Bad-Jacketing Patriotism, Again

The shooter at LAX was carrying so-called "patriot movement propaganda":

What was it? A copy of the US Constitution? Rush Limbaugh's new book?

What kind of idiot carries "a note saying he intended to murder at least one Transportation Security Administration officer"? And what kind of idiot believes any of this shit?

In 1776 the American colonists decided to use lethal force to throw off the chains of tyranny. In 2013 the American people are using lethal force to hammer those chains back on.

The direction all this is going is the following: eventually "patriotism" and "religion" will be hate crimes, and any expression of either will be severely punished.

And there's nothing any of us can do about it.
