Police fear far-right terror attack (Oh here we go you know they will use that here!)
Guardian UK ^ | 7/6/09

Posted on 07/06/2009 9:29:10 AM PDT by FromLori

Similar warnings about the terror threat of the far right have been issued in America recently. In April, an internal report drawn up by the US department of homeland security warned of a possible rise in violent rightwing extremist groups fuelled by the recession and hostility over the election of the first black president. The report said threats from white supremacist and violent anti-government groups had been largely rhetorical so far, but a prolonged economic downturn could create a fertile recruiting environment for rightwing extremists.

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.” – The Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776

I guess Napolitano cannot figure out where 20 million invaders are, so she needs to focus on the “domestic terrorists”.

Who was it that said: “When citizens fear the government, there will be tyranny. When the government fears the citizens, there will be liberty.”

Maybe, they should WELCOME the right wing terrorist attack.

Unfortunately they may be right. On the fringes are those on both sides who would turn to terrorist violence given enough motivation. But, it should not be enough of a risk for us the silence any critizim of the current currupt criminal administration. They really hope there will be an attack, because it would give them an excuse to deprive us of more of our rights.
It is not in the interest of the conservatives to have any type of terrorist event, but it is for those on the left.

Nonsense. I don't see any hostility about the election of the first black President. On the contrary, practically everybody in the country is falling all over themselves for the Obamas.

And WHY? WHY is everyone in the country falling all over the Obamas with fawning admiration?

Same reason he was elected. The color of his skin.

Now I didn't walk with the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, but I'm pretty sure what he was talking about was that people should NOT be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

We are pretty far away from that.

Who knows, maybe having swung to another extreme, maybe we'll settle down in the middle and actually begin to be true some day to King's vision.

In the meantime, it's not Obama being black that could stir up conflict. It's his destroying the country by spending us and our children and grandchildren into bankrupt slavery, ignoring legally-established contracts so that investors can be screwed and have their property taken and given to the unions (okay, that was the USSC, but it's all the government), coddling our enemies (such as Iran), corrupting our Constitution (where indeed is the long-form birth certificate?), betraying our country by siding with Marxist usurpers against those who follow democratically-instituted laws, and generally mismanaging and failing to defend our nation.

" rightwing extremist groups fuelled by the recession and hostility over the election of the first black president"

No, it's the American Citizens who are aware of the deliberate destruction and wealth redistribution of the communist takeover that they oppose, and the trampling and disregard of the U.S. Constitution. That disregard began with the propoganda spewed by the State-Run-Media for TWO YEARS PRIOR TO THE VOTING, and the token black Kenyan candidate was propped up, with NO credentials, no history of his schooling, no birth certificate, etc., etc., and THAT is why guns and ammo are in short supply now......WE THE PEOPLE, are what they are targeting here.....

They’re worried about right-wing extremists.
They’re not worried about the millions of headchoppers who have vowed to destroy their country.
Liberalism is complete madness.
