The Department of Homeland Security issued a memo warning of the rise of right wing extremists in the current economic and political environment. Are you a right-wing extremist ?
If you support smaller government, you might be a right-wing extremist.
If you are anti-government, you might be a right-wing extremist.
If you think our immigration laws should be enforced, you might be a right-wing extremist.
If you are against the expansion of social programs, you might be a right-wing extremist.
If you are against restrictions on firearms ownership, you might be a right-wing extremist.
If you publish “propaganda” about any of these things, you might be a right-wing extremist.
If you talk to a military veteran about any of these things, you might be a right-wing extremist.
I guess we’re all enemies of the State now.

Let’s hope we are able to kill them (the statist) with kindness, logic, and reason. Otherwise it will be one nasty war.
It’s a shame that it took the state widening the definition of radical, and not libertarians actually being radical to accomplish this.
I argued with idiot Republicans over and over, do you really want the PATRIOT Act/Campaign Finance Reform/Bank Bailout, etc., lying around for a future Democratic president to use?
Blank stares.
I don’t care about immigration, don’t want small government, nor do I talk to “veterans” (ex-murderers).
I’m an anti-state extremist, hell yeah!

Their partisanship was never principled, so why would they worry about consequences of being unprincipled doublethink morons?
Does anybody want to bet that mises.org is considered a “sovereign-citizen extremist group ”? If you believe in the freedom and power of the individual, you might be part of this “emerging threat”. This article focuses on militia groups, but I doubt DHS stops there. There’s a bogeyman behind every door.
