Talk:The Posse Comitatus

ZOG

This is not a neo nazi orgainization. This is crazy and not academic but propaganda. Do you want me to label every jewish organization "communist" or neo-communist? Two can play at this game people. This is crazy.WHEELER 17:34, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)

It's the use of the "ZOG" concept that puts them in the category for sure. Are you disputing that they do this? - David Gerard 19:53, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)

They arn't neo-nazi, but they are worried about ZOG. There are lots of groups in the neo-nazi cat that shouldn't be, klansmen arn't nazi either, but the word "nazi" is broadly misused, and thus the meaning has begun to change. (Sam Spade | talk | contributions) 09:17, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Survivalism

Yes, their survivalists. Thats a primary theme of theirs (along w entryism into local politics), hunting and hiking and engaging in manuevers and so forth, preparing for WTSHTF (when the $#!^ hits the fan). (Sam Spade | talk | contributions) 09:17, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Okay - I'll leave the article as-is. But from what I know about this group (mostly from two circa 1980s books about the Gordon Kahl affair) they were/are primarily a radical, anti-Jewish group that promotes peculiar theories about taxation, banking and government, and mainly has tried to organize among farmers. There's a lot of incorrect usage of 'survivalist' as a general synonym for the radical right wing. If they do practice survivalism (and there are some radical right groups that do), I wasn't aware of it. Kaibabsquirrel 06:32, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, survivalism and local politics entryism are their main themes. Anti-semitism is not, but they are often racist. I've actually known some of these guys, and they never said anything about Jews, but I'm sure they would have it had come up ;) Their extremely focused on the power of the sherrif and the local govt., and being ready to take on the federal govt. if need be. They are an exceptionally good example of radical localism. (Sam Spade | talk | contributions) 17:56, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
