Good Evening Everyone!

domestic terrorism ... as frightening as terrorism 'external'

Good evening Anderson & 360 team.
Good evening fellow bloggers.

Anderson, thank you so much for devoting a show to this very serious and dangerous issue. We are really looking forward to what you have found out.

Helloooo Anderson, Erica, Edurrado(Ed Henry) David Gergen and my friends Twitter/Facebook Bloggers!!!!!
Happy Friday night!!!! Can't wait forward this weekend!!!
I am glad James Von Brunn charged his murder.

Of course the election of our first African-American President has put these white intolerant smoldering extremists over the top. They need to stop, wake up, take a look around, and give him some time. He is actually helping your life in my view. He is doing a great job considering the cards he was dealt (my 401K is back on the way up). I am not Black, but I am very proud to have hime as our President (smart as a tack and pragmatic).

Excellent topic for tonight! I'm enjoying it.

Hello Fellow Bloggers –

Yeah, we get to blog tonight! Hope everyone had a good day –

This lone wolf stuff is pretty scary –

How interesting!

Wow i'm glad AC brought back Potok and Gletty back on. This problem is a huge hidden issue and these men know a lot about it.

A very interesting article in the Washington Post today shows the dilemma of US authorities – both the Department of Homeland Security as the FBI – on which the limits for the police intervention in cases of radical extremist groups when the speech is propagator of hatred and intolerance with for certain groups of society.

Sad to see President Obama's name dragged into this - his demeanor is so "no drama" - not sure why he would excite anger. Not sure where all these "gun owners" are getting all riled up about him taking their guns away - he has made no effort to do so –

Just recently found out there is at least one white supremacy group in my University. Are they more likely to be in around college campuses?

Happy Friday Anderson, crew, bloggers. I don't think it takes much to fuel these haters. Which is scary because now I'm sure they perceive there is much to hate, not the least of which is that we have an African American president. I'm not sure what can be done to stop a "lone wolf". I'm sure there's a profile but I bet an 88 year old is not part of that profile.

The daily challenge of the authorities today is to find the balance between civil liberties of American citizens and the need to investigate activities that could lead to criminal conduct.

After all there is freedom of expression. How not to harm freedom of expression, but also protect the innocent citizen?

Good evening everyone. Anderson, as scary as these lone wolves are, I thank you for bringing this special report to us tonight. We need to be aware so that they may be stopped!

Evening Anderson, Erica, Isabel, everyone. Happy Friday all.

Yes, it's important to come to a better understanding of the lone wolf problem, to learn if it's really expanding, to figure out the motives to see if we can prevent the crimes lone wolves commit.

@Isabel domestic terrorists can be just as dangerous as external terroists. Some of these people though can be called violent extremists.

There is the dilemma of U.S. authorities – both the Department of Homeland Security as the FBI – on which the limits for the police intervention in cases of radical Extremist groups when the speech is of Propagator with hatred and intolerance for certain groups of society.

There has been a great deal of reporting in all media that Pres. Obama is going to take our guns away.

Some suppliers have run out of ammunition at times.

Although i am a gun rights supporter (for those who take the time to train with guns), i believe "responsible use of guns for sport / hunting is what Most gun owners believe in.

Self defense is another. It's heartening that the large amount of gun owners Do No use their weapons the way these lone wolves do.

We can anything to do prevent ourselves without violence problem growing big to stop hate crime.

@ David, Indiana

Today in the Washington Post there is a article that comments that the white supremacist movement has changed in profound ways since the 1990s. Charismatic leaders of the largest groups have gone to prison or died in recent years, producing more Lone Wolves and splinter cells that Recruit new members using the Internet.

All seek for signs of a change of attitude in Tehran, whose relations with Washington got worse with Ahmadinejad

@Isabel It's also important in looking to acts of violence committed by extremists to not in the rush to find the culprits also rush to judgment and wrongfully impact an innocent person. Initially, Richard Jewell was believed to be the perpetrator of the Olympic Park bombing. I'm not sure when or how law enforcement figured out it was Eric Rudolph, but they finally got it right.

In discussing the unabomber, it's important to remember that he has a serious mental illness (I believe he was diagnosed with schizophrenia). The reasons for his behaviors are therefore drastically different than the other "lone wolves" out there. Anyone who has schizophrenia and is left untreated is much more likely to commit violence than others in the general population.

