Though they  will invoke the supposed danger of fringe groups, the purge will impact  everybody.<\/p>\n<p>The smear attack seamlessly blends fringe minority  groups, racist skinheads and militias with even mainstream political activists  like Sheriff Richard Mack and Gun Owners of America head Larry Pratt, people who  have never advocated violence against anyone.<\/p>\n<p>Even Congresswoman Michele Bachmann is thrown in  for good measure. The fact that the SPLC is going to such lengths as to equate a  sitting Congresswoman with mass murdering terrorists reveals the true purpose of  the smear \u2013 another advancement of the effort to silence political opposition by  demonizing peaceful political adversaries as violent extremists.<\/p>\n<p>The SPLC couldn\u2019t give a damn about preventing  domestic <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/terrorism\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" rel=\"tag nofollow\" title=\"Posts tagged with terrorism\">terrorism<\/a>, indeed, their funding and prestige will only increase if  such attacks were to take place. The SPLC is begging for an incident that can be  blamed on their political opposition which they will then exploit to silence  dissent, so don\u2019t be surprised if such an attack is dutifully provided by the  network of federal <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/government\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" rel=\"tag nofollow\" title=\"Posts tagged with Government\">government<\/a> provocateurs who are routinely caught steering  rag-tag terror groups in every major case.<\/p>\n<p>The SPLC report predictably throws in the name of  mass murderer and domestic terrorist Timothy McVeigh, strongly implying that the  groups demonized in the piece are intent on similar acts of slaughter.<\/p>\n<p>The report even floats a potential flash point for  when violence could possibly erupt \u2013 April 19th \u2013 the anniversary of both the  Waco massacre and the OKC bombing, adding that the Second Amendment March in  Washington, D.C. also takes place on this date.<\/p>\n<p>While the SPLC, the ADL and similar organizations  are happy to play the Timothy McVeigh card over and over again, they are less  enthusiastic to mention the fact that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.prisonplanet.com\/..\/articles\/february2007\/220207okcrevelations.htm\">McVeigh  planned his deadly assault on the Alfred P. Murrah building under the intimate  direction of a high-level FBI official<\/a>, according to McVeigh\u2019s  co-conspirator Terry Nichols, a claim voluminously backed up by a plethora of  evidence that has been presented in court on several occasions.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that there are loosely affiliated gangs  of semi-retarded racists dotted around rural America who occasionally make idle  threats is a pathetically flimsy foundation on which the SPLC props up its  feigned concern for the supposed threat of domestic terror in the United States,  a threat that in every instance has been fostered, prodded and provoked by the  only entity that ever benefits from acts of domestic terror \u2013 the federal  <a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tag\/government\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\"
