Jack Booted Thug.  Usually refers to ATF or FBI HRT people or any fed dressed up in "tactical" gear trampling on people's rights.  Especially ATF.  Think Waco.  Think Elian Gonzalez. Think Ruby Ridge. Etc.

The NRA sent out an ad with a picture of a JBT on it as a fund raising promotion.  This was around the same time Liddy said to shoot for the head if Feds are coming through the door because of body armor. Well, both were getting a lot of media play and George Sr. withdrew is lifetime membership during the whole brouhaha.  Sr. was never a friend of the gun owner anyhow.

BTW-  The Donald Scott case is just amazing.  He was attacked purely because different agencies wanted to do an asset seizure of his property and money.  Read all about it here: [url]www.fear.org/scott.html[/url]  Click on the links on the bottom.  Simply amazing.

Who protects us from the protectors?

"Coined by the NRA's La Pierre"

Uh, don't think that's totally accurate.  The term was first used by a democrat.  In a hearing I think.  Will remember his name in a day or two...  LaPierre did use the term in ads and fundraisers.  Believe there was also a full page ad that ran in USA Today around '92 to '94 with pictures of 'em in pajama's toting automatic HK's.  Dingle?  Prompted by Ruby Ridge/Waco.

Oh, I didn't know that Fidel was his natural father.

No, I don't believe Fidel is his natural father either...Do a little research on the family he was staying with in Fla, and his natural mother also.

That would be John Dingell, Democrat. He called them the ATF a group of "jack booted fascists" that he feared the most to be a danger to Americans,  or words to that effect.

I'll give him credit for that one, but still it was the NRA that "popularized" the term and is now responsible for corrupting just about everyone at AR15. [:)]
