Very disturbing…
According to the state of Pennsylvania, it seems that a lot of people are...if they:
*Oppose gun control;
*Believe that juries have the power not to convict people who break unjust laws;
*Believe that the federal government has no legal authority to interfere with taxes or require licenses.
Uh-oh… would James Madison be a “terrorist”?
Wow.
I highly recommend everyone go through the entire course.
By doing so I learned that anarchists are a variant of terrorist who:
“believe every organization or government will eventually be corrupted by power”
“focus on specific issues that represent corruption of power”
I learned that American Indians are terrorist if they:
“push for a return of ‘stolen’ lands
and self-determination”
Single issue terrorists include:
â?¢ Environmentalists
â?¢ Animal Rights
â?¢ Pro-Life
â?¢ Anti-Nuclear/Anti-War
â?¢ Gay Rights
â?¢ Anti-Geneticists (opposed to genetically altered crops)
And the citizen who wishes to join in the fight against terrorism should always keep in mind:
“Some indications of possible trouble may include:
â?¢ Controversial issues being debated.”
There’s no mention that I could find that one might hold the above beliefs and *not* be a terrorist. The closest was that law enforcement believes the above have both mainstream and fringe elements… with no suggestion that mainstream elements aren’t terrorists.
This is very bad stuff.

Paging liberal-libertarian alliance…
It is a stupid site.
But, it does admit:
“What makes an individual a terrorist is the choice to pursue these beliefs by committing crimes.”
Seems Alabama is on the same track: http://web.archive.org/web/20060421160851/www.homelandsecurity.alabama.gov/tap/anti-gov_grps.htm
