Army soldiers formed a militia group in Georgia that plotted to overthrow the U.S. government — and they killed a fellow soldier and his girlfriend to keep the plot secret, prosecutors alleged Monday, according to the Associated Press.
Prosecutors in the Long County, Ga., case say that the militia group planned to overtake the nearby Fort Stewart, to bomb a dam in Washington state and poison the state’s apple crop and ultimately overthrow the government and assassinate the president, according to reports.

This sounds like something out of the Homeland Security terrorist senario. Idiots.
Note:
Those who assassinate people don’t plan nonsense like this, they just do it.
I call it a cancel the election trial balloon.
crackpots
Sounds like a”Major Barf Alert”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No apparently that was the plan. One guy has already accepted a plea to cooperate in return for having his sentence reduced to a double count of manslaughter.
well, if i can get three or four people together i am sure we will be able to take over the white hut? ya thinK?
any volunteers?
nonsense.
Blessings, bobo
I suppose they think we'll buy their BS this time.
Hey dunderheads, it didn't work with Waco/OKC, it won't work this time.
Remember the Montana Militia scenario?
Think that on steroids if you try it again.
***Army soldiers formed a militia group in Georgia that plotted to overthrow the U.S. government***
I’ve noticed in the past that these so-called militia groups constantly telegraph their moves to the various Justice Departments.
Sounds more like braggadosio.
No sense making a martyr out of a marxist, whose failures will send him tumbling from the seat of power.
Regardless of what they say. The things they planned are not credible.
And people who are assassins simply do it. They do not talk about it.
Agreed.
I want him in jail.
Simple as that.
Yes, crackpots.
I suspect there is a hidden pot farm somewhere in this story. Nuts like this usually have that going on too.
BS meter pegged —they tried this six months back with a group of poor old Michigan marksman buddies and the charges were thrown out completerly.
More concocted emergencies from a bisexual Muslim....
yep
Hang them.
I’m a lover not a fighter.
In 2008, when Democrats from Austin Texas and elsewhere descended on the RNC/GOP Convention with plans to firebomb the convention and kidnap delegates, it got ZERO national press. Even when they were subsequently convicted of there crimes it only got coverage in the local communities.
PS. reportedly at least some members of today’s group had anarchist symbols tattooed on their flesh.
anarchist?
That would not surprise me at all.
Obozo’s leftie friends acting out.
Makes zero sense.
What is the political payback by poisoning a bunch of apples? None.
And as far as the dams go, the state is ALREADY dismantling some of the dams on the Olympic peninsula, so they’d just be saving the state some cash!
There’s way more to this story than they are saying...
In 2008?
Wonder if Bill Ayers was on the planning team?
Lefties
Won't be the first time that a Democrat president ordered his DOJ to prosecute his critics
-- and yes it was a Democrat president. Yes it was W.W.II but those charged were long-time, pre-war FDR critics and anti-communists. To try to insure conviction and stir up public opinion against the accused the FDR DOJ included known Nazi sympathizers, totally unrelated to the FDR critics, in the group charged.
Here's just one account of The Great Sedition Trial of 1944
The current administration of Marxist-Alinsky radicals (psycho spoiled brats actually) are just looking for the excuse.. it's taken them decades to get this far and they ain't quitting without fighting.
Instead of Nazi sympathizers it's white supremacists. Instead of sedition it's war-related psychological illnesses or even plotting to overthrow the government.
And yes they go after the little people first.. then they go after the elite. FDR could go after Senator Taft and other prominent critics until enough little people had been disposed of.. fortunately the courts put an end to the madness after a few months.
"Yeah! Uh Huh!"
"Then, we'll bomb a dam in Washington State."
"Damn betcha!"
"Then, we're gonna poison the apple orchards up in Washington."
"That'll get 'em!"
And, finally, we're gonna move on Washington D.C., assassinate the president and take over the government."
"Uh huh, man, uh huh! Gimme s'more of that weed."
**********************************************
Seems perfectly logical, doesn't it...???
Poison the fruit, the trees, or both? How would they accomplish that" Washington produces abut two million tons of apples--that's a lot of apples, so they're taking on a big job.
LOL! Nice try, Big Sis.
Or way less...
did this group have a name?
sounds far fetched
are they joking?
Another outstandingly excellent wording of an article.
I guess Army Soldiers forming a militia(?) is a better statement than Navy Soldiers forming a militia?
Sounds like something someone would come up with in order to mask a real plan...
of course, you knew i said that all in jest.
pretty silly to think you could get four or five thugs together and overthrow a country?
it was in sarcasm.
if i offended, i apologize.
blessings, bobo
I love you.
And so it begins. The sensationalized “threats” to make otherwise law abiding citizens look like a threat. Trying to help hussein look tough, embattled, maybe even give him cover to take action. They want to make ex soldiers look bad, and by extension current soldiers. They want people who speak of liberty, limited government, patriotism, and the like to seem like extremists. We are being marginalized as a precursor to action being taken against us.
that is the nicest thing anyone has said to me in a long time.
thank you so very much. you have made my night for me.
with utmost thanks,
blessings, bobo
As the old hippies said:
Far out man, far out.
Why would people not say nice things to you? You clearly have a good and gentle heart, and you are not a flesh-eating zombie at all!
This is the dreaded “Sleeping Beauty” plot known to have overthrown governments across the globe.
How much LSD would one have to take to come up with something like this?
agreed
Their “planning” has been pretty terrible so far.
What does poisoning a Washington State apple crop, and overthrowing
the Government have in common? I have no frekin idear.
Ah, but i am strong headed in what i believe and i am faithful, and a christian and believe in right and wrong, and am very intolerant of what i consider sin.
but that is me.
but, i really love everyone as much as is possible, although i have a very hard time with the muslims. they need to repent or go to allah.
Blessings to you, i appreciate your kindness towards me.
They're both in Washington?
“poison the state’s apple crop and ultimately overthrow the government”
Yup.
Everybody knows that apples are the key to anarchy.
Read the bible.
/s
Out in our neck of the woods it would be a Meth lab.
Count me out.
I *like* apples.
A bunch of [intellectual] dwarves, a young girl and poisoned apples.
Why does this fairy tale sound so familiar?
“The Snow White Supremacists”
Snow White.
Mental midgets.
Young girl.
Poison apples.
It’s all right there.
