Thread: Right-wing domestic terrorists

Personally, i think the government is worried they are losing their make believe credibility.

Is US society starting to become unravelled with all the violent, hate filled ultra-patriotic propaganda they have been fed over the past few decades?

The country has been doing pretty well living off debt to other countries who actually work to produce things that sustain their standard of living over the past few decades.

Now the pigeons are coming home to roost, who are the extremists going to blame? Reds under the beds? Joos? Negros? Muslims? The anti gun lobby?

The ultra right wing, Christian, white extremists have plenty of followers including a few here on the board. Even the most recent past US president who was voted to serve two consecutive terms. There must be tens of millions of those brainwashed nutters out there. Mostly well armed with all kinds of weapons as is their right under the US constitution. A pretty scary situation.

But of course most of these types are basically paranoid cowards who live their lives based on fear and holed up in their bunker with loads of guns. Its unlikely there will ever be an armed uprising by their ilk in the USA because, in the end they really dont have the courage to stand up and fight for what they claim to believe in. But it certainly is likely that there will be instances of loony individuals committing hate murders to impress their political point of view. That kind of tragedy Appears to be on the increase in USA and can be expected to continue as the economy deteriorates.

Hey! You gotta blame someone. Why not just kill em? Its the American way after all. And its all that much easier to do if they are somehow different.

I think ducks would be a better metaphor, their arguments are so flawed and they are so inflexible in their opinions that it really is a duck shoot every time they make themselves noticed with their ignorance.

Jesus Jones specialises in cut and paste, but try and debate with him on the topics he raises and you'll find he is irrational and misguided, to put it politely.

Jet is an agent provocoteur that prefers to evade questioning and will try to change the subject once she is on the back foot and then resorts to hit and run tactics to prolong any argument.

I'd trade the pair of them in for Boon Mee anyday, he did what they are both attempting with style, a sense of humour and an awareness of the irony in right wing propaganda. He at least is smart enough to know that the game is up for the hard right and has got better things to do.

Well said, Robby.
