FBI WARNS OF MILLENNIAL VIOLENCE RISK

The WASHINGTON POST is reporting on Sunday: "The FBI is warning police chiefs nationwide that it's discovered evidence of religious extremists, racists, cults and other groups preparing for violence as New Year's Eve approaches, and is urging law enforcement agencies to view the dawn of the next millennium as a catalyst for criminal activities."

The scare story is the paper's lead in Sunday editions.

The paper's David Vise and Lorraine Adams detail a secret FBI 34-page report obtained by the POST:

"The FBI says those most likely to perpetrate violence are either motivated by religious beliefs relating to the Apocalypse or are New World Order conspiracists convinced the United Nations has a secret plan to conquer the world."

The POST reveals, the FBI report warns that says some members of militias and racist groups, including one called "Christian Identity" and another called "Odinism," are acquiring weapons and surveying targets in anticipation of the millennium.

Yeah, I read it in the Austin American this morning. They are basically worried about people who are hoarding food, guns and ammo, people moving out to the country, etc. not the kind of people who read and participate on this forum. So don't take your money out of the bank.

What the heck is "Odinism" anyway? Will it wreck my night vision?
