| Defense Department guide: American Revolution fought by 'extremists' |
| 2013-08-27 |
| A Department of Defense (DoD) teaching guide meant to fight extremism advises students that rather than "dressing in sheets" modern-day radicals "will talk of individual liberties, states' rights, and how to make the world a better place." The guide comes from documents obtained by Judicial Watch and is authored by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute, a DoD-funded diversity training center. Under a section titled "extremist ideologies," the document states, "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." Besides a brief reference to 9/11 and another to the Sudanese civil war, the guide makes no mention of Islamic extremism. The guide also repeatedly tells readers to use the Southern Poverty Law Center as a resource in identifying hate groups. |

| #8 If that's where it's going what is there to live for? Trap the bastards, they'll sit when "James Bond" Gets caught by the local law, I can think of may traps that don't involve Movie Heroics and are sure to trap the bastards, Suicide is the only way out. I'd love to hear Obama explain to Sherriff Joe. |

| #6 More likely a quiet lockpicking followed by a silenced pistol three times to the head, and a quiet exit. No suspect, no evidence and no Government troubles, the problem just dies. |

| #5 Where will it end? When you hear knocking on your door at 02:30 am. What makes you think there'll be a polite Knock? |

| #4 Strange, both uniform and civilian government employees have to take an oath to uphold the Constitution, yet here we have an office of people who probably couldn't pass a 'pop quiz' on its content. Just move the office and its personnel to Casco Cove Coast Guard Station. |

| #3 To topple a society, you must first destroy that which they hold dear. Our sons and daughters in uniform are but one example. Other examples are individual privacy, the church, guns, land ownership, and your father's Oldsmobile. |

| #1 I've come to accept the State Department is not on our side, but the DoD? Where will it end? |
