What makes a 'terrorist'? Compare the 'Miami 7' with some of these.

Why were 7 young men charged with threats and conspiring “to levy war against the government of the United States, and to oppose by force the authority thereof,” for discussing they're desire to join in with al-Qaida? Yet no one considers threats against immigrants worthy of charges.

Border Guardians founder Laine Lawless sent an email to the Ohio unit of the National Socialist Movement (largest neo-Nazi organization in US) titled, "How to GET RID OF THEM", detailing 11 ways to terrorize immigrants. Included was Lawless' suggestion to "steal the money from any illegal walking into a bank or check cashing place." "Make every illegal alien feel the heat of being a person without status.." "Use your imagination."

On March 27, New Jersey based neo-Nazi radio host Hal Turner called for the mass murder of Hispanics and the assassination of U.S. Senators who support guest worker programs. "All of you who think there's a peaceful solution to these invaders are wrong. We're going to have to start killing these people. I advocate using extreme violence against illegal aliens. Clean your guns. Have plenty of ammunition. Find out where the largest gathering of illegal aliens will be near you. Go to the area well in advance, scope out several places to position yourself and then do what has to be done."
