Why isn't the FBI infiltrating teabaggers to catch the violent ones like they do with Muslims?

[NNN0LHI]

That way maybe we can stop these killers before they act.

Is there some kind of rule about not using those same tactics on on wealthy white anti-government type folks or something?

I bet if the FBI got down to business they could round up a whole boatload of them in no time at all.

FBI is dropping the ball here. I would replace the Bush holdover that the administration kept on as the head of the FBI first thing Monday morning with someone else.

1. "rule about not using those same tactics" ... yes ...

it's called "Don't bad-mouth the Republican base"

2. Muslims, hell ... they were investigating the Quakers!

and any groups who spoke out against the occupation of Iraq.

3. Because of what happened when they listed wing nut extremists as terrorists

and warned of right wing violence. The FBI had to back pedal after the R's started crying unfair.

4. They have a blanket of immunity.

Afforded them by virtue of their affiliation with the GOP. For now they are untouchable.

5. This current shooter does not appear to be a member

6. Loughner called for a return to the gold standard, a common demand of Tea Party activists

How many non-teabagger types have you heard demanding for the return of the gold standard?

Lot of them?

9. Spot on Don

spot on. I'm in tears reading about this bullshit that is happening right now in our country. We knew it was going to come to this as sure as up is not down.

10. Are you seriously claiming that the FBI doesn't investigate and infiltrate right-wing terror groups?

You can't be serious.
