What group did Randy Weaver (moreso his wife) go to some meetings of?
I don't think many people are very careful about distinguishing people who are not PC.
Especially journalists - if you simply believe in being proud of your own European culture, you will be a Nazi, skinhead, etc. in their mind. Not that there AREN'T people who are racist, or Nazi, or whatever, but the liberal thought police are a bigoted bunch, even more than many of those they condemn rightfully or not.
Christian Identity the group is not at all attractive to me. But in a twisted way, it's very existence seems to really serve the government's ends very well.
What a great way to discredit people who believe in the Bible, 2nd Amendment, Bill of Rights, and don't believe in expansive government, have some question about how the income tax amendment was passed, want to stick with their own kind, etc: Come up with a group with really extreme ideology, then use them to make anyone who shares any of their beliefs sound like a complete wacko themselves.
