Hutaree planned to kill cops

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

WASHINGTON — People familiar with the case against seven suspects arrested by the FBI this weekend say the case revolves around a plot to kill police officers.

Two law enforcement officials tell The Associated Press that members of the group in the Midwest had planned multiple attacks on police officers or other law enforcement personnel as a way of acting out their hatred for the government.

The officials said the raids and arrests stopped the plot before such attacks could be carried out. The officials are speaking on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the case publicly.

The plot allegedly was hatched by members of a Christian militia group called Hutaree. The charges are expected to be unsealed when some of the suspects appear in court later Monday.

Oh yes, because attacking 'local' cops is a way to be mad at/get the attention of the Federal Government....

Idiocy at its best right there.

FBI was active in our area - Hammond, IN - they picked up a guy over the weekend. On the news they said they also picked up a guy in Illinois related to this militant group.

Would you have preferred that they plotted to attack Federal employees?

[Obama 2012 1,714]

Would you have preferred that they plotted to attack Federal employees?

Short answer: Yes.

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

Short answer: Yes.

And you still don't like being called a terrorist?

[Obama 2012 1,714]

And you still don't like being called a terrorist?

""Would you have preferred that they plotted to attack Federal employees?""

I answered simply because it's erroneous to attack local cops for the problems of our Federal Government. I'm just saying if you want to send a message, you're targetting the wrong people who are innocent in the grand scheme of things.

Q: Would you have preferred that they plotted to attack Federal employees?

A: Yes.

The obvious conclusion from reading that is that one supports attacks on Federal employees.

However, your clarification is accepted, as weaselly as it may sound.

That was the first thing that came to my mind.

Fuquing savages!

So Federal employees aren't 'innocent in the grand scheme of things'???

Most Government officials aren't now days in the grand scheme of things. There's very few who actually govern the way their districts want them to govern and very few who don't take the 'perks' that lobbyists throw their way.

Are you the next Maximilien Robespierre?

Are you the next Maximilien Robespierre?

Paul's conversion into a homegrown terrorist will happen when he'####### with personal tragedy, probably around middle age....and when he's got nothing left to lose, will target the Feds with his own brand of violence. Right now, he's in a happy time in his life so he's got too much to lose if he acted out on his fantasies.

WASHINGTON People familiar with the case against seven suspects arrested by the FBI this weekend say the case revolves around a plot to kill police officers.

They should have joined a more acceptable group that targets cops and I don't just mean some rap groups.

"Reporting from Riverside Describing it as "urban terrorism," California Atty. Gen. Jerry Brown joined with Riverside County officials Thursday in asking the public to help find those who tried at least three times to kill officers assigned to a Hemet-based gang task force.

"It is incredible and even unprecedented for police officers here to be subject to terrorist attack," Brown said at a Riverside news conference. "We have seen it south of the border, but not here yet."

The attacks have involved booby traps aimed at either the headquarters of the Hemet-San Jacinto Gang Task Force or officers assigned to the unit, officials said.

Last December a utility line was redirected to flood the offices with gas so any spark would cause an explosion. In February, a modified handgun was hidden by the gate to the office and rigged to fire. When a gang officer opened the gate, the weapon went off, narrowly missing him. And two weeks ago, police said, a "dangerous" device was found near the unmarked car of a task force member.

Officials have put up a $200,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible. The FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is assisting in the investigation.

"Unfortunately, somebody out there is trying to kill our police officers," said Hemet Police Chief Richard Dana. "The only reason they haven't killed an officer yet is because [officers] have been observant enough to see the devices, but we can't expect their luck to hold up."

He said the department is toughening security at its offices, including erecting fences and barricades. Dana said his officers had spotted people watching his headquarters.

So far there are no suspects, but on Wednesday authorities said they led raids on the Vagos outlaw motorcycle gang, which has a large presence in Hemet. Thirty people were arrested on charges that included possession of drugs and weapons."
