The husband of a military servicewoman living on a Tennessee Naval base is under investigation for posting threatening comments on a radical right-wing Web site, FoxNews.com has learned.
Investigators with the Naval Criminal Investigative Service have seized the man's shotgun and taken it to the armory at the Naval Support Activity Mid-South base in Millington, Tenn. The firearm will be will be stored there while the agency's probe continues.
The man, writing under the name "ACA," posted a comment last week in response to a story on the expanding role of the IRS under the new health care law. The story was posted on infowars.com, which is operated by conservative talk-show host Alex Jones.
In response to comments made by a poster who questioned others' commitment to violence against government workers, "ACA" wrote:
"THEN I WILL ( I here by threatn you with violence) if you come to my door [address removed] see if im joking! and as for you BEN what dose it look like? you living in it right now! IVAN go buy a gun and get some practice in... ..."

Interesting, hey?
Infowars is not rightwing, it’s a conspiracy nutcase website.
It is. When the roundup begins we will be in the number rounded up. Minus the moles.
There was an “antifascist” group who came to the US from Canada to riot in Toledo.
Among the “fascists” they called out on their site were President Bush and Freerepublic.com.
The media blacked out all national coverage of the bomb and kidnapping plots at the 2008 RNC convention.
The media’s selective coverage is not “journalism”. It is a partisan witchhunt.
You have got to be shitting me Fox. How about getting some fact checkers, eh?
The marxists in government & the media are feeling froggy after their big health care "win", hard to tell which issue they'll try to slide thru next. Maybe all at once.
This action was taken after FoxNews.com inquired about the online comment.
FOX NEWS?
Why would FOX get involved?
"Based on the statements, the installation commanding officer requested that the resident surrender any weapons to base security for safekeeping until an investigation could be completed. The resident was cooperative and complied with the request," Crenshaw said.
"The Naval Criminal Investigative Service and the Installation Security Team are conducting an investigation into the statements to determine if there was any criminal wrongdoing."

I hate when Jones aligns himself with issues we care about. The uninformed look at that and assume he is right wing.
Why would FOX get involved?
You would not want to be responsible for a violent post on your forum if the perp actually goes out and does something.
Its good to know NIS is on the job. Too bad the Army wasn’t in the case of the Ft. Hood Major. Methinks its find angry white man week with the Federales.
He's a civilian? How does he come under the Navy's jurisdiction?
info wars is a leftwing site. They are truther. Perhaps someone needs to contact FOX.
During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.
Alex Jones may be a Hal Turner type.
If those posts are true, then the guy is a nutcase.
Navy family ping
Heh..
Keep em busy....
Make them visit 1 million doors of 1 million people making threatening comments! Overload the system and bring it crashing down. At some point they will over compensate and start tipping those on the edge over into radical opposition. Our numbers will swell and we WILL crush them.
That sounds painful.
