Southern Poverty Law Center Chronicles ‘Explosive’ Rise in Radical Anti-Government ‘Patriot Movement’

Mar. 6, 2013 11:30am Madeleine Morgenstern

The number of radical anti-government “Patriot” and militia groups in the U.S. soared to an all-time high last year, according to a new report from the Southern Poverty Law Center.

The “Patriot movement,” according to the organization, “believes that the federal government is conspiring to take Americans’ guns and destroy their liberties as it paves the way for a global ‘one-world government.’”

The Southern Poverty Law Center — a left-leaning nonprofit that monitors groups it deems hateful and extremist, including the Ku Klux Klan, New Black Panther Party and Aryan Nation — tracked 1,360 such groups in 2012, up from 1,274 in 2011 and a meteoric surge from 149 in 2008.

That rise, according to the center, is due to the election of Barack Obama as the nation’s first black president and anger over the economic downturn, and is likely to continue with the White House-led push for more gun control.

“We are seeing a real and rising threat of domestic terrorism as the number of far-right anti-government groups continues to grow at an astounding pace,” Mark Potok, a senior fellow at the center and the author of the report, said in a statement. “It is critically important that the country take this threat seriously. The potential for deadly violence is real, and clearly rising.”

In a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano sent Tuesday, the center asked for a government task force to assess the situation, likening it to the period before the 1995 Oklahoma City domestic terror bombing.

“As in the period before the Oklahoma City bombing, we now also are seeing ominous threats from those who believe that the government is poised to take their guns,” the letter stated. “Because of the looming dangers, we urge you to establish an interagency task force to assess the adequacy of resources devoted to responding to the growing threat of non-Islamic domestic terrorism.”

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, the reaction to Obama’s push for new gun control has been similar to the 1994 assault weapons ban under President Bill Clinton, but has not triggered nearly the same number of groups, which peaked at 858 in 1996.

The center also attributed the movement’s rise to a backlash against immigration and the predicted loss of the “white majority.”

“For many, the election of America’s first black president symbolizes the country’s changing demographics, with the loss of its white majority predicted by 2043. … Now that comprehensive immigration reform is poised to legitimize and potentially accelerate the country’s demographic change, the backlash to that change may accelerate as well,” the report stated.

Bill Hahn, a spokesman for the John Birch Society, which is listed as one of the anti-government groups, dismissed the Southern Poverty Law Center as merely trying to discredit conservative groups and raise money while doing so. The John Birch Society is an anti-communist and limited government organization that describes itself as “dedicated to restoring and preserving freedom under the United States Constitution.”

The Southern Poverty Law Center “is very adept at creating the specter that armed groups will overthrow the government or that the continuously dying supremacy movement is lurking behind every rock,” Hahn said in a statement to USA Today. “The SPLC will continue to utilize fear to fill their bank accounts.”

You can view a list of the groups — including several Tea Party organizations — here.

In CONTROL, Glenn Beck presents a passionate, fact-based case for guns that reveals why gun control isn’t really about controlling guns at all; it’s about controlling us. Find out more HERE.

  “… period before the Oklahoma City bombing… .”
  
  The period before the bombing was Ruby Ridge and Waco, both true demonstrations of government abuse. Both were military type operations conducted domestically. Both had high casualty rates. Both were unnecessary. The government spawns violence.

  Pat Robertson also said Southern is worth $225 million, so much so poverty in Southern Poverty

When you stand next to someone on the firing line in Afghanistan or Iraq, sit next to the helmsman on a submarine or in the cockpit of a Harrier with a marine, then you can slander a group of people you know nothing about the character of.

  People should keep a close eye on what is going on with the SPLC. This is the same group that wrote the MIAC report in 2009 that was released to law enforcement agencies and later rescinded, which basically claimed that all conservatives and libertarians are domestic terrorists. They have an agenda!

We’re not “anti-government”, we’re anti-Marxism, anti-Radical Islamic, anti-slavery, anti-ignorance, anti-”overreaching” government, anti-Federal Reserve nonsense, and we also believe in “freedom of choice” for the innocent unborn who don’t have a voice.

You want to end poverty? End ignorance, apathy, complacency, and laziness……all tenets of overreaching nanny-statism.

  Indeed, the SPLC is nothing more than a group being used by the administration to lump real radicals and the opposition of Obama and the Progressives for the purpose of disarming, imprisonment, full scale suppression/oppression by force and for assassination via the drones.
  
