Now, guys like Communist Missipi have been making racist mlitia comments and his opponents were falling for it and believing real militias are as racist and anti-semitic as CM himself. Is it true?
Allanea went and found out.
The ADL reports on militias offer virtually no facts -- hard evidence, documentation -- to support the ADL's allegations that militias threaten public order. Why are the ADL's reports nearly empty of references to newspaper articles with verifiable specifics as to date, place, time, participants, etc.? The ADL's reports suggest that a tiny minority of militias is run by neo-Nazis, racists, or other bigots. Why should the doings of a tiny, nasty minority be a reason to condemn the vast majority of decent, law-abiding militia-members?

What got Commissioner Kelly's thin blue panties in such a knot was the recent announcement by Rabbi Yakove Lloyd that his Jewish Defense Group would begin nightly armed patrols of the Brooklyn neighborhoods of Borough Park and Flatbush.

In fact, Rabbi Merlmstein, in his 'Ask the Rabbi' column, cooperates freely with militias, see this link here:

On the website of the Michigan Militia (the most famous militia group so far):
Because a well-armed citizenry is the best Homeland Security, and can better deter crime, invasion, terrorism, or tyranny...The intention of this MichiganMilitia.com website is to inform, promote and facilitate the development and training of the militia. Everyone is welcome, regardless of race, creed, color, tint, or hue; regardless of your religion (or lack thereof); regardless of your political affiliation (or lack thereof); regardless of anything else: if you are an American, who is capable of bearing arms, or wishes to support someone doing so, then you ARE the militia...

In fact, the national militia directory, in it's list of 'adversaries common to the militia' lists:
Members of hate groups
Hate groups still exist and they are suspected of recent crimes against persons and property, including the burning of black churches. There is reason to suspect collusion with elements of the Dixie Mafia and racist members of law enforcement organizations. Those who have committed crimes need to be brought to justice, and the others counseled to try to redeem them as good citizens.

Are you guys white supremacist?
We seem to be getting asked this one alot lately. And the answer is NO!!!! NO!!!! NO!!!! We are very diversified, as an example some of our members are jewish, a few are mexican, and others are of varying ethinc backgrounds. But we have always held the belief that these misnomers are forced upon us by those in the media and the government as a way to make the population "disunited". Disunification is the goal of "political correctness", multiculturalism, and ethnic diversity. Each of these liberal ideologies seeks to separate "We the People" so that we may not stand united against our "real" common enemies. We are Americans regardless of our ethnic backgrounds and that is our unifying factor.
