Vanderboegh is unapologetic about his advocacy for armed resistance against what he views as a repressive government. He describes himself as a member of the Three Percent movement. It's a reference to those who fought in the American Revolution, a minority that Vanderboegh claims "never amounted to more than 3% of the colonists." On his website, Vanderboegh sums up the doctrine of the Three Percent: "We will not disarm. You cannot convince us. You cannot intimidate us. You can try to kill us, if you think you can. But remember, we'll shoot back." Fiery rhetoric about resistance and revolution isn't new for Vanderboegh, though the origins of his activism may seem a bit incongruous. "I used to be a communist," he says. Vanderboegh, who is in his late 50s, claims he joined the anti-war movement in 1967, first with Students for a Democratic Society, then the Socialist Workers Party, and eventually the Maoist Progressive Labor Party. http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2011/12/fast-and-furious-scandal-mike-vanderboegh _ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com

He’s in his late 50’s, so he would have been 10 or 11 when he joined. Sounds like a big liar to me. _ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
