Do you hate paying taxes? Are you fighting foreclosure? Do you feel like no one should be allowed to commit violence against you and don't always blindly follow the commands of the authorities? Do you film encounters with police or believe gold makes better currency than Federal Reserve Notes? Well you might be part of a domestic terrorism movement and not even know it.
On Friday, the Los Angeles Times posted an article attempting to define a domestic terrorist movement consisting of as many as 300,000 Americans. Some are even labeled as non-violent "paper terrorists".
Is there a more Orwellian term than "non-violent terrorist"? If you can think of one please share it in the comments below.
They refer to this so-called terror group as "sovereigns, zealots who refuse to recognize government authority in virtually any form."
When attempting to further define and identify individuals in this movement, some very broad and dangerous stereotypes appear.
"Sovereigns believe U.S. currency has no value but recognize precious metals as valid currency," wrote the LA Times, much like the US Constitution does.
"A central tenet of the sovereigns movement is that its adherents believe they owe no income taxes," also much like the Constitution forbids.
What's more, federal and state law enforcement are being trained that anyone who disobeys their commands falls into this terrorist movement and may pose a violent threat to them.
