Home-grown terrorists collecting names

The real threat in America, which the media ignores:

Sovereign citizens groups are scary. For police officers, they’re violent extremists. Now at least one group of sovereign citizens duped young people into collecting the addresses of police officers and other first responders in Austin, Texas.

An FBI alert from the bureau’s San Antonio Division — obtained in August by the non-profit Web site Public Intelligence — details the creepy scheme.

Through late July of last year, small teams of “young individuals” combed through neighborhoods in Austin knocking on doors, according to the alert. When someone answered, the canvassers explained they worked for a fundraising group that helps students master public speaking.

As part of their training — the teams explained — they needed to learn about the professions of the people they spoke with.

The canvassers were then awarded points based on the job of the person they talked to. Different jobs were worth different points. The kids carried yellow note cards that referenced the 15 jobs worth points and their value. The list included professions such as nurse, doctor, and firefighter.

Police officers were worth 2,000 points, the highest value.

In exchange for points, the organizers promised cash prizes and scholarships. More cops and firefighters meant more money.

The alert also explained that the students, “carried a paper card stating the individuals who were in possession of the card were allowed to be doing what they were doing per constitutional law and they were not required to show any identification or be restricted from their duties by state or local officials.”

The card carried no contact information for any organization. The canvassers showed the card to anyone asking questions.

In truth, there was no group geared towards improving the public speaking skills of young people. There were no scholarships or money. A sovereign citizens group — the FBI believes — conned the kids into doing their dirty work. This whole thing was just a clever way for domestic extremists to collect the addresses of first responders.

  1. The media including the so-called liberal media either ignores or pretends to be confused about why things happen. Take the example of the three teenage girls from the US who were prevented from joining ISIS a few weeks back. Text messages from one of the girls was made public today. In June and July this girl harshly criticized ISIS and its tactics. By early September this girl and her two friends were on their way to Syria to join up with ISIS. All day today the media has been asking what could have changed this girls attitude about ISIS so quickly. What radicalized these girls in such a short time they wanted to know. The conclusion the media came to was that the ISIS group was a master of social media. What a load of shit. On August 5th, Obama began bombing the crap out of ISIS. Once again the US of A was sticking its nose where it didn’t belong. That’s what radicalized these young ladies.

  2. I’m sure these folks’ movements and communications are well known to the FBI and other agencies (just like everybody else’s). If nobody says or does anything about their activities, it is only because they are too afraid. The media afraid of physical retaliation, and the politicians and pundit afraid of pissing off Rush or Glen Beck or whomever. Just like they knew the Saudis were behind Al Qaeda in 2001, and are currently supporting ISIS, the war on terror will be redirected to suit their political goals. If the Koch brothers are financing this stuff, it is off limits for the FBI or anyone else.
