Why do Republicans refuse to use the term Republican Terrorist?

[L. Coyote]

I could list the ways, but let's stick to the #BundyTeaParty types and their militia buddies, Republicans and they are terrorists. One of ZTrump's alternate delegates can't go to the convention because he is in jail for his terrrorist activity at the #BundyRanch standoff.

Charges: Utah head of militia tried to detonate bomb at BLM facility in Arizona
By MATTHEW PIPER | The Salt Lake Tribune Jun 23 2016

.... William Keebler, 57, of Stockton, was arrested early Wednesday morning in Nephi and appeared Thursday in U.S. District Court, charged by federal prosecutors with attempting to blow up federal property at an Arizona Strip BLM facility that he had allegedly scouted with Robert LaVoy Finicum.

Keebler is being held in Salt Lake County jail and will have a June 29 detention hearing. He faces five to 20 years in a federal prison if convicted of the charge.

Charging documents say Keebler is the commander of a citizen militia group headquartered in Stockton. He was present at the April 2014 standoff with federal land administrators near the Bunkerville, Nev., ranch of Cliven Bundy, and he was an associate of Finicum, ..... The Tribune wrote about Keebler in December 2011, when he worked as an outfitter guiding coyote sport hunters.

Undercover FBI employees became members of Keebler's "Patriots Defense Force," charging documents say, and trained for an "anti-government action" where, Keebler told members, they would be "going on the offensive." .....

More crazy ass white dude terrorism!
Bundy Bro Arrested For Trying To Blow Up A Building! But Don’t Worry, He’s A ‘Patriot’
By Robyn Pennacchia - June 24, 2016

In the latest example of what the PC Right simply refuses to call “Crazy Ass White Dude Terrorism,” William Keebler, a friend of deceased Bundy henchman LaVoy Finicum and the leader of a not-so-well-regulated militia in Utah, has been arrested .....

According to the complaint, “Keebler made it clear he didn’t plan on blowing people up for now, but he wanted his group to be prepared to escalate things, and take people out if necessary.” You know, because public land use is definitely an issue worth killing some people over. He is just so darned patriotic! It’s so weird that they are even arresting him, because obviously he is doing this for America.

Anyway, one of the FBI agents, conveniently, was put in charge of making the two bombs — one to blow up the building, and another to use against law enforcement agents should they try to stop them. Which I am sure means that there will be lots of news on the TV today about how men like Keebler are making it all unsafe by making it difficult for officers to do their jobs, and how rural white men really need to show more respect for the police.

Of course, when Keebler attempted to blow the building up this Saturday evening, nothing happened. He just kept pressing the detonator device trying to get it to go off, and eventually gave up and went back to Utah. He was then arrested on Wednesday, and faces five to 20 years if convicted. But hey! He still did kind of make a point, and I bet you right now that the Bureau of Land Management is totally thinking “You know what? This guy has a point, and it was very well articulated, so let’s just give all this public land to these cattle ranchers free of charge!”

4. Utah Militia Leader Accused Of Trying To Detonate Bomb At BLM Facility; FBI Claims Ties To LaVoy Fin

Some new info in this report, FBI infiltration dates to at least Oct. 2015:

Utah Militia Leader Accused Of Trying To Detonate Bomb At BLM Facility; FBI Claims Ties To LaVoy Finicum
By Gephardt Daily Staff - June 24, 2016

... In Wednesday’s court filings, federal prosecutors claimed Finicum and Keebler had conducted surveillance of the Mount Trumbull, Arizona BLM facility in October 2015, along with an undercover FBI employee, who accompanied Keebler while posing as a militia member.

The idea that Finicum planned to take part in a bombing stands in stark contrast to his family and friends’ contention that the flamboyant Arizona rancher acted as a peacemaker and educator during the Oregon takeover. ...........

The probable cause statement paints a striking portrait of the FBI’s efforts to infiltrate militia groups involved in the 2014 Bunkerville standoff. That scrutiny effort seemingly increased after the Oregon occupation.

“For several months, undercover employees (UCEs) of the FBI have been members of the PDF. ............ Keebler could face 20 years in federal prison ....
