The right wing militia narrative has been pushed by the media and the Dems for more than a year. It seems like it is really a distraction from the BLM Antifa property damage and bloodshed we have seen for the same time frame.
After the Jan 6th protests at the capitol, we heard quite a bit about the Oath Keepers, but little has actually come in the way of evidence. Some have been locked up since arrest though, presumably because of their supposed danger to the public.
Another group that they are hot on the trail of is called the Grizzly Scouts. No word on which grade school bathroom wall the name came from, but I’m sure they are on the it.
It looks like the way the feds are operating is they find a crime committed by a veteran, then they comb through the digital history of the newly minted militia member to create a conspiracy. This is from Military.com:
An Air Force sergeant accused of killing two law enforcement officers in California last year was part of a rightwing militia known as the Grizzly Scouts that held firearms trainings, scouted protests, and laid out terms of “war” against police, a newspaper reported Monday.
The Santa Cruz Sentinel cited court documents that show the suspected gunman, Steven Carrillo, was not a lone actor but a member of an anti-government group that was preparing for more deadly attacks on law enforcement.
In this case they got the first ingredient, the Air Force vet accused of murder, and then branched out from there to include any legal activity that could be spun as preparation for an insurrection. As far as the plans against police go, they offer this as a blood curdling example:
The filings allege that, in a document entitled “Operations Order,” the militia described law enforcement officers as “enemy forces” and spoke of the possibility of taking some prisoner, writing that, “POWs will be searched for intel and gear, interrogated, stripped naked, blindfolded, driven away and released into the wilderness blindfolded with hands bound.”
That sounds more like a 12 year old boy’s fantasy of villainhood than a real plot. I have a hard time imagining a prosecutor trying to pitch this as serious without covering his mouth and snickering behind his hand.
And we can’t let our guard down, there are still Grizzly Scouts out there:
Most members of the Grizzly Scouts are still at large, federal prosecutors said. The group identifies with a loosely-affiliated, nationwide militia movement that uses the name “Boogaloo” and favors Hawaiian shirts and violent rhetoric[…]
You have to be kidding me.
I hope they never find out about the militia that I am currently the founding and only member of so far. Its called Fighting Fuzzy Bunnies. It is only open to patriots that agree to having a pink rabbit’s foot on their keychain and they have to watch a complete episode of the Teletubbies once a year to prove their mettle.
I haven’t put together a cool looking jacket or tattoo yet, because stick figures would suck, but soon. And the the world better watch out!
I was told the Fuzzy bunnies required not only a pink rabbits foot but you had to wear the secret ears and know the secret hop.
I think that is the LA branch. Those guys are hard core.
That rabbit is dynamite…
No greater danger exists to America, but the Illegitimate Criminal Usurpation that has become D.C..
I find it amazing that they are doing all of this in the open. It is all so blatant and obvious. We couldn’t see the BLM and Antifa riots? Yet they completely gloss over those and construct a fantasy world where imaginary right wingers are under every rock.
