Sometimes you just gotta shake your head and move on.


On April 8, 2013, Judicial Watch filed a Freedom of Information (FOIA) request, seeking from the DOD: “Any and all records concerning, regarding, or related to the preparation and presentation of training materials on hate groups or hate crimes distributed or used by the Air Force.”

Under a section labeled “Extremist Ideologies” the document states, “In U.S. history, there are many examples of extremist ideologies and movements.  The colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule and the Confederate states who sought to secede from the Northern states are just two examples.”

Another section states that “Nowadays, instead of dressing in sheets or publicly espousing hate messages, many extremists will talk of individual liberties, states’ rights, and how to make the world a better place.”

The highlights are mine, and I was ready to respond to these (adjective of your choice) statements, but what would be the point?
