That doesn't mean they agree with the orders, they just do as they are told.

didnt you hear the news of when the director of homeland security called veterans potential terrorists?

that was big news, guess some were just not watching the driveby media that day.

I had not heard this (I don't watch the TV news anymore) ... but it's sheer lunacy. The very people we entrust with protecting our country are now "potential terrorists"?? Explain to me how I could possibly trust someone who makes such statements? Next we'll be hearing that all patriotic citizens are "potential terrorists...

Oh wait, we've already heard that one...

The link points to a video that's been removed from Youtube. Yes, there was a memo stating that veterans and patriotic citizens could have the potential to be domestic terrorists. As I recall, they said that some of the possible signs to watch for included display of Ron Paul bumper stickers or "Don't Tread on Me" flags, support for the tenth amendment, opposition to the current administration's expansion of the federal government (aka "big government"), and the stocking of firearms, ammunition, and "survivalist" supplies (food and water).

Here's a link to a copy of the DHS report:

I guess these days, anyone who is against big goverment, more states rights, less gun control or being able to survive without uncle sugar, is a potential terrorist.

that would be about 70% of the country.

If you actually read the report, it raises the caution that RW groups may target vulnerable veterans for indoctrination and inclusion in the treasonous RW agenda. It's probably something to warn our returning veterans about. We don't want any more Tim McVeigh.

Yeah the presence of liberal terrorists groups was striking. But then why form an anti-government organization when you run the government?

since I dont run the goverment, but I do believe in state rights, limited goverment, no gun control laws and no federal law enforcement, i am considered by some to be an extremist.