This is not a "lone wolf" even if he acted alone. He is part of a national disengaged population either alone or grouped in small portions throughout our country that are just waiting for prime conditions (our first African-American President; not so great economy; bickering on Capital Hill about multiple issues because Obama is too smart for them and wants to move quickly; angry comments from foes abroad; etc.) to act out with violence.

@ star formerly known as vincent - I'm not against people owning guns for sport or self protection - (however, I don't understand why any individual needs to own a semi-automatic weapon) - but where are the gun owners who are stock piling ammunition get the idea that President Obama is going to take their guns away. I just don't understand it.

Evening Anderson and everyone on this great show

Great Show topic for tonight Yes it is one law enforcements biggest problems with these lone wolfs. They are the USA's number 1 domestic terrorist

It is about time the FDA was given the right to regulate tobacco products hopefully it will curve the underage smoking that is going on in USA towns and cities.

Isabel – Brazil

You make an excellent point regarding the balance of freedom and protection of innocents.

And your mention of the Washington Post article was enlightening. Thank you.

So sad that some people are lonely and rejected by others in life and use their strong beliefs against others. They are craving for attention. I believe we need more love in this world, not hate.

It's so good to see a former skinhead who is redeemed

Oh, no, not the former skinhead segment shown last night - the guy just bothers me –

@Isabel, I guess any news about the white supremacist movement is bad news, but it is good to learn that the groups themselves seem to be dying out. Unfortunately there are the lone wolves and splinter groups left as a continuing mess, that dangerously crops up. I believe pursuing an ever more civil society and loving world is the best way to prevent these groups from coming to exist. Thanks for noting the Washington Post article. I'll check it out.

God bless Mr. Leyden because it is education that will really help many people to truly understand that ALL of us have rights and we must learn to live together!

I've found that people who have predjudices often can't explain , with any credi bility, why they don't like whatever race or religion that they "hate".

I also found that it is almost Alway fear and ignorance that fed their predjudices.

The government, authorities and people have to quote and not allow such thoughts take power, despite the freedom of expression.

Bad thoughts or concepts precoceituosos should be repudiated.

Why are hate groups in the us able to have web sites and other prominent means to encite hatred and violence-when groups like the "Black Panthers" were put down like dogs for fear they would
encite violence.

Even the FBI classified the assassination on Wednesday as “domestic terrorism” and the FBI waving with a warning.

It's the mishandleing of guns which is the problem.

Hey Anderson
Nice show tonight,but when will you back in N.Y?

@Glenn, the Black Panther didn't just incite violence, they DID violence. All speech, even hate speech is protected by the 1st Amendment.

I can't wrap my mind around these hate groups. How and when had history taught us that such actions actually lead to a better future? If you ask me, ignorance about other cultures and different ideas and ways of life is what leads to continued hatred. Education is definitely the key.

Thank God its friday,no day longer,a lot of really bad storrys happened last week.

The price of freedom sometimes is a crazy person abusing it.

Lori – IL

I don't understand the desire for semi automatic weapons either. These guns have no other function use that to kill people

I think some people want to "target shoot" with these weapons, perhaps to feel like "soldiers" or powerful.

You my have noticed that when Eric Holder even mentioned a possible change in the law for semi automatic weapons, the NRA and others went a little nuts.

Martina Ilstad Germany
Anderson will be back to NYC next Monday and next week.

Many of the issues she cited are legitimate concerns. Illegal immigration IS out of control, violence in the black community is out of control, and Affirmative Action has become reverse discrimination as demonstrated by the New Haven firefighter case..

For those who actually learn something in school, it is a well-known fact that people with skin other than white are the majority around the world as a whole. And it might come as surprising to those white supremacists, but this fact is not a result of those others taking over. It's geography people!

Hi Anderson, we love having you in California. Your closer, but it sounds like your New Yorkers really miss you. Youre so popular my friend.

If this nazi whants to make us scarry,we have to show them there is law and order in our free countrys,so they at least have no chance.They are what they are frusteded bad people.

Have a good weekend everyone! I'm blogging from my Blackberry,

@ Mike

I agree with you! The price of freedom sometimes is a crazy person abusing it. This balance is so dificult, but not impossible

I'm really glad you're doing a more in-depth show on this topic. It's really time for us all to get a wake-up call on how divided some parts of our society are.

