NO ONE is defending the group that tried to kidnap the MI governor. In contrast, libs DO DEFEND the BLM and ANTIFA terrorists who have KILLED AND CAUSED OVER $2 BILLION IN DAMAGES.

The terrorist group hates everyone, including Trump, but the left has tried to associate them with conservatives. The big difference is that BLM and ANTIFA ARE THE MILITARY WING OF THE DEM PARTY and are fully supported by libs.

This is simply the libs trying to assuage their guilt over supporting terrorist organizations by attempting to find a moral equivalence to justify their lunacy.

We don't see "MI TERRORISTS MATTER" signs up around the country.

If you're blaming the "left" instead of the President for empowering and enabling far-right militia groups, you're frankly in denial and not very bright. Case in point, for 8 years there was a man in the White House that the far right HATED.....and they did nothing. They sat on their dimpled asses eating funyons and drinking mountain dew. So, if that paragon of everything the far right despises could not get them to turn off Honey Boo Boo and climb into their pick ups to "defend America", nothing on the left will do it. It took their ringleader, the lying, cheating, philandering game show host to get them riled up.

He blew the dog whistle and the mutts perked up.

Did the FBI declare BLM and Antifa the biggest threat to America? No. "Within the domestic terrorism bucket, the category as a whole, racially motivated violent extremism is, I think, the biggest bucket within that larger group. And within the racially motivated violent extremist bucket, people subscribing to some kind of white supremacist-type ideology is certainly the biggest chunk of that,"

The FBI Director said that. Nominated by your false god, Donald Trump. So either Trump again hired badly or we have to take this seriously.

The way you describe it makes it seem like entire cities are falling...

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the losing side, desperately trying to deflect and distract.

This is what the seven year old neighbor kid does when caught throwing rocks at your house.

I'm not sure what anyone expected after Trump tweeted, "Liberate Michigan!" Words have power and the Great Divider in Chief has been deliberately riling up the mentally unstable right wing wackos for years.

The MC Patriots have attempted to intimidate members of a local church sponsored group called the March for Peace and Justice. The Peace and Justice folks are non violent and normally walk down Main Street every Saturday at noon, holding signs and remaining silent.

The Patriots have chosen to confront these members of St. Barnabas Episcopal Church, calling them a "terrorist" group. They shout obscenities and threats at these peaceful protestors, telling them that they don't belong here and threatening to run them out of town. One of the protestors is a black woman, and she is often the object of the Patriots' ire - they call her the "N" word and tell her that she will be sorry if she ever shows her face here again.

When members of the Peace and Justice march return to the courtyard of St. Barnabas Church after their weekly march is completed, Patriots on motorcycles buzz the Church, circling the block many times just to make sure that their message of intimidation is received by all involved.

I guess that this is what loyal Trump supporters do these days in order to prove to the country what loyal Americans they are.

Here's a backgrounder on these groups from High Country News:
Nice try CR. Now show us where any of these groups you are so fearful of have actually done anything destructive.

How many more plots are probably out there for these far-right groups, militias and white supremacists?

It's getting worse and worse. Trumps rhetoric is not helping any of this and their cause. Just listen to the last debate. This country seems to be going downhill.
For one thing, any group opposed to these left wing DNC supported Marxists would and are considered right wing. One can not go any farther left than these groups of idiots. The plots are all wrapped up in your scull.

And yet the FBI Director, a Trump appointee, had no problem drawing that distinction.

But you know what a real threat to Americans? These far-right groups who also might hate immigrants and are racist also. And to think, many of these immigrants make way more money and are way more functional than these idiotic groups who do nothing all day other than to think of stupid plans like kidnapping the MI governor.

America is going downhill and it's up to us to fix it.
Are these so-called far right groups looting and rioting in our cities? No one hates legal immigrants it's illegal aliens that we object to. Nothing racist about wanting our immigration laws respected and enforced. The type of people you are describing are way in the minority in this country. Most conservative Americans are not radical and are working.

If America is going down hill it's due to the radical left who are terrorizing our country. Get your facts straight!

The country was already going downhill after Ferguson. Why would you not expect these types of groups to increase in view of the liberal policies in these Democratic cities where they allow the protests to continue? People are sick of it and will fight back to protect themselves and their properties.

I hate to see these groups grow - but you only have the liberals to blame. Someone has to take control.
