Federal agents on Thursday arrested two men, including the self-proclaimed leader of the Base, a violent, white supremacist group, as part of a continuing crackdown on extremism in Michigan three weeks after the FBI said it thwarted a plot to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, the Detroit News reports.

(16,616 posts)members because that group is made up of individual cells, and it seems to me like arresting the leader might send some of the cells into activation. Also, the individual cells are kept separate and aren't supposed to communicate with each other, so this could be quite a surprise and it's hard to tell what the results of this arrest might be.
Just a though.
PS: Applegrove it's so good to see you. Haven't seen you in awhile.

(23,698 posts)Violent, armed, anti government groups are allowed to threaten ordinary citizens, members of government and journalist is lawlessness and they get away with it because, free speech and 2nd amendment.
However police kill black citizens for at most misdemeanor crimes, or a little boy walking in a park with a play gun.
