while the site certainly has the look and feel of a freeper site (for some reason they all use the same bad html design) The site actually has some good information resources and quotes.
It's more libertarian than radical right wing, really. And there is no militia aspect, for the most part. In fact, if you read the conclusion the author specifically states that violence (militia) is not the response.
From the article:
Again, we must stress that we are not asking you to pick up guns; in fact, we implore you not to, no matter how angry the news of this deception has made you. Turn your anger into a steely resolve, a fierce determination not to give up until the battle has been won.
We are not asking you for any money; that's their game, the "almighty dollar". It is the substitution of wealth and possessions for integrity and honor that helped get us into this true state of emergency in which we find ourselves now. We are not asking you for more time than you can give, although we do ask you to give what time you can to get this information out.
What we ask from you is your commitment to stand with those around you to help us restore this nation to her rightful place in history, both that written and that yet to be told. Abraham Lincoln once said, "We the People are the rightful masters of both Congress and the Courts, not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution".
We must stand together now in this, our national hour of need. As the United States Supreme Court once said, "It is not the function of our government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the government from falling into error."
... taken in a different context, this quote could come right out of DU.
And note here that the author is not supportive of the current regime, and throws them along into the batch. Admittedly, this person has some flaws in their premise, and tends to place contradictory thoughts side by side.
That said, they also exhibit a deep understanding and respect of the Constitution and Bill or Rights, which I have to admire, even if I may not agree with every single thing the author has to say.
This is not a standard freeper site, IMO. The information seems to be presented largely without bias towards one party or another, but more towards revealing a flaw in the system that we all know exists.
Some interesting info here. Thanks for posting. :-)
