Report Warns Of Rise In Militia Groups Across U.S...Poor economy, Black President,,Root Causes
CBS ^ | 8/11/09 | Some Commie

Militia groups with gripes against the government are regrouping across the country and could grow rapidly, according to an organization that tracks such trends.

The stress of a poor economy and a liberal administration led by a black president are among the causes for the recent rise, the report from the Southern Poverty Law Center says. Conspiracy theories about a secret Mexican plan to reclaim the Southwest are also growing amid the public debate about illegal immigration.

Bart McEntire, a special agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, told SPLC researchers that this is the most growth he's seen in more than a decade.

"All it's lacking is a spark," McEntire said in the report.

Right. There are a lot of Domestic enemys around. Communists are infiltrating. They are enemys of the Constitution. Do your duty.

This is impossible. I didn’t join a militia when we had the last black president, but now, I’m strangely drawn to militias...must be Glenn Beck’s fault.

Over the years the SPLC has gotten some very, very bad ratings by various watchdog groups that monitor non-profit outfits.

I call your heavily armed state and raise you a heavily armed Texas.

I’ve attended a couple of sporting shows here in Texas over the last several months........makes me proud to see the folks who will defend this great nation if pushed to do so.

“Militia groups with gripes against the government are regrouping across the country and could grow rapidly, according to an organization that tracks such trends.”

And this is a bad thing?

BTW, government spies, the militias never went away.

“....Secret Mexican conspiracy to reclaim the Southwest USA....”

Are they joking? Doesn’t La Raza announce this desire openly from the podium during their race-a-palooza events where they demonize whitey and Omoslem gives a speech promising amnesty for illegals?

Morris Dees of SPLC has done very, very well for himself financially because of his “handling” of SPLC affairs. Very well indeed. Not bad for a head of a “non-profit” scam.

I’m not sure what the numbers are but I suspect Texas and Michigan are both in the top 5.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is not an unbiased or a very reliable source.

The SLPC is a leftist organization that sees white racism behind every protest against the socialist agenda of the democrats. If you are a white gun owning Christian who wants smaller and less intrusive government you are a member of a secret Klan according to the SLPC.

The “President” is not black...He’s Mulatto. I am not the mob, paid by anybody nor a member of the KKK.

We fought the Southern Poverty Law Center for years in our local school district. The schools were utilizing SPLC’s Teaching Tolerance series. All it taught was that capitalism is bad, socialism-communism is good, and whitey is the cause of all of the world’s problems. We only succeeded in removing the program from the schools when it was discovered that one of the facilitators had an arrest record. They had a huge push after 911 teaching the kids that America is intolerant and basically deserved the events of that day. The material handed out in the classrooms had a picture of a young (white) child in a KKK get up and went on about oppression of Muslims in the USA. In other words the SPLC is still spreading its lies.

As long as they focus on socialists, I’m warm and fuzzy with it.
