Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
You don't know what white power is or how it relates to the militia.

This professor thinks she can erase her guilt by hating her race. How stupid.

Whitmer has only her own damn self to blame.

YOUR WORDS: You don't know what white power is or how it relates to the militia.

MY REPLY: What I do know is this white power terrorist group got Busted for planning this terrorist act of kidnapping the Michigan Governor. If that is NOT a act of domestic terrorism, then what did these "GOOD OLD BOYS" get BUSTED FOR?


Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 9:49AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I'm wondering about the little details, like what makes them militia, or white power terrorists, or right-wing? Prove your assertions Ron. You are SLOPPY as always.

Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 10:16AM

We do know one thing. They HATE Whitmer, with good reason.

It sounds like a criminal conspiracy Ron. I haven't seen anything that supports the use of words like "white power", "militia", or "Right-wing".

Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 10:47AM

If that is NOT a act of domestic terrorism, then what did these "GOOD OLD BOYS" get BUSTED FOR? Steve, what did they get busted FOR?


Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 11:51AM

If you want to know what "they get busted FOR", read the indictment Ron.

Six Arrested on Federal Charge of Conspiracy to Kidnap the Governor of Michigan

Federal Charge of Conspiracy to Kidnap the Governor of Michigan, this real heavy for a white right wing domestic terrorist group. They are taking over in the federal government.

Did the President say anything about this chain of events?

Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 1:20PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Six Arrested on Federal Charge of Conspiracy to Kidnap the Governor of Michigan

The Michigan Attorney General Charged Seven Additional Individuals Following a Coordinated Disruption of the Plan

The Department of Justice today announced that six men have been arrested and charged federally with conspiring to kidnap the Governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer. According to a complaint filed Tuesday, October 6, 2020, Adam Fox, Barry Croft, Ty Garbin, Kaleb Franks, Daniel Harris and Brandon Caserta conspired to kidnap the Governor from her vacation home in the Western District of Michigan. Under federal law, each faces any term of years up to life in prison if convicted. Fox, Garbin, Franks, Harris, and Caserta are residents of Michigan. Croft is a resident of Delaware.

I still haven't seen anything that supports the use of words like "white power", "militia", or "right-wing".

Have you completely watched this video report Steve?

Because if you did, you would see the answer to that question within the first minute of this report.


Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 3:38PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I've seen this dumb fake blond self styled militia expert MANY times. She knows no more about the militia than you do Ron. NOTHING she said supported your false claims IN THE LEAST.

Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 6:16PM
Steve Williams
I asked you a question Steve and that question is: "Have you completely watched this video report Steve?"


Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 9:36PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I did watch your video Ron. I saw it twice last night and I watched it again after you posted it today. NO PROOF OF WHITE POWER. NO PROOF OF A MILITIA. NO PROOF EVEN THAT THE CONSPIRATORS ARE "RIGHT-WING".

Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 11:04PM
Steve Williams
Armed militias are believed to be possibly linked in the plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Legitimate militias are legally under the jurisdiction of the president or a governor only, expert Dr. Erroll G. Southers tells Jonathan Capehart.

Then do you think the Sheriff in this case is acting proper with his support of this HATE GROUP?




Saturday, October 10th 2020 at 11:33PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Steve, do you know what Article 1 Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution say about MILITIA?

The Congress shall have Power To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the laws of The Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions:

To provide for organizing, arming, and discipling, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in The Service of The United States, reserving to the States receptively, The Appointment of The Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress.

Now if these Good Old Boys was a Militia, they would be there to protect the government. Now what makes these GOOD OLD BOYS a different is they planned to disrupted the Government by kidnapping the Governor and put her on trial and kill the police, This is what's call A Domestic Terrorist Group.


Sunday, October 11th 2020 at 12:15AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
The conspirators were not a militia Ron. That has been my point all along. The militia is just as Dr. Erroll G. Southers told you. But why did you need ME to point you to AM Joy for that rare moment of truth?

Monday, October 12th 2020 at 9:58AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
That's not what I came away with at all. He made a point of the KKK leader in spiritual alliance with the Al Qaeda leader after 911. What kind of extremism do you see in that case? From the start he stresses the uselessness of profiling. I'm sure you saw that Ron.

Monday, October 12th 2020 at 10:09AM
Steve Williams
YOUR QUESTION: What kind of extremism do you see in that case?

MY REPLY: I see Steve this threat, That these GOOD OLD WHITE BOYS are threating to disrupted the smooth running of The United State Government by kidnapping a sitting governor of a state, put that governor in a FAKE TRIAL and then kill her, death by hanging.

YOUR WORDS: Who invented your classification Ron?

MY REPLY: The same government agency that BUSTED this angry white nationalist terrorism group. Hey Steve, have you ever heard of THE F.B.I.?

YOUR WORDS: In particular, what makes the conspirators "terrorists"?

MY REPLY: "HATE!!!"

YOUR WORDS: What have you heard thaat I haven't?

ix Arrested on Federal Charge of Conspiracy to Kidnap the Governor of Michigan

The FBI didn't bring a charge of terrorism Ron. The charge is conspiracy to kidnap.

