4. For questions like this, I think more in terms of "conservatives".

The republican party has changed with time before reaching its current low point. But conservatives have always been skeptical of America and its values (Tories in the Revolution, rebels in the Civil War, battling the civil rights movement, etc., etc.) no matter what party label they are defiling at the moment.

7. But the first talk of things like sniping any gov official that snoops around their environs is

newish. And the Ruby ridge stuff got them talking in those terms about everything including home schooling.
