Vanderboegh warns against ‘delegitimized’ government at Texas rally

“Now let me show you who some members of law enforcement think is the enemy, who they train daily to engage and kill,” he announced as a poster portraying a stereotypical militia member was handed up to him to show the crowd. “This is a target used by the New Mexico Department of Public Safety."

Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes the "enemy" the government is training paramilitary law enforcement to destroy looks just like ... uh ... some of us?

Downtown hospitality industry management have warned their staff to be careful when entering and leaving the city for work, not to bring backpacks, or look suspicious in any way because DHS and FBI agents will be conducting searches and seizures. As the city prepares for the festival DHS and FBI agents have already been seen around the downtown area blocking off bridges and bringing in equipment. [More]

Casa de la Muerte

The assertion that Comey played a role in the House of Death cover-up, in light of his pending nomination to be the top dog at the FBI, should be a big deal, given one of the FBI’s jobs is to handle informants during criminal investigations, and to also deal with the intricacies and sensitivities of law enforcement operations carried out on foreign soil ... However, the allegation that he did play some role in the cover-up is not based on a flimsy six-degrees-of-separation conspiracy theory. There is a long paper trail illuminating the facts ... again, ignored to this day by a commercial media now fawning over the impending nomination of Comey as the next FBI director. [More]

He ought to fit right in.

EXCLUSIVE: Police State Europe

“She said further terror attacks on the UK were inevitable unless the country became a ‘police state,’” the report continued. That means being able to protect themselves as government policies devolve their culture into chaos will not be an option for ordinary people, as a “monopoly of violence” remains the exclusive province of the state.

Me, I'm glad lunatics like him exist  -- they unify gun owner resolve and show "progressives" for what they truly are.
