Product details
In "Armed and Dangerous, " James Coates explores the "survivalist" movement that arose during the 1980's, when new, violent right-wing groups first engaged in acts of domestic terrorism.
An investigative journalist, Coates creates a chilling a detailed picture of this extremist right -- its history, its geography, and the troubled and troubling people who are its denizens -- and examines what has caused the virulent combination of power and paranoia which, he warns, inevitably leads to increasingly horrifying acts of terrorism.
He demonstrates how racist theology and tales of Armageddon motivate these paramilitary bands, and in a new preface he explored the connections between the seeds of hate sown in the 1980s and current right-wing militancy.
