Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”

The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

DOJ: Your Bumper Sticker May Indicate You’re A Terrorist

The Department of Justice funded a training manual used in the State and Local Anti-terrorism Training (SLATT) program for law enforcement. Apparently certain political bumper stickers can put you on the “could be a terrorist” list, including opposition to the United Nations and support for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

The documents were leaked to the Public Intelligence website and are titled Terrorism Training For Law Enforcement. They are also labeled as “law enforcement sensitive.”


Paul Joseph Watson reports,

One of the slides – entitled “Fourth Amendment Issues” – notes that “a suspicious map located on the passenger seat” could warrant further investigation as a potential indicator of terrorism.

Another slide entitled “General Right Wing Extremist” – depicts suspicious bumper stickers that should warrant further investigation by cops conducting traffic stops.

The bumper stickers read, “Know Your Rights Or Lose Them,” and “If You Love Your Country, the U.N. Is Not Your Friend!,” and “Get US Out Of the United Nations”.

Under the category of “Special-Interest/Single Issue Terrorism,” the slide characterizes people who hold political opinions that “represent a fairly popular point of view” as terrorists. Anti-abortion activists are also listed as terrorists under this category.

Slides in the presentation also demonstrate how simple everyday, patriotic Americans are now in the sights of law enforcement and considered potential terrorists by definition in this manual. Take a look at the slides from the manual below:

Can Your Pro-Life Bumper Sticker Actually Get You in Trouble?

When George W. Bush was running for re-election in 2004, someone I know who lives in the greater Los Angeles area put a bumper sticker with the president's name on his vehicle. When he returned to his car one day, someone who didn't share his enthusiasm for Bush had smashed the bumper where the sticker was with a hammer, causing lots of damage.
I knew Bush was unpopular in some circles, but that seemed a bit much.

Writer Tim Brown recently (9/21/2012) posted an article on FreedomOutpost.com entitled, "DOJ: Your Bumper Sticker May Indicate You're A Terrorist."

Brown writes, "The Department of Justice funded a training manual used in the State and Local Anti-terrorism Training (SLATT) program for law enforcement. Apparently certain political bumper stickers can put you on the 'could be a terrorist' list, including opposition to the United Nations and support for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights." Included in that list are those who oppose abortion.

This seems to fit with a fascist pattern: Free speech for me, but not for thee. What is free speech if it isn't really free?

This kind of thing would never pass constitutional muster. Twenty years ago, the High Court caused quite a controversy when they declared that burning a U.S. flag is protected free speech.

If that is the case, then how much more should bumper stickers be considered free speech?

Here's the verbatim wording found on two of the pages of the DOJ training manual:

Terrorism Training for Law Enforcement
Special-Interest/Single Issue Terrorism

∙Extremists who seek to force the government or population to alter a specific aspect within the country
∙Usually do not seek to overthrow or greatly alter the government
∙Often represent a fairly popular point of view

p. 13 of BJA- SLATT Program Law Enforcement Sensitive

Special-Interest/Single Issue Terrorism (continued)

∙Most common areas of concern are
∙Animal rights
∙Antigenetic engineering
∙Antiabortion

p. 14 of BJA- SLATT Program Law Enforcement Sensitive

"Anti-abortion"? "Often represent a fairly popular point of view"? It's disturbing when the views of ordinary Americans could be categorized as dangerous to society.

This reminds me of the report from April 2009, under the direction of Janet Napolitano, the head of the Department of Homeland Security, entitled: "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment."

A footnote on p. 2 of this document states: "Rightwing extremism in the United States can be broadly divided into those groups, movements, and adherents that are primarily hate-oriented (based on hatred of particular religious, racial or ethnic groups), and those that are mainly antigovernment, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority, or rejecting government authority entirely. It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration."

Since abortion comes up as an issue in both of these government documents, I think it worthy of addressing. The people who are pro-life tend to be consistently pro-life. For example, they do not sanction the killing of abortion doctors or personnel.

When I read the leading atheist's book of our day, Richard Dawkins' The God Delusion, I was intrigued by a phrase he occasionally used, "the American Taliban." Who was he referring to? Finally, I realized he was talking about those who kill abortion-related personnel.

But you can count on one hand people who fit in that category. They are not in the mainstream of the pro-life movement. Only one or two that I know of were even professing Christians. That's not the way of Christ. It never has been and it never will be.

Suppose someone had killed the late Dr. Bernard Nathanson before he had repented and became pro-life? Dr. Nathanson had presided over 60,000 abortions. The same applies for Carol Everett, who was partly responsible for 35,000 abortions, as a part owner of a few abortion clinics in the Dallas area. Today she is staunchly pro-life. And no, she's not a terrorist.

