Too bad they didn't have the DEA on their list. If ever there is a group of violent miscreants who need to have their routine of wreaking havoc on peaceable people interrupted, it's them.

What part did the much vaunted Homeland Security play in this little charade? TSA agents grope them at the local Winn Dixie?

Has Napolitannonuts claimed they arrived via Canada and want a taller fence with more drone aircraft patrolling the 49th? Waaait for it!

No, why do you ask that ?

Yes. If someone attacked soldiers would that not be terrorism?

You sound like a sympathizer.

Our government and press are awfully quick to label "terrorist" to anyone plotting.
They were going after the IRS and ATF, not incite fear in Americans all over. Where is the "terrorism" in that ?

They broke the law,yes but are they really "terrorists" ?
Gee, you'd think that people would give the same leeway to people of different ethnic backgrounds.
You do that, don't you?
You don't call muslims or middle easterners terrorists and you stick up for them like you are for these guys.

So, you're going to blame the government for the planned attacks?
Then you blamed the specific people attacked in the WTC, right? Same logic.

Exactly. It's like everyday somewhere in the world we hear of white rednecks blowing people up, killing and maiming and other violent actions.

So commonplace it's gotten boring, sad to say.

Why do I suspect this is a recording of a bunch of cranky old dudes talking tough?

If this is the terrorism we have to fear I'd guess it might be safe to go outside again.

When it's politically motivated? I'd say so.
