Oklahoma woman's death prompts look at 'home-grown' white supremacist set

... Mark Pitcavage, director of investigative research for the Anti-Defamation League, said he is surprised by how little is known of the Bogalusa-based group, the Sons of Dixie Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. Lynch’s death will likely change that unknown status ...

"There are over 40 different Klan groups in the United States, ranging from small, single-chapter groups to large, multichapter groups in several states,” Pitcavage said.

"Nobody’s ever heard of this group before. We track extremist groups all over the country. Even our New Orleans office hasn’t heard of these people. This group was completely off the radar screen” ...

Little home-grown rightwing terrorist cells have cost us dearly in the past, as at Oklahoma City

1. Her name was Lynch? The irony.
These people just freak me out. The worst hype about Bill Ayers pales in comparison to these r/w terrorists.

3. I'm willing to wager that at least one member of this group
personally attended a Palin rally. If not all of them.

4. Instead if going after people with funny sounding names and peaceful protesters we
should be checking out some of these whackos who are running around in the woods playing war games.

5. Oh, but Grandmas' knitting circles and Quaker meetings
are such bastions of bomb-throwing terror :sarcasm:

I've been bitching for 6 years now about how these hate groups were growing right under everyone's noses and yet the FBI and Vaterlands Security have been going after everything except. And just how many actual terrorists have they caught for all the spying and prying? Zero. Nada. Nadie. Personne. Not one. Yet they've stuck their noses up every peaceable person's bumhole while the klan and the aryan thugs and the radical wackogelicals have been recruiting by the thousands. That, being done with the tacit approval and encouragement directly from the RNC and the Bush/neoKKKon cabal.

A normal person isn't safe. Period. And it is squarely Bush and the neoKKKons' fault. I blame every right-winger and dumbass who voted Repuke for that woman's death. Yes, she should have known better, but she wouldn't have had the opportunity if DHS and the FBI had been doing their jobs instead of spying on innocent Americans, like grandmas' knitting circles and pacifists. Her blood is absolutely on their hands and they'll have to explain their role in it to G'd.

6. To be fair, some of those knitting needles are fearsome indeed.

Those big fat ones could skewer you good. They should at least be regulated if not banned outright. Probably would be if it weren't for the NKNA (National Knitting Needle Association) and their campaign contributions to politicians.
