"Violence will come…. Violence Will Come from The Left. Violence is Part of the Plan." Glenn Beck
After walking away from this article one finds that Glenn Beck is the chief proprietor of the "anti-truth" – a lie so silly its meaning becomes the very opposite of what is true.
Along with this TIME cover story The Secret World of Extreme Militias By Barton Gellman is also a set of photographs by 19 year old photographer Ty Cacek Inside an American Militia
There were many eye openers in this article which I think need to be listed for those who have not the time to read this story of what losers do on weekends.
Since Barack Obama became president anti-government militias have expanded by 300%, from 42 to 127.
Many of these militia members are retired and presently serving police, sheriffs and US military. Tim McViegh was a Marine war hero. One of our "Troops".
Homeland Security, the ATF and the FBI will not address this issue publicly out of fear of them. The one report on this last year from Homeland Security was shelved and has been played down by director Janet Napolitano.
The common denominator that drives all militias is their absolutist belief in the 2nd Amendment. And that Barack Obama will direct the federal government to invade their homes to take their guns away. Though just the opposite of that has happened, it matters little to a small brain on big hate. They also contend that the moment the first confiscation of guns will trigger their coming war with the United States Government.
Another common denominator is the belief that County Sheriffs have the right to arrest and shoot any federal agent infringing into their jurisdiction.
Though many militias are not overtly racist they are all covertly so. A black man in the White house is what has sent them over the edge.
The militias do not train to ward off terrorists, drug lords or criminals, but making war on police, the ATF, Federal Marshals, the US National Guard, the US Army and of course the Mexican Army who are poised to invade at any moment. They also believe that Hussein Obama will be bringing in UN forces made up of Iranians to police America. Gosh…
White Supremacist and Anti-Semite James Von Brunn who killed Holocaust Museum guard Tyrone Johns had been a leader in the militia movement most of his life.
White Supremacist Andrew Poplawski did in three policemen from his front porch in Pittsburgh because a Black president made him so angry.
US National Guardsman Joshua Cartwright did in two police officers because a Black president made him so angry.
But the biggest story in the article concerns James Cummings pictured to the left. With $2 million dollar inheritance to help him along, Cummings was intent upon setting off a dirty bomb close enough to kill the President and his family on Inauguration day. Investigators found not only a well thought out plan with drawings, but that he had purchased and was cooking the radio active material to make it happen. Thankfully his abused wife shot him before he could act. As one detective on the case put it had she not done him in, "We would have known Mr. Cummings a lot better than we do right now."
So where Glenn Beck finds the Left guilty of the violence I do not know. Perhaps those broken windows in Seattle a decade back? Or Muhammad Ali beating up so many people a generation past? Or could it be those Liberal Jihad Theocracies chopping off heads and stoning women? Or perhaps he heard about that time in 1995 when I did an behind the thumb finger snap at that Limbaugh dittohead at my wife’s company picnic? Or maybe Glenn Becks is just insane…