Monday, October 12th 2020 at 8:50PM

U.S. Attorney Birge said that “Federal and state law enforcement are committed to working together to make sure violent extremists never succeed with their plans, particularly when they target our duly elected leaders.” VIOLENT EXTREMISTS."

“All of us can disagree about politics, but those disagreements should never, ever result in violence,” stated U.S. Attorney Matthew Schneider. “The allegations in this complaint are deeply disturbing. We owe our thanks to the men and women of law enforcement who uncovered this plot and have worked so hard to protect Governor Whitmer.”

“These alleged extremists undertook a plot to kidnap a sitting governor,” said Assistant Special Agent in Charge Josh P. Hauxhurst. “Whenever extremists move into the realm of actually planning violent acts, the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force stands ready to identify, disrupt and dismantle their operations, preventing them from following through on those plans.”

The FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force stands ready. That was a good read, Thank You Steve.

I for one believe that The FBI has a very good case to lock these THUGS up for a long while. Steve, don't you understand that these people was planning on overthrowing a local government, can you see that?


Tuesday, October 13th 2020 at 8:27AM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
The charges that reference terrorism are all state charges. I heard Nessel or Whitmer say she "thought" Michigan could get the charges to stick. Whichever one it was, she didn't sound very confident. What do you know about it Ron?

Tuesday, October 13th 2020 at 9:38AM
Steve Williams
It looks to me like Michigan doesn't really have a case:

750.543b Definitions.
Sec. 543b. As used in this chapter:
(a) "Act of terrorism" means a willful and deliberate act that is all of the following:
(i) An act that would be a violent felony under the laws of this state, whether or not committed in this state. (ii) An act that the person knows or has reason to know is dangerous to human life.
(iii) An act that is intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or influence or affect the conduct
of government or a unit of government through intimidation or coercion.

Militia expert: Trump’s comments were ‘call to arms’ to white power extremists In the wake of the FBI thwarting a plot to kidnap and possibly kill Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, militia expert Kathleen Belew joins Lawrence O’Donnell to explain the movement and that this is part of a larger plot to subvert democracy...

“Terrorism” is a word that right-wing media figures at Fox News and AM talk radio are quick to use in connection with far-right radical Islamist extremists such as ISIS (Islamic State, Iraq and Syria), al-Qaeda and Boko Haram, but they haven’t been nearly as quick to use that word in connection with violent white nationalist, white supremacist and militia groups. However, Belew has long been sounding the alarm about the threat white nationalist and militia groups pose from a nationalist security standpoint in the United States.

“These groups are never neutral,” Belew told O’Donnell. “They are always part of intimidation and violent threat, and some of them, as we see this week, stray further along that path to domestic extremism and domestic terror. Now, the plot to kidnap the Michigan governor is not new. These sorts of ideas about kidnapping judges and state troopers, federal agents, elected officials and holding them for trial (are not new).”

In Michigan, militia groups like the Wolverine Watchmen — who have been implicated in the alleged plot against Whitmer —are furious with the governor because of the social distancing measures she ordered in response to the coronavirus pandemic. And Belew stressed to O’Donnell that the alleged plot against Whitmer is not an anomaly and that militia groups have a long history of violent extremism in the United States.

“There’s a very real chance that what they meant was not just trial, but execution,” Belew told O’Donnell. “These kind of things have appeared to us many times in the past. The militia of Montana sought this kind of strategy, and so did other white power groups like The Order earlier in the 1980s. We’ve been with this movement for decades, if not generations — and the question is: why is it still here? Why have we, as a society, not confronted this threat?”

O’Donnell asked Belew what she thought of Whitmer saying that Trump has been encouraging white nationalist terrorism with his rhetoric, and the University of Chicago history professor responded, “I think that’s right. I think that even in the most generous interpretation of what the president has said in the last, you know, weeks, months and years — just take the example last week with the debate and the Proud Boys comment. It’s possible, in the most generous interpretation, that he meant to tell that group to stand down. But he didn’t say stand down. He said, ‘Stand by.’ And a whole bunch of activists — not just the Proud Boys, but people in militias, people in white power groups and elsewhere — have been effectively called to arms by the president’s comments. And it’s not just me who says this, not just historians. His own Department of Homeland Security and FBI have outlined that domestic terror from white supremacist extremists and affiliated groups is now the largest source of terrorist violence in the American homeland.”

Steve, I am shocked that you want to support a group like these GOOD OLD WHITE BOYS plan to kidnap a siting Governor, put her on trial and then hung the death, All because of her view on wearing FACE MASK.

I see that you really support these GOOD OLD WHITE BOYS DOMESTIC TERRORIST THUGS. WOW!!!

Why do I have to scroll back and forth to read your long sentences Ron. I don't need your Bing search string.

Wednesday, October 14th 2020 at 11:05AM

You can't pin a label of domestic terrorism on the conspirators. My prediction is that Michigan won't be able to prove the charges brought by the state. Typically Ron, you'll be long gone by the time any verdicts come down. So really, your outrage is not justified.
