| DHS Secretary: Right-Wingers Pose Same Threat As Islamic Extremists |
| 2016-06-15 |
| [Daily Caller] One month after the San Bernardino terrorist attack that left 14 innocent people dead, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson told advisors that right wing extremists pose just as much of a threat to the country as Islamic extremists. Johnson made the comments during the Homeland Security Advisory Council's (HSAC) January meeting. City of Austin Mayor Art Acevedo, whom Johnson appointed to HSAC, shifted the discussion to the threat of right-wing extremists, according to the official meeting minutes. "Member Acevedo reminded the Council that the threat from right-wing extremists domestically is just as real as the threat from Islamic extremism," the minutes state. "Right-wing extremists" ... regime code for conservative republican. Johnson echoed the sentiment. "Secretary Johnson agreed and noted that CVE [Subcommittee on Combating Violent Extremism], by definition, is not solely focused on one religion," the minutes state. |

| #15 From FREEREPUBLIC >[Jihad Watch] ISLAMIC STATE CALLS FOR [Domestic Terror = Orlando-Style] ATTACKS ON US THEATERS, HOSPITALS, AND AMUSEMENT PARKS. As inspired or shown in example by Omar Mateen. Sorry, but Histoire' shows clearly that, as a class, RW'ers don't do that, espec as to do so would be destroying, etc. what institutions or traditions the Right had built in society. |

| #14 #10 On Wikipedia, he's listed as a Muslim. So, not unbiased. Well, fuck him. I'm serious. Its really *past* time that we held the adherents of that ideology accountable for the work that certain followers of it perform (and that far too many other followers of it remain silent about). They need to *pick a side*. |

| #13 So can these Govmint extremists name one group of right-wingers who are shooting up the workplace, blowing up the Boston races, beheading people, shooting up gay clubs, military bases, stores, taking buildings down with box cutters and airplanes, and numerous other terrorist acts. No, then STFU and go back to your hole. |

| #11 I think we're screwed, a conclusion I reached the day after the 2008 election. This-- along with a thousand other facts and incidents since then-- just confirms it. |

| #6 The Regime is the biggest threat to national security. The biggest arms dealer to terrorists and terrorist states ever. Supplying arms to "Syrian Rebels" (Al Qaeda) as well as transporting those terrorists tot he U.S.. A murderous regime and Jeh is a part of the terrorist syndicate and should be dealt with accordingly. |

| #5 We are the biggest threat... to stand up to the government overreach and repression. So Mr. Cockbreath Johnson is most likely in fear of those that will most threaten his job and they must be destroyed. Sic semper tyrannis |

| #3 He doesn't seem to have any trouble saying right wing extremists but he does have trouble saying Islamic extremists. Unfortunately, a "right-wing extremist" is a Christian, anyone who disagrees with the ruling body, anyone who owns a firearm, anyone who voted Republican, any Trump follower, ex military, the police, any Tea Party member, anyone unsatisfied with the status quo, anyone who doesn't like Hillary, anyone who doesn't like the MSM, and anyone who posts on this site or similar sites (sarc). |

| #1 RWE is code for devout Christians. These bastards really do have a Final Solution in mind for Christians. At this point, nothing else makes sense. Convince the mushy middle that peaceful people who go to church every Sunday want to kill them (but Muslims do not) and the rest, they hope, will take care of itself. Sick, sick people. |
