Apparently, if you are not a member of the two big Parties, read stuff positive about our Constitution, or have a Bumper Sticker that is not Mainstream Democrat, you could be a "ParaMilitary Terrorist".

Great...

 

[SuperFerret]

I'm not. I'm just one guy, with no connections to anyone in any power and I'm not influential enough to get people to follow me.

 

[SuBe]

Do you have a Bumper Sticker or maybe a Republican or Libertarian pamplet, or a pocket sized US Constitution? You could be a Terrorist.

 

[Paradoxium]

The "if you are a Libertarian you might be a terrorist" report has been running in the small press for a long while. Wonder why the big press finally decided to pick it up

 

[Paradyme]

Where is the quiz version of this report? I'm just curious if it's a black and white broad stroke or if there are gray areas.

 

[Malice]

I am obviously a danger...because I believe all the parties are the problem.

 

[Paradoxium]

I admit there are radicals and white supremacists that get bundled with the Libertarians because the very nature of Libertarianism is very... diverse. From fringe lunatics to well read academics.

When has there not been an extreme group of lunatics to a normal group of individuals?

I just feel the report is blanketing everyone into one group which is ridiculous.

Welcome to collectivism, where grouping people takes a priori to the individual.

The extreme nutsos typically have a louder voice and a massive soapbox, and naturally they draw the most attention.

The people that are civil and forsake proselytizing and only offer what they believe when asked have no interest in stepping into the limelight.

Happens with other thing in life.

 

[BlackLantern]

I am a black man with a full time job and am a registered Independent....am I a terrorist?

 

[Addendum]

If you don't register with any political party, there's no problem.

When I registered to vote back in '96, I wrote "None" for party affiliation

 

[Victarion]

These "Fusion Centers" need to go. Nao.

I have a pocket-sized US Constitution.

 

[SuperFerret]

They make those?

 

[hippie_hunter]

I voted for Ron Paul and own The Revolution.

 

[SuBe]

I have a pocket-sized US Constitution.

I have it on my iPhone, I just bought the Federalist Papers, I'm reading Liberal Fascism, I support the FairTax. I'm a Terrorist.

 

[danielisthor]

3rd party? yep
believe in the Constitution? yes.
I listen and watch Glen Beck, he's a Libertarian, attends Tea Parties, openly questions the government, both political parties.

I think I'm a domestic terrorist or will be one someday. Should I move out into the forest and start loading up?

 

[Heretic]

Dont forget that one police memo states that people wearing blue jeans or have cell phones or maps in their cars are also terrorists...

This is an outright attempt to declare everyone a potential threat, aand therefore take away our rights in the name of safety.

The terrorists are those who are afraid of the constitution, not the ones who respect it.

This is all being misconstrued. As is customary with law enforcement, certain groups are "profiled" by their trends. According to the report, Millitia members or Domestic Terrorist tend to associate with other right-wing conservative organizations. That doesn't imply that people who associate with those organizations are militants. Furthermore this was supposed to be a sensitive document.

Supposed to be a sensitive document?? meaning that no one was supposed to see it?? they were planning to profile entire massive chunks of Americans as terrorists and we werent supposed to know about it?

Exactly...

its the same thing as always "we arent doing anything...oh, you have proof that we are??? Well, you werent supposed to see that and I promise we wont abuse it".
