You know, if they keep screwing with citizens exercising their constitutional rights they will eventually start getting what they don't want. I hope it never escalates to any real violence but I fear that it isn't too far down the road if we stay on this same road.

A lot of us have seen this coming for the past few years but, too many people mistakenly thought " it will never happen here in America!"
Hopefully, the Obama adgenda has opened the eyes of America and we can win with the ballot in the next couple of years! If not, the whole Constitution and the America that our fore fathers created is doomed!

If your mother was an abortion proponent, would you be reading this right now?
Not much information out there yet, and I would suggest it is too early to make any judgments. I heard the raided group had made threats against Islamic groups. It is against the law to threaten physical harm to people. If you think the law is going to turn a blind eye to law breaking, you may be putting yourself in a vulnerable position. But I'll withhold judgment until further information becomes available, and I suggest the members here do likewise.
Right i agree..
Saw a small piece about this on the evening news - it was very vague & i wondered right away what the charges would be for those charged- guess we will find out.

I'm waiting, but while I wait I wonder how enraged people will be if it does turn out these people did little wrong? (always find something). The talk so far tries to paint them as bad for being Christan, disliking the UN, shooting guns and preparing to defend themselves. Real bad guys. The also had a flag, woopie and they lived in a woods, wow.
How many states will create a ruckus over this if it turns out it's a clear violation of the individuals rights? If they don't you might as well expect a "health care style" reform of individual freedoms, it should be expected anyways. Why shouldn't anyone expect them not too when they didn't do it for the unborn or smokers just to name 2? Freedom for all or there will be freedom for none even if it means protecting the freedom for only a handful. The states must do it as they are the ones with the power. These militia people are delusional if they think they can be a defense with their little guns, the state is where they should try and secure their defense and our government as much as shouted it from the roof tops when it was founded. THEY ARE FREE TO BE DELUSIONAL AND SHOULD BE PROTECTED BY THE STATE as long as they don't infringe on others personal liberties. What will these 3 states involved do on their behalf? The answer will tell us what kind of future we can expect.
Many gave a pass to that black professors freedoms who was arrested wrongly, fortunately the courts righted that wrong. Be thankful for if it turns out these guys were just expressing their freedoms, that case may just be their defense as it should be.
You know where the authority to do this came from, that's right a republican, the patriot act. That's just the way it works, some very well meaning politician convinces a country to give up it's rights for noble reasons and people blindly forget that this guy isn't going to be the power behind this forever, someone else is coming and if history proves anything it proves they wont be so noble.
Just did a little research. Seems like the militia groups wanted nothing to do with the Hutaree. The Hutaree is a John Brown type organization that wants a civil war with the US. Apparently they believe that Obama is the Anti-Christ.
Something is basically wrong with an organization that has an "Evil Jew" forum on its website.
I just saw this story reported on FNC, they said authorities confiscated as may as 2 DOZENS GUNS!!!! so #@$%'n what? thats a crime? sounds more like an average hunters collection, not to mention everygun was probably purchased after a federal NICS check. "Christain milita" gimme a break! with all the bloods, crips, islamic terror cells, and the drug dealers on the southern border, eric holder and obama go after harmless christians, nice