In a day where your bumper sticker might get you in trouble, we should remember that tolerance should apply to all-even to those who hold politically incorrect views. True tolerance, which means respect for those with whom we disagree, seems to be disappearing in our time. I believe it's because of the disappearance of Christian influence in public discourse.

Above all, it's disturbing when government documents display intolerance of those with differing views than the policy makers. Such is the way of political correctness. But if that's the case---so be it. Those of us in favor of life should not be intimidated, even in what messages we may choose to put on the bumpers of our cars.

Man says parking officer criticized Mitt Romney bumper sticker

An Atlanta man says a parking officer criticized his Mitt Romney bumper sticker and then slapped a ticket on his vehicle. The Georgia Republican Party is incensed about the incident and is urging Mayor Kasim Reed to speak out.

The motorist admits that he was illegally parked, but is upset over the ticketing officer's reaction to the bumper sticker.

"I overheard her say that, when she saw the sticker on the back of my car, the Mitt Romney sticker, ‘Oh, I'm definitely going to give you a ticket now,'" he said.

Georgia Republican Party Chairman Sue Everhart said she was surprised to hear of the incident.

"I am just amazed that this happened in this city, and I know this is not what Mayor Reed would like to see his employees do. It reflects on the whole city," said Everhart.

The motorist said that he'll pay the ticket, but thinks that he's due an apology.

"It sounded like she was almost insulted by the fact that I had a Mitt Romney sticker on the back of my car," he said.

The mayor's office and Park Atlanta, the company the enforces parking in the city, had not responded to FOX 5's request for comment as of Thursday afternoon.

DoD Training Manual: ‘Extremist’ Founding Fathers ‘Would Not Be Welcome In Today’s Military’

Material lists people concerned with “individual liberties, states’ rights, and how to make the world a better place” as potential extremists

Adan Salazar
Infowars.com
August 24, 2013

Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch recently obtained a Department of Defense training manual which lists people who embrace “individual liberties” and honor “states’ rights,” among other characteristics, as potential “extremists” who are likely to be members of “hate groups.”

dodmanMarked “for training purposes only,” the documents, obtained Thursday through a Freedom of Information Act request submitted in April, include PowerPoint slides and lesson plans, among which is a January 2013 Air Force “student guide” distributed by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute simply entitled “Extremism.”

Judicial Watch’s FOIA request asked for “Any and all records concerning, regarding, or related to the preparation and presentation of training materials on hate groups or hate crimes distributed or used by the Air Force.”

As the group notes, “The document defines extremists as ‘a person who advocates the use of force or violence; advocates supremacist causes based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, or national origin; or otherwise engages to illegally deprive individuals or groups of their civil rights.’”

The manual goes on to bar military personnel from “active participation” in such extremist organization activities as “publicly demonstrating,” “rallying,” “fundraising” and “organizing,” basically denying active-duty military from exercising the rights they so ardently fight to defend.

It begins its introduction of a section titled, “Extremist ideologies,” by describing the American colonists who sought independence from British rule as a historical example of extremism.

“In U.S. history, there are many examples of extremist ideologies and movements. The colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule and the Confederate states who sought to secede from the Northern states are just two examples,” according to the training guide.

In a section drawing inspiration from a 1992 book titled “Nazis, Communists, Klansmen, and Others on the Fringe: Political Extremism in America,” the manual also lists “Doomsday thinking” under “traits or behaviors that tend to represent the extremist style.”

    Extremists often predict dire or catastrophic consequences from a situation or from a failure to follow a specific course, and they tend to exhibit a kind of crisis-mindedness. It can be a Communist takeover, a Nazi revival, nuclear war, earthquakes, floods, or the wrath of God. Whatever it is, it is just around the corner unless we follow their program and listen to their special insight and wisdom, to which only the truly enlightened have access. For extremists, any setback or defeat is the beginning of the end.

“Nowadays,” the manual explains, “instead of dressing in sheets or publicly espousing hate messages, many extremists will talk of individual liberties, states’ rights, and how to make the world a better place.”

Judicial Watch also acknowledges the Southern Poverty Law Center “is listed as a resource for information on hate groups and referenced several times throughout the guide,” even though the group itself was directly responsible for a “hate crime” perpetrated on the Family Research Council after it was listed on the SPLC’s “hate map.”

Infowars readers will find much of the training guide’s contents unsurprising as they merely reinforce what we have exhaustively documented in the past.

In 2009, Infowars obtained the “law enforcement sensitive” contents of a Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) report entitled “The Modern Militia Movement” which listed supporters of presidential candidates Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, and Bob Barr as potential “militia” influenced terrorists.

