8. You forgot Posse Comitatus and John Birch
Edited on Mon Jul-30-07 10:01 AM by sybylla
I see some of the connections you are trying to draw, in a general way, but I wonder if this isn't more likely a symptom of the sense of selfishness and the attendant envy and greed some in our society hold against others than a mass conspiracy for the achievement of some terrible goal. Can their appearing to work together be only accidental simply because they have similar goals?

If you get down to the core motivations for all these groups, doesn't selfishness seem to be the base propellant for the poison?
