Mark Potok, represents the Southern Poverty Law Center, in some way.
"We saw a real explosion in militias and the larger anti-government patriot movement," said Mark Potok, who directs the group's Intelligence Report."
The U.S. has seen an "explosion" in the number of extremist groups and armed militias which advocate radical anti-government doctrines and conspiracy theories, a recent report has found. The number of active "Patriot" groups nearly tripled last year to 512 from 149 in 2008, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks the activities of hate groups.
A while back I posted the encyclopedia's article on Fascism; and it stated that the People in Power who could not have their way would start a propaganda campaign, against the countries Patriots! Well, here it comes!
Did not think that black people who love this country would be labeled Extremist-who would have guessed.
People who have a heritage south of the border- now members of Hate Groups, too!
A black man toting a rifle at a Obama teleprompter speech in Arizona, labeled a Militia member.
The Major News Medias showed a man holding a rifle; but did not zoom back far enough to show his bare skin-imagine that.
Yea, the Fascist article from the encyclopedia, is telling the truth about the real movement-it ain't a movement of the Patriots.
The Patriots don't have to be involved in a movement, just hold on for dear life to what this country stands for and what it's Founders have Established for the common good.
History is the tell all of the crooks (Socialist) that have led the Movement to destroy everything that this U.S. of A. is and is to be.
Hat Tip to LL > Can We Keep Our Republic?
It serves always to distract the public councils and feeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which find a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions.
It is important, likewise, that the habits of thinking in a free country should inspire caution in those entrusted with its administration to confine themselves with in their respective constitutional spheres, avoiding in the exercise of the powers of one department to encroach upon another. The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all departments in one and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real despotism.
If in the opinion of the people the distribution or modification of the constitutional powers be in any particular wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in the way which the Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed."
