domestic terrorism

2007-05-10 16:10:42.451336+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

I don't for a moment want to downplay the risks to American troops, especially in light of the alleged attacks being planned in New Jersey, but I hope that Bryant will forgive me quoting an entry he made, in its entirety:

130 homemade hand grenades, a grenade launcher, another 70 hand grenades rigged to be fired from a rifle, a machine gun, a short-barrel shotgun and 2,500 rounds of ammunition.

Muslim radicals planning an attack on an army base? Nah. Five militia members in Alabama plotting to kill a bunch of Mexicans.

Oddly, this does not get as much press as the Muslims. Some domestic terrorism is just more interesting, I guess.
