American Terrorists-- Check out what's going on in Central Florida--F'ing scary.

Excellent work here by Law Enforcement.

ST. CLOUD — A neo-Nazi motorcycle gang created by an undercover law-enforcement unit to investigate white supremacists and racist bikers has helped topple two domestic-terrorism groups in Central Florida.

The original investigation began in 2007, when an undisclosed agent traded emails with August Kreis III, a leader of the Aryan Nations hate group who wanted to form a Nazi motorcycle club to serve as the militant arm for white supremacists across the country, according to records obtained by the Orlando Sentinel.

One I know personally has a birth defect that prevented him from growing over 4'6" and has one leg shorter than the other. Most, like the Nazi bikers, are just noisy idiots who like to follow someone.

Hitler may be flattered, but he would not be proud of how his master race has turned out.

I don't know which critter represents the Democrats, but Republicans are definitely the Zerg:

* Individual Zerg do not think for themselves.

* They are controlled by an overmind.

* They expand their territory by throwing down a carpet of slime, called CREEP.

* They are greedier than everyone else and require more drones at the bottom for their society to function.

* They were created by the Confederates.

And I live next to the University of Central Florida. The 3rd largest University in the Country.

What a mix we have here in Florida.

Once my wife and I hit empty nest--- a couple more years--- we're out of here.

after having been raised in Miami. Mom was from Phiadelphia, and Dad grew up in Miami and South Jersey.

The oldest one called home after his first week at U of F and said "Mom, I had no idea there were so many rednecks here in Florida!" (yeah, I know, the kid was painting with a broad brush) Both kids moved immediately to suburban Philadelphia after college.

My friend was taking care of her elderly mom in West Palm Beach, and as soon as her mom died and her husband could find a new job up north, she and her husband moved as well. The whole family wanted to get the hell out of Florida just like the trumads are planning to do.

We do have a huge mix here and a lot of the mix are people from other states that want some sunshine. It is more of a melting pot than a lot of other places in more ways than one.

The bars in Bithlo and even east 50 on the way there have always been too interesting for my taste. The Outlaws have been out in east Orange Co. for a very long time. These days, once you get past Lake Pickett Road, you can pretty much cue the banjo music all the way to Titusville.

My kids, one is already up north, and the youngest is doing whatever she can to go there when she graduates with her BFA next May. So I am pretty sure my kids and grandkids will all be up north soon.

I need to tack a few more years onto the pension, unless I can find something better. This might allow time for the housing market to recover a little. But I expect I will be following them to someplace a bit more blue as soon as I can pull it off.

Not one bit surprised that this kind of thing was going on in this area. Not when I saw so close and personal what the "proper" community leaders were getting away with.

No one is minding the store.
