Homeland Security: You’re All ‘Militia Extremists’ Now
PJ Media.com ^ | 2/6/12 | Patrick Poole

Love the Constitution? Hate government regulations? New DHS "lexicon" brands you a "militia extremist."

A recently published “lexicon” distributed to thousands of federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) targets citizens concerned about their Second Amendment rights and the steady encroachment of the federal government, categorizing such as “militia extremists.”

The “lexicon,” marked Unclassified/For Official Use Only (FOUO), is dated November 10, 2011, and was sent out by email to law enforcement and homeland security agencies on November 14 by LaJuan E. Washington of the DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis.

We have exclusively posted the DHS “lexicon” here.

Its definition of “militia extremists” states:

(U//FOUO) Groups or individuals who facilitate or engage in acts of violence directed at federal, state, or local government officials or infrastructure in response to their belief that the government deliberately is stripping Americans of their freedoms and is attempting to establish a totalitarian regime. These individuals consequently oppose many federal and state authorities’ laws and regulations, (particularly those related to firearms ownership), and often belong to armed paramilitary groups. They often conduct paramilitary training designed to violently resist perceived government oppression or to violently overthrow the US Government. (Page 2 of 3, emphasis added)

These definitions are critical in getting the military to act domestically.

If a citizen fits the definition of dangerous, as drilled in over the next few years, or fits the definition of terrorist, we are several steps closer to having troop movements on our streets.

Question is: How many LEOs are going to see this unAmerican nonsense for what it is, and ignore it.

“How many LEOs”

In cities, or in rural areas? Voted in or appointed? Liberal mayor/governor?

How many National Guard colonels will go along?

I’m with them. I’ll dance with the ones that brought me.

“I bet our Founders would have been called militia extremists.”

Well, they organized and took up arms against the legally established government! They tarred, feathered, and sometimes hung loyalists. They committed acts of sabotage and vandalism.

They spread great exaggerations of the loyalist government’s actions to stay in power.

They conspired to keep other’s crimes a secret or at least unsolved.

They kept illegal weapons of war and ammunition for same.

They were terrorists, not just militia extremists.

Far too many to implement total dictatorship. That's why Obama created the Office of Diversity and Civil Rights under the Dept. of Homeland Security. They need to recruit enough hate filled minorities to create their Civil National Security Force which is crucial to their tyrannical and dictatorial agenda.

Follow the money. We need to oppose the revenue-sharing started by Nixon. With money comes strings, bribes.

Constitutional Government “extremists” ......it’s gonna be fun to watch the Progressive Media try to twist a limited government message into “extremism”...

“Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And…
moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue!”
