They are known as "Three Percenters," followers of
a movement that has rallied against gun control efforts nationwide, patrolled
the U.S. border with Mexico and recently begun confronting Muslim Americans.
Followers describe themselves as armed "patriots." But some of their leaders have been blamed for threats and vandalism against lawmakers, police and Muslims. One prominent member from Phoenix prompted an FBI alert in November after posting an expletive-filled Facebook video saying he was headed to upstate New York with guns to challenge a Muslim group. A Three Percenter in suburban Dallas led a mosque protest by armed, masked men that same month.
Hopefully, Homeland Security has time to follow these guys as well as the potential Muslim bad guys.
"We will interfere with every move they (Muslims) make
towards taking over our country," Dallas protest organizer David Wright
said in response to questions the Associated Press sent to his personal
Facebook page. "We are ready to fight back if they come at us
violently."
What a hero he is.
Followers appear to consist mainly of white, male,
conservative gun owners who believe the nation has been pushed to a tipping
point by socialists in government aiming to disarm them, strip their
constitutional rights and take their property, according to groups that track
anti-government movements.
