Teabagger extremists represent a bigger threat to America than ISIS

[Hugabear]

Or any other Islamic boogeyman, for that matter.

In just the past few years, we've already seen several attacks and standoffs with various teabagger types. Yet we really haven't had any instances of Islamic terror within the United States. All of the shootings we've seen so far have been from right-wingers, not Islamic bad guys. These teabaggers and the militias represent a much more serious threat than ISIS could ever hope to be in this country.

5. So IS is more of a threat than the Tea Party to the USA?

Which one shutdown the government and cost us 26 billion dollars?

11. Still better than beheading

If we could bring his life back, I'd trade it for another government shutdown in a second.

12. I meant HERE in the US...not overseas...HERE they are not a threat to the mainland.

I agree, one life is worth more than all the money in the world...but the point is that they are not a threat HERE...the tea part lives HERE and they are a huge threat.

6. Which group has already carried out attacks in the US?

Teabagger extremists are anti-government, well armed, and have made numerous threats. They have their own militia groups. Remember the stand-off with government forces outside the Bundy ranch not too long ago? Or how about the white supremacists who went on a shooting spree in Las Vegas? I'm also pretty sure it wasn't an Islamic terrorist who shot Gabby Giffords.

2. Islamic terrorists are not boogeymen. And there is no reason we can't take them both on.

3. I agree.

Ignorant teabaggers, talibornagains, and RW militia hate groups are a greater danger than muslim fundamentalists half a world away who want to return to the 12th Century.

4. I agree, but that need not mean we should ignore ISIS

8. Teabaggers, Private Militias do not forget KKK, Koch Brothers, Corporate Government and voter apathy

dream of. Hyperbolic you say? Look at where we are today both economically and politically. These goat Fuckers (no offense to Andrew Breitbart) have sabotaged this country to the point that it could be 2008 all over again in a couple of years.

10. People who think ISIS is not a threat to America represent a threat to America.

13. The tea party is clearly in decline

ISIS is not

[Hugabear]

14. Their views aren't changing

The people on the extreme right aren't changing their anti-government, anti-minority, anti-homosexual, anti-women viewpoints.

If they do begin to lose their influence in government, it may actually push them into more violent actions, since they may feel they have no other redress.

15. When that happens. Fine. Until then... Eom

[Hugabear]

16. It's been happening. Open up a newspaper.

The Bundy stand-off, Las Vegas shooting, extremist militias patrolling the border - these are just within the past few months.

[Boom Sound 416]

17. Please don't make me defend the tea party

But those kinds of crimes have been happening long for 2010.

Your OP is about the tea party which is mostly a bunch of white middle classers pissed about things that help them and ISIS.


Yes, their is a fringe and radical element to every movement. ISIS is an army.
