Read the following paragraph carefully. The writer is a master at
propaganda. Notice how he mixes all groups together and seems to imply that
all "patriot" organizations are militias and that they all are implicated in
raising funds through "a series of robberies beginning in 1992". This may at
first appear to be simply poor writing. However, I believe that it really
very well written if one takes into consideration what the author is
attempting to do. Incidently, are the members of this list also to be lumped
in with the "Vipers"?
