This is what they are talking about:
The rhetoric and threat of domestic terrorist plots mirror the mood observed in the six months before the Oklahoma City bombing, a domestic terror attack in 1995 by anti-government militia sympathizer Timothy McVeigh that killed 168 people, center President J. Richard Cohen says in a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. "In the last four years we have seen a tremendous increase in the number of conspiracy-minded, anti-government groups as well as in the number of domestic terrorist plots," Cohen writes. "We now also are seeing ominous threats from those who believe that the government is poised to take their guns."

Isn't the so called threat, "If you come for my guns, I'll resist."? So wouldn't it be prudent for the government to abide by the Constitution? Then there's no issue or reason for the perceived threat by "conspiracists". Isn't that correct?

VERY misleading title. Crackdown on militias is more like it. Not a conspiracy theorists, "conspiracy minded militias/patriot groups.". Look at the ones they named.
The San Francisco Bay area hosts seven of what the SPLC termed “conspiracy-minded antigovernment Patriot groups,” including six chapters of the Nation of Islam and one chapter of the Christian Guardians, Salt Lake City, Utah had two such groups, the SPLC claimed: the Creativity Alliance and Crusaders of Yahweh,
is calling for a federal crackdown on “conspiracy-minded antigovernment Patriot groups.”edit on 5-3-2013 by thesmokingman because: (no reason given)

Yeah ,Yeah ,Yeah,
Right.
I don't believe your Title is accurate.
Because if that was the case, after looking at themselves in the mirror tomorrow morning,
Our Fellow Citizens at The Department of Justice would have some serious "Soul Searching"
to attend to.
Hell I'll wager that more than a few are members or at least frequently visit here.
Why not? This is an interesting website on the clean web.
We are all on the up and up here. Mods would boot you otherwise.
I mean really, This isn't The Deep Web for goodness sakes.
I respect your paranoia, but I think you are off base. Read your own References for confirmation.

The SPLC today issued a call for Eric Holder to begin a crackdown on conspiracy theorists and to mobilize all available federal resources to "devote to this threat."
"As in the period before the Oklahoma City bombing, we now are seeing ominous threats from those who believe that the government is poised to take their guns,” SPLC President Richard Cohen was quoted in the press release. Cohen is a member of the Department of Homeland Security’s Countering Violent Extremism Working Group.
