That can be interpreted many ways. In fact, it's probably not prevalent to look at the issue from an originalist standpoint. I've studied this extensively. It's more of a cultural perk rather than a legal one nowadays.

Anyway, OP probably doesn't know this stuff. He (or she) isn't even American, and has asked a lot of naive (and idealism-based) questions with said idealism as a backdrop for a point of view.

First things first, look at how a terror organization is organized and defined, then apply it to a security or militia force.

A militia is broadly understood to be an armed civil group that functions as an ad hoc military force with a loose modicum of organization and hierarchy.

They are technicaly. The FBI issued orders to keep watch on "Home grown terrorist groups." as far back as 96.
But well it was ignored and the news rarely reports about it.
White guys killing White guys dosnt sell.
And well Christians are the good guys.
Teah most are contry clubs. But you get nut casses.
look at the recent Wallmart shooting. Or wen the KKK wanted to invade that Island.

This thread needs the cleansing fire of a nuclear weapon

Sully must be refering to Operation Red Dog

i just looked up operation red dog found this but didn't watch it.

like i said they are getting watched but the law enforcement funding regarding them was cut.

Thing is there are more home grown terrorist attacks inthe US than. Islanc Fundie attacks.
The nutters firebombing abortion clynics. Yeah those are terrorists.

The thread rules really discourage that sort of broad sweeping generalization

Note about the abortion bombings, they're considered terrorist attacks already by the united states. The people who commit them are tried and sentenced in accordance to the law regarding terrorist plots from citizens of the united states. This whole anti-US/anti-christian thing you guys got going on is pretty much separate of what happens in reality. There's no pity party for christian criminals in the US, they get tried just like any other criminal would who did the acts and said the things that people of, ahem, Islamic faith who was a citizen of this country would get.



Okay, there's a lot wrong with that idea. Firstly, that this group of people labeled as Terrorists by the government would give control of Dominica to the United States, and not use it as a base of operations for anti-american activities ((Espeically with Obama in the White House and multiple members of congress and the senate being of mixed descent. Last time I checked they didn't even like people of Irish or Italian descent. I wouldn't expect them to do anything for America that didn't involve an ethnic cleansing.

Two, there's nothing to be gained except enemies in taking over a nation like Dominica. In 1981 especially, we'd be lucky if Castro didn't use this as a perfect way to get other Caribbean and Central American countries on his side about the US being power hungry, or turned this into a repeat of the Cuban Missile Crisis from the 1960's.

Third, you just don't approve of an fucking ethnic cleansing. And are you telling me the island with a majority black population wouldn't be massacred when a group of Mercenaries whose primary motivation is a hatred of non-whites, especially those of African descent, would be put in power with a puppet white supremacist head of state? And color me skeptical, but I don't think a group composed of white nationalists would allow a black man, Former Prime Minister Patrick John, to keep his job for long once he helped them get their foothold on the island. Something about that just stretches my suspension of disbelief.
