EXACTLY like them, eh? If they are the American equivalent to ISIS, we have much worse things to worry about, such as the wussification of American men. ISIS blows things up. like historical and cultural sites, murders people by the tens of thousands, sends captured women into sexual slavery, beheads people that refuse to convert to their brand of Islam, crucify Christian men, women and children, fights, yes actually fights, the Russian, Syrian, Jordanian, Iraqi, Iranian and Kurdish armies. The American militia dudes hold up signs, post stuff on the internet, and camp out at a widlife refuge they took over as squatters. Holy shit! What is this country coming to?

Militants May 'Indict' Non-Believers. "These new recruits are joining a culture increasingly hostile to people who disagree with their beliefs. And now, they want to try and convict those people. It’s called a Citizens’ Grand Jury.. they get together and start deliberations. And Geoff, these proceedings are based on the Bible, English common law, and in the case of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, the Book of Mormon. Because it’s not legally binding, Geoff, these juries, often men, act in extralegal means. They’ll harass those who have been indicted, they’ll stalk them, they’ll kidnap them in some cases. I heard of one brutal instance in California where a county clerk was beat at the hands of someone who didn’t like her and got his friends to say she was indicted. From the FBI to the Daryl Johnson to the Anti-Defamation League, they all say, wherever these juries form, intimidation follows.

Yet, notwithstanding all this, if the laws be continually despised and disregarded, if their rights to be secure in their persons and property, are held by no better tenure than the caprice of a mob, the alienation of their affections from the Government is the natural consequence; and to that, sooner or later, it must come. Here then, is one point at which danger may be expected. The question recurs, "how shall we fortify against it?" The answer is simple. Let every American, every lover of liberty, every well wisher to his posterity, swear by the blood of the Revolution, never to violate in the least particular, the laws of the country; and never to tolerate their violation by others. As the patriots of seventy-six did to the support of the Declaration of Independence, so to the support of the Constitution and Laws, let every American pledge his life, his property, and his sacred honor;--let every man remember that to violate the law, is to trample on the blood of his father, and to tear the character of his own, and his children's liberty. Let reverence for the laws, be breathed by every American mother, to the lisping babe, that prattles on her lap--let it be taught in schools, in seminaries, and in colleges; let it be written in Primers, spelling books, and in Almanacs;--let it be preached from the pulpit, proclaimed in legislative halls, and enforced in courts of justice. And, in short, let it become the political religion of the nation; and let the old and the young, the rich and the poor, the grave and the gay, of all sexes and tongues, and colors and conditions, sacrifice unceasingly upon its altars. While ever a state of feeling, such as this, shall universally, or even, very generally prevail throughout the nation, vain will be every effort, and fruitless every attempt, to subvert our national freedom. -An Honest Abraham Speaks ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <dhamiltony...@yahoo.com> wrote : Isn't this what asocial terrorism hopes for: "This has been tearing our community apart," Ward said.

The zealot may be outwardly motivated by the anticipation of a great reward at the other end -- wealth, fame, eternal salvation -- but the real recompense is probably the obsession itself.... Thanks to his (or her) infatuation, existence overflows with purpose. Ambiguity vanishes from the fanatic's world view, a narcissistic sense of self-assurance displaces all doubt.
