'Twisted Patriots' so that's what they are calling it now?

I subscribe to Time Magazine and received one on Monday in the mail with the picture above on the cover with the headline of 'Locked and Loaded', with so much going on in the world today I didn't know what to expect.  I am taking some pieces of the article   'The Secret World of Extreme Militias',   and I will add my feelings to this to.
So they are calling those that want to stand by and up for their rights given by the Bill Of Rights and Constitution.  Makes you wonder and know why they are so willing to re-write and leave out parts of American History don't you think! 
While this is obvious propaganda but at the same time they call these Brave  Men 'Twisted' when it is the US Government that is the one that is twisted when they lie, attack, raid and kill like they did Ruby Ridge, Waco. why are they raiding and killing those White men, women and children. Why aren’t they raiding and attacking known Islamic/Muslim training camps through out the USA, or protecting our borders. Apparently because that is more proof that Whites are a glitch in their program wouldn’t you say?  

This story reminds me of  some of the words written in 'The Bell'  by Edgar Allen Poe in 1845.
I
Hear the sledges with the bells -Silver bells!What a world of merriment their melody foretells!How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,In the icy air of night!While the stars that oversprinkleAll the heavens, seem to twinkleWith a crystalline delight;Keeping time, time, time,In a sort of Runic rhyme,To the tintinnabulation that so musically wellsFrom the bells, bells, bells, bells,Bells, bells, bells -From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells.

II
Hear the mellow wedding bells -Golden bells!What a world of happiness their harmony foretells!Through the balmy air of nightHow they ring out their delight! -From the molten - golden notes,And all in tune,What a liquid ditty floatsTo the turtle - dove that listens, while she gloatsOn the moon!Oh, from out the sounding cells,What a gush of euphony voluminously wells!How it swells!How it dwellsOn the Future! - how it tellsOf the rapture that impelsTo the swinging and the ringingOf the bells, bells, bells -Of the bells, bells, bells, bells,Bells, bells, bells -To the rhyming and the chiming of the bells!

III
Hear the loud alarum bells -Brazen bells!What a tale of terror, now, their turbulency tells!In the startled ear of nightHow they scream out their affright!Too much horrified to speak,They can only shriek, shriek,Out of tune,In a clamorous appealing to the mercy of the fire,In a mad expostulation with the deaf and frantic fire,Leaping higher, higher, higher,
 
 "I don't know who the redcoats are," says Brian Vandersall, 37, who designed the exercise and tried to tamp down talk of politics among the men. "It could be U.N. troops. It could be federal troops. It could be Blackwater, which was used in Katrina. It could be Mexican troops who are crossing the border."
Or it could be, as it was for this year's exercise, an Islamic army marauding unchecked because a hypothetical pro-Muslim President has ordered U.S. forces to leave them alone. But as the drill played out, the designated opponents bore little resemblance to terrorists. The scenario described them as a platoon-size unit, in uniform, with "military-grade hardware, communications, encryption capability and vehicle support." The militia was training for combat against the spitting image of a tactical force from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), FBI or National Guard. "Whoever they are," Vandersall says, "we have to be ready."
As militias go, the Ohio Defense Force is on the moderate side. Scores of armed antigovernment groups, some of them far more radical, have formed or been revived during the Obama years, according to law-enforcement agencies and outside watchdogs. A six-month TIME investigation reveals that recruiting, planning, training and explicit calls for a shooting war are on the rise, as are criminal investigations by the FBI and state authorities. Readier for bloodshed than at any time since at least the confrontations in the 1990s in Ruby Ridge, Idaho, and Waco, Texas, the radical right has raised the threat level against the President and other government targets. With violence already up on a modest scale, FBI, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and state agencies point to two main dangers of a mass-casualty attack: that a group of armed radicals will strike out in perceived self-defense, or that a lone wolf, trained and indoctrinated for war, will grow tired of waiting. Even the most outspoken militia commanders worry about the latter scenario. Kevin Terrell, a self-described colonel who founded a group of "freedom fighters" in Kentucky and predicts war with "the jackbooted thugs" of Washington within a year, says he has to fend off hotheads who call him a "keyboard commando."
