Add in the element of potential religious profiling for “odd behaviors,” such as homeschooling, “breeding lots of children despite warnings it will kill the planet,” non-vaccinating, homesteading, and most egregious of all-”stockpiling weapons and ammunition,” and you have a true making of a new Waco and Ruby Ridge: yet unleashed on a still small, but much greater portion of the population than some small government defined “cult.”

The new online working group will be chaired by the national security staff at the White House with input from specialists in countering what the Obama administration calls violent extremism.
Also included in the group, according to a White House release, will be “Internet safety experts, and civil liberties and privacy practitioners from across the United States Government.”
The new group says its initial focus will be on raising awareness about the threat and “providing communities with practical information and tools for staying safe online.”
The working group says it will coordinate with the technology industry to “consider policies, technologies, and tools that can help counter violent extremism online” while being careful not to interfere with “lawful Internet use or the privacy and civil liberties of individual users.”
