What makes someone a terrorist? Should people who express dissenting opinions, who act in a ‘confrontational’ manner automatically ‘domestic terrorists’? The White House seems to think so.
Lisa Monaco stated as much on PBS News Hour. She’s Assistant to the President for Homeland Security. She indicated one of the warning signs of ‘domestic terrorism’ that Americans could be missing is kids who become more confrontational. Does that sound right? Almost all teens go through a confrontational phase, so does that mean we should brand them or anyone else who appears ‘confrontational’ a terrorist? Sounds crazy, right?
Harry Reid seems to consider the peaceful protesters at the Bundy Ranch to be domestic terrorists just because they resist the Bureau of Land Management’s heavy-handed bullying and their illegal vandalism and treatment of livestock stolen from Bundy.
Senator Reid and other Democrats believe they can coerce and intimidate Americans, threatening violence and then claim anyone who doesn’t support their skewed view of the world, anyone who stands up and dares to argue is a ‘domestic terrorist’.
I’m a domestic terrorist I guess because I express my dissenting opinion whereever I see inequities……At my age they can only kill me or throw me in jail but either way I’ll have the last word as that is my freedom that I will fight for!
I have been considered a certified right wing extremist by Homeland Security ever since I participated in the first Tea Party rally in DC. I’m very proud of that.
Obama is the traitor terriost person a liar, a thief and a communist or socialist and he will be treid for treason
First Moosechelle, then the always-execrable Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, and now this one…are ALL the women connected in any sort of “official” way with Li’l Obambam total zit-brains, or is it just most of them, and we haven’t heard anything recently from any of them that actually has two or more brain-cells to rub together?
The federal government has become tyrannical, there can be no question about that among sane people. They need to be shown that the ‘people’ are still in charge. That’s what’s beginning to happen now around the country. The people are fed up and beginning to exercise their rights under the Constitution and the Fed is getting worried so they are going to call any resistance or confrontations, however peaceful, terrorism. The word terrorism has become a catchall for any kind of disagreement with governmental authority. But, the fact remains, we the people are in charge of this government but we have been lazy about not keeping it in check and you see what has been the result. So now it is past time to rein them in and they are not going to like it. But it must and will be done.
So if you disagree with the government, and challenge, you are a terrorist. $#%&!@* you communist pig. Go to north Korea or cuba and spread your socialist don’t question the state bull$#%&!@*.
I guess all those involved in occupy Wall Street are terrorists then. Better round them up!!! She’s clueless!!!
I am 62 and retired Navy. I’ve made a career pissin people off so if some liberal, socialist, Muslim wants offended them I am your huckleberry.
