Domestic Terrorists in Our Midst

‘Patrolling to detect alleged illegal activity’ while carrying any weapon would (and should) be a felony, according to a law proposed in Arizona.

WND (found via The Uncooperative Blogger) reports that a law proposed in Arizona would make members of border-patrol groups guilty of domestic terrorism. Under Arizona lawmaker Kyrsten Sinema’s bill, members of the Minuteman Project or other border-patrol groups could be prosecuted and forced to serve a minimum six-month jail term.

It is my firm conviction that anyone not formally affiliated with law enforcement, who patrols in search of illegal activity while armed, must be treated as a domestic terrorist and must be disposed of in the proper manner in order that these self-proclaimed defenders of the USA will be unable to pose a threat to law-abiding U.S. citizens (and legal permanent residents) of color .

I end this post with a thought-provoking quote from Rep. Kyrsten Sinema:

“Race-based tactics always lead to violence. Remember, the Ku Klux Klan was the first-ever group to patrol the border between the U.S. and Mexico back in the ’70s” (emphasis mine).
