From Washington Attorney General, Bob Ferguson’s 2022 Domestic Terrorism Study:
A note on terminology: “domestic terrorism” (DT) is an undefined term in the Revised Code of Washington, but is defined in the U.S. Code as “activities that (A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State; (B) appear to be intended (i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and (C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.”
It appears that the emphasized portions of the text above are satisfied by politicians and/or law enforcement who create and/or enforce gun control laws in violation of the 2nd Amendment.
Domestic terrorists. Yeah. That sounds right to me.
I look forward to their trials.
LOL!! You still haven’t learned have you. Laws do NOT apply to politicians nor to their hired muscle unless it is necessary to create a scapegoat for political purposes.
Here’s are the commendations of the report, where “DVE” means “Domestic Violent Extremism”:
The rest of the document is typical lefty-speak: they want to treat domestic terrorism with a “public health” model. Much of what is written here is based on an assumption of ‘right wing’ domestic terrorism, which they strive mightily every day to find and when they hire their witch hunters to find it, by Jove, they find someone to call a witch.
They don’t spend any time looking into the left wing domestic terrorism, which starts with indoctrination in the public education system and universities and various non-profits, frequently with the aid of public funds. That said, their recommendations have an interesting clause that will be quite valuable: Legislation disqualifying those who engage in extremist activity from public employment or service. Absolutely support this kind of legislation; the Democrat legislators might find themselves and a lot of their staff suddenly out on the street with nothing to do but wave their professionally printed signs.
Black Bloc, Antifa, the part of BLM that aren’t ‘mostly peaceful’, RevCom, the action wings of environmentalist groups are all domestic terrorists, by the federal definition. Putting on the Black Bloc uniform of all black clothes, hoodie, face covering and backpack is not intended to provide a benefit to the individual. It is to provide deniability for the ones that are pre-planned to commit arson, battery, theft and various other violent and destructive crimes. At minimum, by wearing the Black Bloc uniform to a ‘protest’/riot, that individual is guilty of being an accessory to any crime committed at the gathering by a similarly attired group of people, and those crimes are committed to further a ‘domestic violent extremism’ purpose. Further, the pre-planning and coordination among several people to wear the Black Bloc uniform is conspiracy. I’d say the same for any group that organized an identity concealing uniform to facilitate crime, such as the white pointy uniform of the KKK (who were also the Democrat Party militant wing, back in the day).

When committed by someone we don’t like.
There, I fixed it for them.
Reading the definition, I kept thinking of the FBI.
