More Fizzle than Fight?

There's more fizzle than fight among self-styled militias and other groups right now, they say, and little chance of a return to the organized violence that proved so deadly in the 1990s. [More]
If true, why all the media hysteria?

I'm not buying the "official" story. Somebody in blue would have died if there were any truth to the allegations, and then everybody in a half mile radius would have been killed in retaliation by the survivors in blue.

"... organized violence that proved so deadly in the 1990s."

I guess I'm a little slow on the uptake. The only examples of deadly organized violence that I recall from the 1990s were conducted by the government. Think Waco and Ruby Ridge. Those were "organized" and deadly and in the 1990s.

I had the impression the "militia movement" of the 1990s was a response to that.
