Sher, they need probable cause to get a warrant, and truly exigent circumstances to enter without it. I have had some of the worst neighbors in the world, one of whom picked a fight with me and then said I had made a death threat. Upon interviewing both me and her, they basically told her to not start crap with people over sixty-five, as the law frowns thereon.

Sher-w-u I don’t see anyone here asking to give up their civil liberties. And since you sound as though you’re speaking from experience, how about you pick up any beer cans that land in your neighbor’s yard!

I’m surprised how many of the comments are willing to give up civil rights for others. It is a good thing when police follow the law. Try to think into the future. There are survivalist’s in every state.

Maybe one of your neighbors complained about you. How should the police handle that? You know you are innocent, you know your neighbor is angry because a beer can was found in his back yard on your side of his yard. He wants to get even and willing to let the police do it for him.

With all this reporting by the News Media and the SPLC, exposes these sick organizations from flourishing. Just think that in the late 1940′s thru the early 1960′s, the public had no idea of their existence.

I have recently come accross a very interesting book titled ” Theory of Cognitive Dissonance” and I have found the research to help me understand further the possible reasons that persons such as this man in the above article, and in fact why many such people resort to hate and violence against others.
This does not provide “excuse” nor does it condone this behavior, but is merely a vehicle for “understanding” this behavior.
I think it would be good reading for the many various public servants to read it, and give them insight as to possible ways to help combat this type of behavior, and for us, the Citizens, to help us “identify” these elements in those that inhabit our communities.

I guess the days of “The Bridges of Madison County” are over huh? This country has lost it’s mind. It seems like all we can do any more is sit back and observe the insanity we are all in danger of facing almost every day. It feels like we are living in a war zone in this country more and more all the time. Who needs outside enemies when we keep growing our own home grown brand of lunatic.

I read several of the “Dune” novels and saw the movie: a thing well shot, but in consideration of the numerous cans of custard they must have used up shooting a certain sequence, I hope never to see again.

Our government have for years ignored these White terrorist groups here at home, while destroying terrorist outside the country. I ask, what is the difference, shouldn’t our government destroy these White terrorist groups? They destroyed Black groups in this country that were not even terrorist.

Paul “Maud Dib” Atreides, I would remind you, in order to assure the survival of humanity and civilization and to guarantee the golden path (the continued and continuous spread of humanity throughout the multiverse from, I would remind you, a million world empire already) established the most authoritarian and repressive regime seen, with the possible exception of the machine state prior to the Butlerian Jihad, ever. Leto II carried on the tradition after Alia gave in to abomination – and continued it for thousands of years until the cycle renewed. Of all the literary characters you could have picked.to represent your Right wing (Objectivist?) views — that is without question the least logical one you could have selected.

As a country we need to dig deeper into the festering beliefs and propaganda that infuse citizens with such hate. Sure we study it at a collegiate level, and I’m sure there are those who study it at a professional level; but it still remains a problem that has obviously dug into the deep recesses of hidden areas and found even more monstrous individuals who push hate to the levels of violence.
It does not matter that these terrorists are American Citizens, it is my belief that they should be treated as any enemy combatant.

Of course, Kiwi. The Kwisatch Haderach does not consider himself civilized.

“Anne Kiley- where in the article does it mention how well the department is funded? You’re making an equivocation based on information you may not possess.”

No, it’s not an equivocation, which is a statement that misleads by using ambiguous language. There was nothing ambiguous about her statement. You could label it speculative or conjectural, but it’s definitely not equivocal. So you’ve demonstrated that you like to use words you don’t know the meaning of.

“But that’s typical ‘progressive’ speak. Assume all of our problems are proportional to the amount of cash the government steals from us. Why don’t you send them a generous donation to help?”

Your claims appear to be typical “anti-government zealot” speak. What do you mean by “cash the government steals from us”? I’ve never had a government steal cash from me. If you’re referring to taxation, you’re deploying loaded, inflammatory and misleading language to describe it.

Taxation is not theft; in return for your tax payments, you receive a wide variety of services, without which you would have a very hard time earning a living or raising a family. Thus, taxes are, in effect, fees paid for services rendered.

Now, if you’re like most other anti-government zealots, you’ll probably want to claim that the Founding Fathers didn’t intend things to work this way. However, to do so, you’ll have to ignore or explain away the plain meaning of their own explanation of what their purpose was in drafting the U.S. Constitution:

“We the People of the United States, in Order to Form a more perfect Union, Establish Justice, Insure domestic Tranquility, Provide for the common defence, Promote the general Welfare, and Secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”

Presumably, you approve of our capitalist economic system. So is there some reason you’d like to advance to explain why you should be exempted from paying your share of the cost of civilization?

This is very important stuff to know because without reporting the activities and finds of these supremacists the public will be less on guard. And quite frankly I want to know if there is a hate group that has a stronghold in an area because that is no place I would want to settle down. We need strong communities that take active participation in reporting them and stopping their activities.
The racist that I have witnessed here in the Wisconsin area are big on clandestine type operations. They harass and try to stay under the radar of the Federal Government. But they coordinate efforts to intimidate and coerce based on a racist agenda. And I believe that there is a lot of it going on but there is a failure to report it and a failure to recognize it for what it is: it reminds me of some of what I am reading in Morris Dees Book about how the Klan was sending calling cards and then setting out to disrupt the lives of the Vietnamese.

But in order for groups like this to exist there must be a community that embraces and allows this sort of cancer to exist in it.
Anyone who believes in Civil liberties should find that very disturbing and I further believe that when groups such as these fester in communities they can grow with more violent intent because no one is standing up to stop them while they wage their wars upon free American Citizens.

I’d like to know what on earth this jerk was planning to do with all this deadly stuff. I can only speculate.

What frightens me is knowing that there are heaps of people out there who look at what happened in Newtown and want to do something bigger than that…and then do so.

” The suspect, whose name hasn’t been released, has not been charged while authorities discuss whether to proceed with state or federal charges.” Isn’t this lack of action itself insane? Can’t authorities put him in a mental hospital on a 72-hour hold, at least?

“…her department had received the initial complaint in May..” In MAY! This is a perfect example of what happens when health and social servic agencies are underfunded. Just imagine what this clown could have done since MAY! It’s a disgrace.

to Bill Martin – I’m from Connecticut and although Connecticut is small, Newtown and Stamford are very different communities. Stamford is considered a bedroom community of New York. I find these incidents particularly disturbing after reading about SPLC’s excellent coverage of groups like The Connecticut White Wolves and Sovereigns in general. I left Connecticut in the mid 1970′s. After reading about incidents in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New England it’s starting to feel surreal.

About the only relevance of this disgusting find to the normal business of SPLC that I can see is the ease with which the dangerous, bigoted, and paranoid in our society can get access to the means of murder.
