Why do we hate us?

Why do we hate us?

Yep, we've got our own wackos. The non-Islamic kind. Like these ones in Kallispell, Montana.

All I can say is, I'm glad this situation is in the capable hands of Flathead County Sheriff Jim Dupont.

According to Sheriff Dupont, a license plate reform group called Project Seven (so-named because Flathead County license plates all begin with a 7) was "planning on assassinating as many cops and public officials as possible" with a massive arsenal of "weapons, ammunition, survival equipment, booby traps, body armor, explosives, bomb-making equipment, you name it."

"It all certainly supports the theory," said Sheriff Dupont, "that there was going to be big trouble." 

"Last I heard, it didn't take 30,000 rounds of ammo to kill a turkey."

That was basically the situation last I heard, too.

They've collected a lot of evidence, including a couple of encrypted hard drives, but some of the conspirators seem to have been one jump ahead of the cops.

"At one home already investigated with a search warrant, Dupont said, the place was cleaned out before officers arrived."

Outside was "a pile of burnt ashes - fresh ashes," he said.

"There went the evidence."
