Homeland Security has it backward

The Department of Homeland Security does not want to insult Islamic terrorists that are working intently every day to kill innocent Americans, but apparently has no problem insulting our returning heroes from Iraq or anybody who exercises their freedom of speech to criticize the current administration, supports the second amendment, supports the enforcement of binding immigration laws or happens to believe that abortion is wrong. In its new report warning police departments of the growing threat of "right wing extremists," DHS lumped honorable Americans exercising their Constitutional rights with true terrorists. Yet this is the same DHS that has publicly announced that it will no longer obey the existing federal law that requires the deportation of illegal aliens and has changed the term "terrorist attack" to "man caused disaster" to make sure that we don't hurt the feelings of Islamic terrorists. At what point do we the people say enough of this politically correct lunacy and demand responsible government actions?
