One particular rant that has gained traction on white supremacist websites was posted on Dec. 28 by a blogger named Bob Owens and is entitled “What you’ll see in the rebellion.” In the piece, Owens speculates about what would happen if the “gun grabbers … confiscatory fantasy plays out.” It has already received more than 160 comments on Owens’ website, including this one: “Everyone talks of dying for their cause, because it’s glamorous. Killing for our cause is what it will take.’’
In Owens’ vision, the enactment of legislation being proposed in Congress would result in civil war and a targeted campaign of assassination that forces the president to stay in “his gilded cage except in carefully controlled circumstances.’’
“Even then he will be forced to move like a criminal. He will never be seen outdoors in public again. Not in this country.’’

Sobering. Especially when you consider that there are now more than 1,100 identified racist hate groups operating in this country stock-piling arms, preaching hate and itching for war against the federal government. The "United States" is positively a-swarm and seething with fascist organizations of every reactionary color and stripe: neo-Confederates and nazis, Klansmen, Aryan Nation spin-offs, white nationalists, skinheads, white power motorcycle clubs, far-right political organizations, home-grown militias, criminal gangs and other odd, one-off groupings of low-information losers, gun-fondling maniacs and fundamentalist, misogynistic misfits—with more springing into existence every day . . .
