The I-Team has learned that several members of a Midwestern militia group who were acquitted of plotting to overthrow the government are suing the law enforcement officials who arrested them.
The Hutaree Christian Militia was accused of planning to trigger revolution by first killing law enforcement officers.

I've had a couple of years to date without harrassment, but am working on disappearing from my People's Republic with no forwarding address.
Klein is a man who does not know history, and I hope that he is doomed to suffer a repetition of it.
And you’re right. It’s media bias, and everybody with two brain cells to rub together knows it.
