Experts who track extremists say the loosely organized groups can serve as a gateway to radicalization — and in extreme cases, that can lead to planned acts of domestic terrorism such as those described in the Michigan plot. Some of these groups deny being anti-government extremists. On the Three Percenters website, the organization states: “We are NOT a militia.” But a consistent thread among such groups is the idea that people should be prepared for an armed struggle against the government. |

I am so sick of these bed-wetters characterizing the 3%'ers and Oath Keepers as 'extremists' and 'radicals.'
They are nothing of the kind. the 3%'ers are not anti-government, they are anti-renegade-government. Same for the Oath Keepers. The latter are, in fact, active and retired military and law enforcement, who take their oath to the Constitution literally. It isn't window-dressing, it's the real deal.
Radical? Not anymore than those 'radicals' who bequeathed us, through sacrificed blood and treasure, the freest, most magnificent country in global history.
Calling them 'radical' is insulting, and not worthy of respect. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
