The Making of a Homegrown Terrorist

The real threat to the West is not from foreign jihadis but from 'unremarkable' civilians within our societies, says an insightful new report from the New York Police Department.

    So, how are Homegrown Terrorists Made? They are made by growing up in the belly of the beast, living the corruption first hand and being eternally sickened by the mentality and actions of their peers and elders. Observing humanity forfiet their right to morality and make all their decisions based on fear and hate. Homegrown terrorists are made by A Country that has caused more terror, genocide and HOMEGROWN DEATH/RACISM/HOMOCIDE in the past year than the holocaust. Ever seen 'He was a Quiet Man?' or 'Fight Club?'

    Revolution is needed to ensure humanity is not enslaved by the present, technologically advanced, totalitarian government. However, Revolution is considered terrorism thanks to Executive Order HR6166 and the 'John Walters Act of 2007.' This false consciousness is invoked and pushed into the minds of obidient viewers by the neo-con media.

    Most forget why the constitution was even written. It was written so we could overthrow the government if they became too powerful, and they wouldn't be able to stop us because the authors assumed we the people would remain organized and vigilent for our freedoms. However, all of the entertainment and 'doggy treats' awarded for behaving well has clouded 'the peoples' vision. They are no longer peoples, they are now media controlled zombies. The zombies have forgotten why they are so priviledged in the first place, even who they are.

    The media's attempt to shift the pace from overseas security to homeland security is a cheap trick that will result in many jailed and put into makeshift concentration camps (of which, hundreds do exist, currently, and are NOT a conspiracy, I have seen one myself.) Anyone who does not want to be a slave is a terrorist. But what the hell does terrorist mean? It is a very broad stereotype manufactured without a clear description, a terrorist is whoever the media says is a terrorist. First it was Bin Laden, now it is Animal Rights Activists and Activists of Any Kind, next it will be any member of the ACLU, NRA and eventually anybody who is not a Christian. The solution to this totalitarianism, and this is stated from a purely factual and objective standpoint, is a revolution, or for the desensitized, ignorant, uninformed, larger-part of America ... 'Terrorism.' The media, has failed, Ecspecially newsweek. The Militias have failed, and been dismantled by Homeland Security (The nazi-equivelent of Secret Police). Always remember, one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. "Homeland Terrorists" as they will soon be called, are fighting for YOUR Mental Freedom, for your liberation from definite slavery and deception.

    "Those who ask for both Freedom and Security deserve Neither." If you do not understand what this means, today, right now, is the time to discover that meaning.

    Has it ever occured to anyone to wonder why not just Muslims, but young people in general may be undergoing a process of radicalization? it seems to be the only viable alternative to sheer decadence, which there is plenty of. somehow, although i don't justify the violence, i can certainly sympathize with the idealism: what is there about this country to believe in anymore???? we are the piggies of the world, our system is being destroyed by the current president, corruption is everywhere, and we have outlawed morality...i see nothing but a growing chasm, where the middle is disappearing...when we have so little justice at home, what right do we have to point the fingers at other societies? between physical death and spiritual death, sorry, i'd rather be blown up than lose my soul and my humanity to the american death culture.
