? missed that re-write of history when the left had their panties in a wad about outsourcing? What?, now they are fine with it?

Mr. Johnson, your loathing of the X-files is showing // ~B