Also, in July 2012 Infowars blew the lid on a Department of Homeland Security-funded study, produced by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism at the University of Maryland, that characterized Americans who are “suspicious of centralized federal authority,” and “reverent of individual liberty” as “extreme right-wing” terrorists.

Indeed, the latest report echoes scenes from Alex Jones’ prescient documentary 9/11: The Road to Tyranny, made over a decade ago, which covered the fact that FEMA and other government bureaus have been training law enforcement agencies to regard the Founding Fathers as terrorists.

72 Types Of Americans That Are Considered “Potential Terrorists” In Official Government Documents

Are you a conservative, a libertarian, a Christian or a gun owner?  Are you opposed to abortion, globalism, Communism, illegal immigration, the United Nations or the New World Order?  Do you believe in conspiracy theories, do you believe that we are living in the “end times” or do you ever visit alternative news websites (such as this one)?  If you answered yes to any of those questions, you are a “potential terrorist” according to official U.S. government documents.  At one time, the term “terrorist” was used very narrowly.  The government applied that label to people like Osama bin Laden and other Islamic jihadists.  But now the Obama administration is removing all references to Islam from terror training materials, and instead the term “terrorist” is being applied to large groups of American citizens.  And if you are a “terrorist”, that means that you have no rights and the government can treat you just like it treats the terrorists that are being held at Guantanamo Bay.  So if you belong to a group of people that is now being referred to as “potential terrorists”, please don’t take it as a joke.  The first step to persecuting any group of people is to demonize them.  And right now large groups of peaceful, law-abiding citizens are being ruthlessly demonized.
 
Below is a list of 72 types of Americans that are considered to be “extremists” and “potential terrorists” in official U.S. government documents.  To see the original source document for each point, just click on the link.  As you can see, this list covers most of the country…

2. Those that advocate for states’ rights
 
3. Those that want “to make the world a better place”

5. Those that are interested in “defeating the Communists”
 
6. Those that believe “that the interests of one’s own nation are separate from the interests of other nations or the common interest of all nations”
 
7. Anyone that holds a “political ideology that considers the state to be unnecessary, harmful,or undesirable”
 
8. Anyone that possesses an “intolerance toward other religions”
 
9. Those that “take action to fight against the exploitation of the environment and/or animals”
 
10. “Anti-Gay”

29. Those that “don’t think they should have to pay taxes”
 
30. Anyone that “complains about bias”
 
31. Anyone that “believes in government conspiracies to the point of paranoia”
 
32. Anyone that “is frustrated with mainstream ideologies”
 
33. Anyone that “visits extremist websites/blogs”

34. Anyone that “establishes website/blog to display extremist views”
 
35. Anyone that “attends rallies for extremist causes”
 
36. Anyone that “exhibits extreme religious intolerance”
 
37. Anyone that “is personally connected with a grievance”
 
38. Anyone that “suddenly acquires weapons”
 
39. Anyone that “organizes protests inspired by extremist ideology”
 
40. “Militia or unorganized militia”
 
41. “General right-wing extremist”
 
42. Citizens that have “bumper stickers” that are patriotic or anti-U.N.
 
43. Those that refer to an “Army of God”
 
44. Those that are “fiercely nationalistic (as opposed to universal and international in orientation)”
 
45. Those that are “anti-global”
 
46. Those that are “suspicious of centralized federal authority”
 
47. Those that are “reverent of individual liberty”
 
48. Those that “believe in conspiracy theories”
 
49. Those that have “a belief that one’s personal and/or national ‘way of life’ is under attack”

62. Anyone that is engaged in “ammunition stockpiling”
 
63. Anyone that exhibits “fear of Communist regimes”
 
64. “Anti-abortion activists”
 
65. Those that are against illegal immigration
 
66. Those that talk about “the New World Order” in a “derogatory” manner
 
67. Those that have a negative view of the United Nations
 
68. Those that are opposed “to the collection of federal income taxes”
 
69. Those that supported former presidential candidates Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin and Bob Barr
 
70. Those that display the Gadsden Flag (“Don’t Tread On Me”)
 
71. Those that believe in “end times” prophecies
 
72. Evangelical Christians
 
The groups of people in the list above are considered “problems” that need to be dealt with.  In some of the documents referenced above, members of the military are specifically warned not to have anything to do with such groups.
 
We are moving into a very dangerous time in American history.  You can now be considered a “potential terrorist” just because of your religious or political beliefs.  Free speech is becoming a thing of the past, and we are rapidly becoming an Orwellian society that is the exact opposite of what our founding fathers intended.
 
Please pray for the United States of America.  We definitely need it.