Also really grateful for the in-depth show about abortion earlier this month. Thanks for tackling these divisive issues straight-on and openly.

good news about Modonna

@Mike, Syracuse, NY: the fact that there are extremists among people of every race does not excuse any action of violence or the promotion of violence, regardless of who is the perpetrator. Some of the people known for killing millions did not personally kill any of them.

@ star - I too believe that it is "fear and ignorance that fed predjudices." I often experienced this during my career dealing with international students - I was constantly trying to train staff that one nationality wasn't better than the other, just different. People often have trouble understading/accepting "different."

Sarah Palin is taking complete advantage of Letterman's joke for extra free publicity. When I heard the joke I clearly understood he was referring to Bristol, her 18 yo daughter, not Willow. Letterman himself cleared it up in his next boradcast. But she keeps on putting herself in front of the camera, milking this for all the free publicity she can get.

@Thank you Megan Dresslar for informatin,do you miss him,too?

Good show Anderson. I think you are the only journalist delving into this topic and covering it in depth. I agree with your last guest. Some of the racially charged comments I saw during the campaign prove what she said. That’s why so many people of color still can’t believe President Obama got elected. America has come a long way but it has a long way to go.

Good Night!

@Krasi, that's a very good point, I feel like curiosity about other cultures and ways of life as you say is one of the most enlightened pursuits that there is. Thanks for making that point.

@Isabel, You are taking up an important subject, I think that concept that are prejudiced or otherwise given to hostility or malice come to be repudiated in the Free exchange of idea that comes with a free press and laws and a society that respects the rights of the each and every person.

Please make Sarah Palin go away. Doesn't she understand that while Letterman's joke was in bad taste - it was a joke, he's a comedian - he appologized - get over it. Her carrying on is only drawing more attention to her daughter, something she claims she doesn't want. Makes me wonder what her real motive is.....

is there any such thing as 'good news' anymore? almost every story is about fear, death and mayhem. There might be 1 or 2 stories a day. thank god for CNN heros.

I would not like to be a roommate of the Von Brunn!

@Krasi, I didn't say that the violence was excusable. I said that many of the issues are real, not just dreamed up by these guys. Fix the issues, and they lose their traction to recruit new members.

So to all bloggers,Anderson far away in L.A, Erica and at least Megan i wish you a good night and a verry good weekend,from far away in Germany.
I will try to sleep again,is early in the morning here in Germany,birds start to sing.
Hope to see you next week.

Race is very much alive, especially in bad times, people with small minds need someone to blame!!!!

Good night Anderson, Erica, David G, Edurrado (Ed Henry) and my friend twitter/facebook bloggers!!!!!!!
Have a great night and sleep tight everyone!!!!
Have a great weekend!!!!!! See you on Monday night!

Fellow Bloggers - it's about that time - enjoyed the chat tonight.
(Glad I checked for the blog, since last week's "special" didn't include the opportunity to blog. Think that's why there are so few of us tonight.)

While the "specials" are interesting - I miss the live hour of news - (I think specials should be aired during the second hour - just my opinion,) Looking forward to Monday's program .....

Hope everyone has a good weekend ..... peace.....

People at AC360 Web design: it takes me to open four windows to get finally to the webcast and my computer runs on low virtual memory. Any suggestions?!

The guy was old and crazy and probably hated the fact that the race war has finally come to an end in America.

Anderson & team 360 , thank you for this show! It was very informative and thoughful.

P.S. Martina Ilstad Germany,
Yes, I do miss Anderson.... of course.

I do not feel a killer is from the "right" side of human beings but a mental problem 4 that LONE WOLF.

Good night, Anderson and Erica
Good night, friends, David (Indiana), bloggers, everyone!

@ Virginia

Swine flu – that the first batch of vaccine has been produced for testing.

A great weekend! Bye...

Good night, Anderson and Erica
Good night, friends, David (Indiana), bloggers, everyone!

A great weekend! Bye...

@starr formerly known as vincent Like Lori from IL I agree that prejuidice is fed by fear and ignorance as you said, I also feel life is always pushing to go beyond the horizons of our circumstances whatever they are to more in depth understanding of other and the world we live in.

Oh almost 10 Good night Isabel, good night everyone, great weekend to all
