    David Codrea writing on Oathkeepers -
    Virginia ‘Domestic Terrorism’ Bill is really a Rights-Trampling Power Grab

    The bill “raises ‘significant constitutional concerns,’ particularly with the First Amendment [and] is written in a way that could allow the state government to target minority communities who have ‘unpopular beliefs,’” the report explains. “Specifically, the power that the superintendent of Virginia State Police would hold in labeling groups as domestic terrorist groups — without those groups being notified in advance — is a concern.”

    While ACLU’s concerns are valid, the “minority” group the bill is intended to target does not include people they are overly concerned about. Understanding that the legislation is a Democrat response to Charlottesville, it should come as no surprise that the intent is to take attention away from threats imported through “progressive” cultural and political “fundamental transformation” policies and point a finger and assumption of guilt toward the native-born.

    Look at the two main shakers and movers behind the legislation: Delegate Marcia “Cia” Price and Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring, both “progressive” anti-gun / pro-“immigration” Democrats. So naturally they have no problem limiting rights to freely assemble and associate based on an edict that “defines domestic terrorism as a violent or criminal act that aims to intimidate or instill fear in someone because of their race, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation or disability, or to stop someone from pursuing their constitutional rights.”

    “Price’s bill would require the Virginia State Police superintendent to identify groups that meet the definition of a domestic terrorist organization and to list them annually in the Virginia Register of Regulations, which is a guiding document for state agencies,” the report elaborates. “The bill would require local police departments to report acts of domestic terrorism to the State Police, but those reports could be withheld from the public.”

    What could go wrong, not only in giving police such powers to designate who’s who in “domestic terrorism,” but also in keeping the citizens they supposedly work for in the dark?

    I believe if the liberals have any chance , they would label us and jail us that is how tolerant they are of free thinkers and free men .

    Members of any club or organization whose charter is to challenge the authority of the government on constitutional grounds should it come down to it... heck yes the gov'mt is interested in you. Particularly if you self-identify as "militia" that's a hot button. The only thing stopping them from making you a prohibited person and confiscating your arms tomorrow is that so many are also active duty LEOs or service members. The govm't can't shoot themselves in the foot.

    The irony is, of course, that the very swearing to defend the Constitution as part of your oath of service is totally in keeping with refusing to act on orders that run counter to it.

    But of course, the gov'mt doesn't understand irony nor what it means to be a "patriot" even if it means your actions could be considered treasonous but still in defense of country.

    Yes, in a nutshell members of these orgs will be labeled as "domestic terrorists" as soon as said gov'mt feels sufficiently threatened. Libs would probably like to see it done long before then. They are trying to lay the legal groundwork to make it happen wherever they can. At the very least they are running smear campaigns to paint anyone who identifies with the cause as racist or white nationalists (and to be fair most of us are white dudes). They are already trying to win hearts and minds long before the 3% becomes necessary.

    It's nothing but a ploy to demonize political opponents and attempt to fire up the Dem base to get them to vote this November.

    Occasionally I check on the daily Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency bulletins. The first threat item is always:
    National Terrorism Advisory System: The United States remains in a heightened threat environment, as noted in the previous Bulletin, and several recent attacks have highlighted the dynamic and complex nature of the threat environment. In the coming months, we expect the threat environment to become more dynamic as several high-profile events could be exploited to justify acts of violence against a range of possible targets. These targets could include public gatherings, faith-based institutions, schools, racial and religious minorities, government facilities and personnel, U.S. critical infrastructure, the media, and perceived ideological opponents. Threat actors have recently mobilized to violence due to factors such as personal grievances, reactions to current events, and adherence to violent extremist ideologies, including racially or ethnically motivated or anti-government/anti-authority violent extremism. Foreign adversaries—including terrorist organizations and nation state adversaries—also remain intent on exploiting the threat environment to promote or inspire violence, sow discord, or undermine U.S. democratic institutions. We continue to assess that the primary threat of mass casualty violence in the United States stems from lone offenders and small groups motivated by a range of ideological beliefs and/or personal grievances.
    emphasis mine.

    The left is the Nazi's in this scenario and the right are the Jewish people. This is another page out of Hitlers playbook. The left uses it as an instruction manual. They are at the get the firearms step. The boxcars are next.

    Some public servants may end up answering uncomfortable questions.

    Probe of Oath Keepers finds hundreds of public servants in its ranks​

    And the problem is??

    A (ever expanding) probe of the Democrat party would find many public "servants" in it.
    AND I can Gur-N-Tee the democrat party has killed more people and cause more misery in the last years than a thousand "Oath Keepers" groups has.

    Anyone who goes against the globalist liberal bolshevik agenda is considered one. History has shown us time and time again they will use all the power at their disposal to go after dissidents.

    If any Conservatives, including those Maga Republicans, were really terrorists then those Progressive Socialist Democrats would be waking up with their throats slit.

    If Maga-Republicans or Oath Keepers were bent on taking over the State and Federal Governments then they would be dumping the bodies of those AntiFa, BLM and Anarchists Protestors into mass graves with bulldozers.
