Right-wing militia groups have grown steadily since the 2008 election of President Barack Obama and they continue to grow, according to a new report released this week.
The left-leaning Political Research Associates published “Up in Arms: A Guide to Oregon’s Patriot Movement” during a presidential election season that’s seen Republican nominee Donald Trump appeal to such right-wing groups while Democrat Hillary Clinton has been the subject of ire for those same groups.
The report says Oregon has one of the most developed militia movements in the country and it details the rise of the movement, including events and groups that have developed in the state in recent years.
The Patriot movement came about in Oregon and elsewhere in the wake of the 1990’s militia movement. At the core of their beliefs is the idea that the federal government threatens their freedoms.
“These groups are often armed and advocate defying federal laws they think are unconstitutional,” the report says, adding militias employ an inside/outside strategy as some members work to change things from within the government, while those on the outside undermine the system.

We are probably looking at an India/Pakistan/Bangladesh scenario.
Man, was that a mess.
We can only hope. More propagandizing for Hitlery.
Good point.

How many Feds were on the inside at the TP shootout in Waco?

Hard to fight against drones, jets and tanks and a well equipped army.
Not like the old days when it wa gun against gun.
Funny how Black Panthers are never referred to as a left wing militia...
No need for that. Start with the people you know, your neighbors, and keep it local. Surprising how strong controlled growth can be.
I recall that Russian prediction of America’s split, too.
It was supposed to happen in mid-2010...
Here’s some other predictions -

They don’t seem on track for Russia and China, from what I can tell.
And here’s one from what’s said to be a CIA-Defense front that predicts a very unpleasant USA downfall starting in Q1 2017:
USA Q4 2016 - sitting on top of the world:

USA 2025 - note huge decline in major orders starting Q1 2017, as well as precipice drop in pop, GDP, and military spending by 2025.
Doom porn money shot sensationalism, I hope...

RE: “A Russian economist wrote about it. At the time, it may have seemed like nothing but propaganda from Putin, but maybe not so much anymore. While I do think there’s a chance it could, I don’t definitely don’t think the map in the WSJ article is even remotely close to how it would shake out. No way that any part of this country would ever come under the control of Canada and certainly not Mexico.

When the time comes, I am thinking cells of ONE.
There are millions of people who each know areas of vulnerability.
LOL. To clarify:
Start working with the people you know
In any group of more than three people, the odds are good that one is an informant. If any member has ever been arrested for anything, assume that he has been put under heavy pressure to be an informant, in exchange for probation.
Then you must be a most capable person. I salute you.
I was thinking in terms of defense.
Nice!!
If you look at the heatmap of vote totals for just about any modern election the overwhelming majority of the United States is republican (Conservative) while the major urban centers are overwhelming liberal (socialist). Even if we broke up into independent republics similar in size to the European countries the cities would skew the balance in favor of the socialist party just like they do now.
Perhaps a sensible alternative would be to only allow landowners to vote or Heinline’s vision of military veterans or those citizens who did two years of community service as having earned the right to vote, and I might add that somebody has also suggested that receiving any form of government assistance negates that right for as long as the citizen can vote favorably to increase his own largess.
