From Mark Potok:

The radical right caught fire last year, as broad-based populist anger at political, demographic and economic changes in America ignited an explosion of new extremist groups and activism across the nation.

Hate groups stayed at record levels — almost 1,000 — despite the total collapse of the second largest neo-Nazi group in America. Furious anti-immigrant vigilante groups soared by nearly 80%, adding some 136 new groups during 2009. And, most remarkably of all, so-called “Patriot” groups — militias and other organizations that see the federal government as part of a plot to impose “one-world government” on liberty-loving Americans — came roaring back after years out of the limelight.

Meet one of those Right Wing Hate Groups listed by SPLC:

 

It appears that Radical Right Wing Nation of Islam groups are everywhere, and are all, as I said RADICAL RIGHT WING.  They have 2 in Massachusetts alone.  Also Right Wing in Boston Mass:  New Black Panther Party.

UPDATE: Calling on an Army of David’s. Turns out this entire Hate Map thing is horseshit, and I need some help. Note that Maine lists 2 groups, and you go there and there is only 1 pin there, so who knows what the second one is. Look at Vermont, one hate group, no pins. Anyone care to help me scour the record to see what groups are actually hate, and which are just thrown in there to pad the numbers?

AND MORE: New Hampshire, 5 listed, only 2 pins, IHM Media, and Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, both listed as Richmond, NH. Maybe because “IHM Media” is short for “Immaculate Heart of Mary”….so, five groups, only 2 identified, and they are the same people. Good job Mark Potok, your map works like a champ!

ARE YOU SHITTING ME? There are 120 “Black Separatist” groups listed on their hate map, all of which are listed under the title “Rage on the Right” in the piece they wrote about it.

BWAHAHAHA: How about a Voz de Aztlan? Does that group strike you as right wing?

Before Potok can even get in here and say “But those are hate groups and racists, we never said they were all right wing….” Go ahead, and read the quote from you I have above, you were CLEARLY INDICATING that the groups were right wing, you ever titled the whole thing “Rage on the Right.”

Stars and Stripes outlines some plans, from a Noah’s Ark, to using trained bears:

1. Bears have scent detection that is far superior to bloodhounds! Trained bears with GPS and day/night cameras around their necks might be able to hunt down the scent of UBL, even in and through any caves and tunnels!!! bears to take off parachutes after landing, or use parachutes that self-destruct after landing.

Agreed, I have seen those sonsabitches steal a ton of pic-a-nic baskets, so I know they could pull this one off.

4. Would there be time to construct a Noah’s Ark Biosphere in North America if there is an emerging Global War starting in the Middle East? I don’t know … I only know that I have worked on such a project for many years now. If a Global War emerges and much life and civilization is damaged or destroyed due to the use of massive weapons then there may be a need to construct a survival Ark … of Biblical proportions .. a Dome City .. a New Jerusalem Ark .. to preserve a remnant of earth-kind and make it possible for the earth to be resettled some 200 or 300 years in the future. The problem is it takes a lot of resources to build a modern day Noah’s Ark … and lots of planning and development. Yet it seems reasonable to assume this planning should be done if there is only a ten percent chance of Global War even within the next 20 years let alone the next 20 months.

The Bible lays out the basic specifications for the New Jerusalem Biosphere … not very many people realize how this is fully realized. The concept of a city 1300 miles on a side is ludicrous yet if the 12,000 furlong measure is transformed into an overall measure of length, width and height in combination then this parameter can be consistent with the 4500 by 4500 cubit specification in Ezekiel . Here lies the key .. along with the 12 tower design .. the twelve towers being the twelve foundations. And so if goes … and these specs lay the foundation for a modern day Noah’s Ark.

Is there time to do the detailed design and development work .. and lay out the materials and foundation and build the structure and infrastructure … I don’t know … But if there is going to be a Global War then I believe some sort of Noah’s Ark would have to be build to ride out a period of intense atmospheric damage. Then after the period of “Hibernation” people and materials would emerge to repopulate the Earth.

And that’s all I have to say about that…

Old Tanker points out a possible problem with our ninja bear idea:

Ever wonder how we won Desert Storm so easily? Was it because we have the best military in the world, an over-whelming number of coalition troops, and air power dominance that made fighting against it a bad idea? Nope, it was brain waves people!

From IVAW-ally blog Iraq Cry:

This is an extremely timely and important essay It overviews a secret Pentagon psychotronics technology known as Silent Sound Spread Spectrum (SSSS) that has been fully operational since the early 1990s. I first found out about the use of this technology from Al Bielek in a 1992 video he made with Vladimir Terziski. This technology was used against battle-hardened Iraqi troops fortified in deep underground bunkers in Kuwait and Iraq in the first Gulf War in January of 1991.

The physical, emotional, and psychological effects of this technology were so severe that hundreds of thousands of Iraqi troops surrendered en masse without firing even a single shot against US led coalition forces.

The numbers reported in the news were staggering: 75,000 and then another 125,000 (or more) Iraqi troops would come out of their deep desert bunkers waving white flags and falling to their knees before approaching US troops and literally kiss their captor’s boots or hands if given the opportunity.

Why would eight year veterans of Middle Eastern warfare (with Iran 1980-1988) behave this way? Simple. They were subjected to a technology that was so extreme and incomprehensible that they were suddenly reduced to the level of compliant children and felt grateful to still be alive in the wake of their mind-wrenching experience.

But, lest you think this is only being used against Iraqis, you sheeple need to wake uP!

I’m only guessing, but if there are 200 million “regular” televisions in America to be converted into HD, then that $40 in government subsidy per TV × 200,000,000 = $8 billion Why is the government so anxious to spend 8 billion dollars on her citizens to improve the clarity of a TV picture? Or is the recently touted “additional bandwidth” cover story that supposedly is to be gained with the HD technology the only and genuine reason for spending so much taxpayer dollars on HD conversion?

Buy stock in aluminum foil, cause that shit is priced to move!

Dude, I am literally surrounded by them. Somewhat inexplicably I was invited to attend the US Army’s TRADOC (Training and Doctrine Command) Senior Leaders Conference in Williamsburg Virginia. It’s like seeing a whole different world. Nicest damn resort I ever saw, and my clubs are 1000 miles away.

Anyway, just wanted to let y’all know I was out of contact, and if you guys could send me standard enlisted/NCO emails every now and again so I can retain my map reading skills etc, I would appreciate it.

Actually, just send some officer jokes so I can share them with the Generals (I have seen at least 5).

Actually, it is just this fat hippie chick losing her ever-loving mind.

I’m guessing there isn’t enough booze in the State of California to bribe some dude to jump on this grenade.

H/t BSS.

God I hate dirty hippie chicks.

BTW- Is it just me, or does she look like she should be bursting through walls yelling “Oh yeah!”

This audio is simply surreal. Eric “The Empire State Love Muscle” Massa fighting with a naked Rahm Emmanuel, and claiming that the last thing he wants to see is his naked colleagues. Really? Who would you like to see naked Eric? Be honest, is it the naked dishonesty of your friends at VoteVets that gets you all hot and talking like a sailor?

Between Pacific coming up, and now this, I am all about the HBO. I would have used a Rome analogy instead of Sopranos, but trust me, this will be awesome.

…but for you single guys, I provide this as a public service announcement from the lookers at Code Pink:

When you join together on a bridge in your community, you are connected to the women of Iraq, Sudan, Nigeria, Bosnia Kosovo, and beyond.

I’m pretty sure that “join together on a bridge” is slang for a threesome.
