Are you a domestic terrorist?

[Bassbob]

According to the Biden DHS, if you oppose government Covid restrictions or have questions about possible fraud during the 2020 national elections you just might be.

Seems like I read almost the same thing in ‘The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich’. Very similar.

Guess they just put on paper and acknowledged that Antifa is a terrorist group. Lets see if they act upon that

Notice the DOJ used the wording of “perceived” rather than actual….

wow, just wow …

how about the Admin work on crime and policing in the cities with the worst crime in decades

It looks to me like it's the "continued, non-specific calls for violence on multiple online platforms" that the DOJ is worried about, not people being opposed to Covid restrictions of thinking there was fraud in the election. I suppose if someone calls for violence because they oppose masks or vaccinations they might be considered a terrorist.

I guess if that is the standard then yes....I am. I am also a nationalist...and an America loving patriot. Guilty!!

Personally who even listens to anything this administration says, the whole administration is incompetent.

"These actors are increasingly exploiting online forums to influence and spread violent extremist narratives and promote violent activity."

You think they mean us?

No I don't. I don't remember much extremism on here and we have no calls for violence.

 

[Recusant]

I don't think so as well and that speaks to the lawful character of our members here. But the anti-gun crowd rhetoric fosters the idea that owning guns is extreme and if you enjoy shooting them then you must have a propensity for violence. Why else would they want to ban them all? I just hope we don't get caught up in the witch hunt. That's all.

I can only assume that you didn't actually read the government warning.
