The Ides of April 19

James Fulford

04/19/2005

Today is the tenth anniversary of the Oklahoma City Bombing, and thus the 12th anniversary of the Waco killings. As a conservative, I'd like to remind people that terrorism against Americans is mostly the province, not of right-wingers, but of the following three groups:

• Foreign terrorists, mostly Arab
• Left-wing nuts
• Immigrant gangs

But it’s also Patriot’s Day, the anniversary of the "Shot Heard Round the World", in Concord, Massachusetts. This shot was fired by… Minutemen.

The fight for freedom has moved a little further south. But the spirit of the Minutemen lives on.
