Investigating Terrorism and Criminal Extremism Terms and Concepts

www.scribd.com...

introduction
3 In order for criminal justice professionals to effectively combat terrorism/extremism, it is imperative to obtain as much information as possible. Extremist groups often develop languages of their own. Some have created terms that are unique in the English language, while others have given new or expanded meaning to relatively common words and phrases. In addition, certain symbols, events, organizations, and individuals have particular signicance for members of some extremist organizations, none of which may be familiar to an investigator or prosecutor who has not previously been involved with such cases.

this is about most of us. seems like the feds are going mainstream and extending concepts we already know about like the miac report.
we all know these things are happening, but seeing it in official documents just makes it harder to ignore.

i doubt anyone considers ats a threat. out of the thousands of posts i have read i have only encountered two or three people who i think would not be all talk and no action in any sort of event. 90% of the people here are delusional, they like to watch weird japanese cartoons and collect pokemon cards and pretend they are jedis or whatever. trust me a couple hundred computer nerds trying to use martial arts they learned from watching professional wrestling isn't much of a threat to anybody, especially the us government. most of the people here are about as gentle as a summer breeze, and until you see legislation outlawing ponytails, sweat pants, and animated pornography i would say most of the people who frequent this site are safe.

true enough, no point there to argue, although my purpose in posting this is just to point out that my government is more interested in classifying americans as extremists for future purposes. in the case of most laws and classifications, they are only used against citizens if and when the government chooses.
on a personal basis, this type of thing doesn't add to my paranoia, but if and when the time comes, a document like this can be used.

precIouS metAl deAlerS

ealers in gold and silver who form
perhaps the most signicant source of nancial support for the
“patriot” movement. Gold and silver dealers such as Viking
International, Discount Gold and Silver Trading Company, and others sponsor shortwave radio programs whose hosts urge people to put all their money into gold and silver so they can survive the “coming collapse.” These cynical dealers will accept Federal Reserve Notes in exchange for precious metals.

like this, i find it insane that now an american company can be classified as terrorists due to where they choose to advertise.

i was actually quite surprised that midas wasn't mentioned. owner of gcn live, sponcer of alex jones.
then it clicked, i flick on am radio at times just to see what agenda is being promoted and remembered i've heard their adds on limbaugh.

midas resources-gcn live.

or, does this add to the conspiracy of alex jones being a gov. agent?

of course they wouldn't dare list a corrupted, heavily influential group like the n.r.a.

sure, insult all of us and then play like your part of the team.

yeah it seemed like a pretty good strategy. 90% was a pretty wild number to throw out there, i would say realistically more like 50%
