LOL...good point. I've thought about that too. Whether it be old white guys or young arabs, it always makes me wonder how the plotters-to-be get hooked up with government agents? It's one of those things that makes me wish I could live 300 years just so I could do a stint in federal law enforcement to see how all that works!

I'm not sure I buy that slant Kele...most red states have the least educated citizens and lowest wage jobs from what I have read so far..stands to reason the poor old guys might want to attack the rich.

Tit for tat, right? I mean, based on your posts here in this forum, the radical left wing propaganda clearly has significant influence over at least one person, so fair's fair.

If you want to see less extremism, you should be less extreme yourself, T. Just sayin'...

Nice deflection. These people are a right wing domestic terrorist group investigated by the FBI that was planning to attack america, just like another right wing militia group did in Oklahoma city. There is no spin to this story and not standing against it, you stand for it,..

If they're found guilty, throw their wrinkly butts in jail and weld the door shut.

Were they gonna do this right after they take their heart pills? They were plotting something they'd never have been able to pull off.
Sure they would not have 100% succeeded, but they could have caused harm.

James von Brunn was 90 years old when he entered the DC Holocaust Museum and began shooting.

Why not throw in "right wing"? That's what they are, as was von Brunn.

That was GregW's editorializing, not a report on the motivations of those arrested.

Thomas [one of the defendants] went on to describe a "bucket list" of government workers, politicians, corporate leaders and members of the media who he thought needed to be "taken out" to "make the country right again," according to the document.

"When it comes to saving the Constitution, that means some people gotta die," he allegedly said at one point.

Get real.

James von Brunn, the man who allegedly shot and killed a guard at the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., was a Darwin-lover who hated the Bible and Christians, and defies media efforts to classify him as a stereotypical "right-winger," according to reports.
The Moonbattery blog revealed von Brunn advocated the socialist policies espoused by Adolf Hitler and used Darwinian theory to support his anti-Semitism.

Right-wing doesn't have to be Christian or anti-science. Right-wingers use the pseudo-science of social Darwinism, the "survival of the fittest" in societal (not biological) terms, all the time.

von Brunn was an Obama birther, tried to commit violence against the Federal Reserve Board, was a member of a group that raised funds in the United States for the far right and "rights for whites" British National Party and for a while lived with Aryan Nations.

Real lefty he was.
