Let them blather on about the wanna-be commandos out in the woods—it keeps their tiny little minds off the TENS OF MILLIONS who will grab a deer rifle if the fascism gets out of hand.

NY Jews also behind Obama. Count the number in his administration. Secular Jews have always been proponents of socialism.

Those militia groups are all infiltrated by the FBI and the ATF. Many times as leadership doubling as 'agent provoceteur'. Otherwise, just taking notes and taking names.

Too bad they didn't do the same in the Islamic temples.

I remember sitting in the teacher's work area back in 1997 when I was teaching middle school and seeing a smirking leftie reading the equally leftie Miami Herald and calling out to me from across the room: Hey, Mr. ___, are you a member of a MILITIA? The whole room went dead silent and all eyes were on me. I saw several of my male buddies nudging each other in a sort of WATCH THIS attitude.

I cleared my throat and my answer literally sent her screaming from the room. I said: NO but it's not because I don't believe in their cause or their goals. The simple fact is that they can't teach me anything NEW! After she fled (never to speak to me again, thankfully) the lunch resumed it's normal demeanor and my buddies all gathered around to ridicule her and her commie cohorts at the school, many of whom had remained in the room to eat lunch and were now getting an indirect piece of our minds....

I had the exact same scenario happen to me. My response: "Nah, those wusses are way too liberal for me."

"Too bad they didn't do the same in the Islamic temples."

That depends on what the goal is.

Constitutional liberty is not it.

Well, that would certainly qualify as a “spark”, I would think....

Militia groups, in contrast to standing armies, control their leadership.
