So Now We're Terrorists

At the Liberty Forest Forums it has finally been confirmed that this is real. A memo was just released to Missouri police stating that, in addition to the usual extremists that one might consider part of a militia, supporters of former Presidential candidates Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, and Bob Barr could be terrorists. Oh, and all Libertarians, Constitutionalists, and members of the Campaign for Liberty. Granted, any idea can be taken to such extremes as to promote violence, but this is getting ridiculus, particularly since they mentioned these men by name! And how can you generalize all political parties like that?

Basically, said memo (the jpegs in the article) states that anyone who believes in a North American Union, New World Order, or the economic downfall of the United States is at risk for being an extremist. That's overgeneralizing, especially the bit regarding the economy, as lots of people are thinking that another Great Depression could very well be rushing towards us.

Hopefully, more news sites will start to talk about this so I can link to a source that's not so conspiracy centered, but regardless, I ask you to pass this out to everyone you know, especially if you live in the state of Missouri. I believe that Campaign for Liberty has been alerted about this (I'll have to doublecheck), and we'll wait and see what happens.
