Yeah, stuff like this is scary, and when they get caught I don't feel sorry for them..

oh man, I remember hearing about this on the news a couple days ago,

the "christian warriors" that were going to fight alongside Jesus when Armageddon happens.

I guess they didn't read the Bible too closely. The Rapture happens BEFORE Jesus returns, and as good Christians, they wouldn't be around to help him fight. 'Buncha boneheaded nuts looking for a fight.

Boneheads or not, they were able to get their hands on some AK's etc.

German news covered this story, too. A spokesman of some office or watching orgnaisation (don't remember what it was) said that since Obama took over, the number of such hate groups have exploded by 250% percent. In 2009 alone, he said, 300 such groups were founded, causing security offices major headaches, since it has become extremely difficult to monitor all thesemany groups with the existing ressources.

Really? It was my understanding that the concept of the Rapture was an invention by modern Christians and has no actual basis in Biblical texts. I'm sure I'm wrong, though. I often am when it comes to Christian stuff, pparently.

While it is a good thing these wackos got stopped I cant help but feel the media coverage on this thing is wall to wall.

It's not like this was a massive movement its a small splinter group of nut jobs. Why the barrage day and night of coverage on this?

But you dont hear much about this situation.

CIUDAD JUÁREZ, Mexico — The killing of an American consulate worker and her husband over the weekend in the shadow of the bridge that links this ramshackle city with the United States has become a public symbol of the mounting concern here that President Felipe Calderón’s strategy for attacking Mexico’s drug cartels is veering far off course.