  If the economy collapses as predicted, we will see the unions and leftists and anarchists cut loose for all they can, for Obama wants a communist nation, and Soros will support him all the way.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is simply a group of hateful, left wing racists. They feel they have a platform in this administration, so they are trying to leverage that platform to push their agenda. Like the KKK, they rely on ignorance and like-minded hatred to further their sad little cause.

Do they care about Blacks afraid to walk their own streets without fear of being gunned down? Nah, no points to be gained there. Phony, baloney, plastic banana, good time R&R fakes.

No patriots are not antigovernment. In fact, the name, patriot, implies support for a government. What patriots are is anti an illegal and corrupt government that fails to abide by our laws for that government, the Constitution.

What these pinheads forget is that our patriots set down a very restrictive set of rules allowing the government to perform some very specific taks for all of us. That set of rules is our contract with each and contains the sum total of all power we are each willing to share with each other. Those rules are simple, easy to understand, with no implied parts, no inherent parts, no compelling government interest parts. Those rule are “The Constituion FOR the United States”. They are not the Constitution OF the United States so quit calling it that. Don’t believe me. Read the preamble again and this time pay attention.

Those that will not submit must be criminalized for the Feds to justify taking those arms from it’s rebelious confederates that have the gall to stand up for the Constitution as written. They must demonize, deligitimize the supporters of the 2nd in order to eliminate them (litterally speaking). What is coming is not good…our Fort Sumter moment is close at hand and the Feds are trying there level best to make that first shot seem like we are the traitors to the nation…it’s upside down world alright, something which GB talked about in great detail years ago on FNC….funny how just about everything GB predicted has now come to pass….

So it has come to the point where trying to save the country from an overreaching government is domestic terrorism…. The Southern Poverty Law Center is a domestic terrorism organization!

  I’d guess your total numbers to be in the area of 100,000 or so, a number easily squashed if you actually grew a pair and tried to do something other that sit in your trailers and type away on the Blaze. I’m not worried.

  SIMPLEDOUCHE, there are millions….MILLIONS of freedom & liberty, constitution abiding veterans standing the f#k by to do whatever it takes to stop tyrants trying to infringe on our rights.
  
  It only took 3% to whip Cowallace’s ass & as someone posted above, if this were the 1770′s Barry would be Conwallace.

The Left has ramped-up the rhetoric for their own dark purposes. Good Americans are deeply concerned about government restrictions on our human rights. Why wouldn’t they be concerned? This nation has never before faced greater danger and it is coming from the Progressives. Pleaee 2014 and 2016 get here soon!

To paraphrase from the movie a Few Good Men. If gun owners are law abiding citizens …. then why would we need to be worry or be afraid of them.

  JCROOK, You might want to read what you wrote, and give this another try. Makes less sense than you usually do.

  JCROOK…gauging from this latest post of yours…the least of your worries is someone with a gun. Perhaps your physician can adjust the dosage of your medication it’s clearly too strong.

  We don’t obey unconstitutional laws. I am not “Law abiding”, for I am not a sheep. I am free man and will live as I choose, and I will fight back if needed. Believe me, there are more of us than there are of you.

The SPLC also inspires people to try to shoot Christian’s. That was the motivation of the FotF shooter who wanted to murder Christians. The SPLC is a hate group.

  @THEIGGIES. I subscribe to no religious belief, yet I find your statement truly ignorant. I don’t care what anybody believes in, if they have my back. I think you would be the first one to catch a cap, when the chips are down.

  Shalom,
  Glad to know you think I need to be shot. As I am a Rabbi, this is not a major concern (there are only about 1,5 billion muslims who agree with you, and I am still here). When making assertions that people should be killed, such as my assertion that Mr. Obama needs to be executed for his treason in accordance with the law, it is difficult to take anyone seriously when they hide behind a pseudonym; it gives one the impression that the speaker does not have the courage to openly state their beliefs, which shows that the speaker knows full well that those beliefs are, in fact, untrue.
  There is no reason to hide when speaking the truth.

The Southern Poverty Law Center pointing out ‘hate groups’ would be like Rosie calling Taylor Swift Fat.
They are the biggest hate group in America!
A bunch of Commie/Marxist calling everyone racist homophobes.

  Bet their use of the word ” poverty ” is code for anti-capitalism ! The Left radicals have re-defined so many words in our traditional vocabulary…. doing just that is code for LYING !
