I keep reading about those horrible Muslims, so I would like to share my findings with you on another group you probably relate to a little more: The patriot movement is a collection of various conservative, independent, largely rural, small-government, social movements in the United States that include organized militia members, tax protesters, sovereign or state citizens, quasi-Christian apocalypticists, or combinations thereof. Descriptions of the patriot movement include: A diverse movement with as its common thread a growing dissatisfaction with and alienation from government, the willingness to use military force to defend their rights, and a conspiratorial eschatology "A brand of politics historically associated with libertarians, militia groups, anti-immigration advocates and those who argue for the abolition of the Federal Reserve A movement outspoken regarding the constitution and particularly the 14th amendment and 2nd amendment As a result, some members refuse to pay their income taxes, and some groups operate their own common-law legal system.Patriot movement members are often concerned about the rise of a New World Order, sometimes coming in the form of a United Nations takeover. In addition, the patriot movement has been associated with the following views: Support of the paramilitary militia movement, such as the Michigan Militia Religious views focused on finding "signs of the end of times" Suspicion regarding surveillance Elements of the patriot movement have expressed support for various conspiracy theories In 2009, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) expressed concern about a resurgent patriot movement, and the United States Department of Homeland Security issued a report warning of heightened "Rightwing Extremism". The SPLC attributed this growth to "an angry backlash against non-white immigration and ... the economic meltdown and the climb to power of an African American president." It reported that the number of patriot groups grew from 149 in 2008, to 824 in 2010 and 1,274 in 2011 Know who was a member of a patriot group? Timothy McVeigh. So applying the same transitive property of a=b and b=c, then a=c. that Republicans use in regards to Muslims, my conclusion is therefore... Terrorist= Timothy McVeigh, Timothy McVeigh=Patriot, Patriot=Tea Party, Tea Party= Republican, so Republican= Terrorist lol You have to admit it was rather clever and a pretty big leap, but people make that leap everyday, and especially today. Its not anti-American to not condemn a whole religion, race, or culture, so stop.
