DETROIT, Michigan — Nine members of a radical Christian militia were charged with plotting to kill police in Michigan and wage war on the government, an indictment unsealed Monday said.Prosecutors say the Hutaree militia considered law enforcement to be "foot soldiers" of the federal government and counted among their enemies anyone who did not share their beliefs or was participating in the "new world order."The Hutaree website says it is "preparing for the end time battles to keep the testimony of Jesus Christ alive." They had allegedly been training since at least 2008 and planned to kill a law enforcement officer and then attack the funeral with home-made bombs. They would then retreat to one of several "rally points" to "wage war against the government and be prepared to defend in depth with trip-wired and command detonated anti-personnel Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), ambushes, and prepared fighting positions," the charging document said.

I'm not surprised to see such groups making headlines. The sales of firearms and ammunition went up as Obama became President, under fear of increased difficulty in obtaining guns and more gun control.

I wonder, though, how these militia groups really expect to win a war against millions of National Guardsmen. Perhaps they believe they will have God on their sides?

How did the revolutionaries expect to win a war against the British Empire back in the day? I'm sure that's how they see themselves.....

Have you not heard of the Oath Keepers? Lots of police, guardsmen, military in this group and they are large.

I read today that sedition charges are going to be laid against some of these "militia" members....I wonder now if the notion of sedition is going to be more in the public spotlight in the United States and if so, will any government prosecution served to further divide the nation?

Its a good thing these muslims were stopped before they could act out most of their terrorist plans. After all, not all muslims are terrorists but all terrorist are muslim right?

Yeah, I got that email too......hahahaahahahahahah!

Hmmm, I think I still have a few Kurt Saxon books around here...

These militia groups are made up mostly of National Guardsmen, veterans, police and the like.

In this case, it was 'one of their own' that turned them in, so it important not to paint all militia groups with the same brush.

These guys were fcuken nut jobs...nothing more.

Interesting story......
