Another group of right wing extremists murder innocent people in cold blood to further their cause.
I guess maybe we should dig out that report the republican's made Napolitano apologize for and take another look at it eh?
That's not at all fair to say that.
Are they not right wing extremists?

Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik says, "We are not charging any of the minutemen groups with anything. But one of these individuals was involved with one of those groups."
We don't know that yet. Some people are just nuts and they don't do things based on political leaning.
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Two of three people arrested in a southern Arizona home invasion that left a little girl and her father dead had connections to a Washington state anti-illegal immigration group that conducts border watch activities in Arizona.
Jason Eugene Bush, 34, Shawna Forde, 41, and Albert Robert Gaxiola, 42, have been charged with two counts each of first-degree murder and other charges, said Sheriff Clarence Dupnic of Pima County, Ariz.
The trio are alleged to have dressed as law enforcement officers and forced their way into a rural Arivaca home on May 30, wounding a woman and fatally shooting her husband and their 9-year-old daughter. Their motive was financial, Dupnic said.
"The husband who was murdered has a history of being involved in narcotics and there was an anticipation that there would be a considerable amount of cash at this location as well as the possibility of drugs," Dupnic said.
Forde is the leader of Minutemen American Defense, a small border watch group, and Bush goes by the nickname "Gunny" and is its operations director, according to the group's Web site. She is from Everett, Wash., has recently been living in Arizona and was once associated with the better known and larger Minuteman Civil Defense Corps
Forde is well known in the anti-illegal immigration community, said Brian Levin, director of the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism at California State University-San Bernardino.
"She's someone who even within the anti-immigration movement has been labeled as unstable," Levin said. "She was basically forced out of another anti-immigrant group, the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, and then founded her own organization."
Did not Republicans demand Napolitano apologize for a report that predicted this very thing?

Comments like this make it necessary to state the obvious:
No one has been convicted of anything as of yet, only arrested.
Further, the below quote from the article in the local news would seem to indicate that no (to quote you) "group of right wing extremists" has been convicted, let alone accused, of doing any such thing:
Individuals, yes. Groups, no.
Finially, I can truthfully say that I apparently do not pay enough attention to badly beaten dead equines to know what your second statement refers to.
It took 4 posts for this thread to spiral into partisan hackery.
Thank you sir.
Isnt that a new record?

Well so far she is saying she is not guilty so lets see what the courts say.

In the past month, hasn't there been a HUGE upswing in right wing domestic terrorist activity?
Oh, and which part was unfair?
A group, of three, Minutemen, were arrested for murdering a drug dealer AND HIS 9 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER while trying to rob the said drug dealer to get a pile of money to further their cause.
Partially. In all the stories I have read, only one of the arrested persons (the female) is stated to be the leader of one of the groups calling themselves Minutemen. Specifically, a group called "Minutemen American Defense". (Source 1) Although another story states she is a former leader in some group called "Minuteman Civil Defense Corps". (Source 2) Perhaps the latter was too reasonable for her, and the result was MAD?
Are they not right wing extremists?
Very likely. All evidence points to at least the female being so.
Did they not murder an innocent?
According to police, only one of them (not the female MAD leader) did the actual murdering, but yes.
To further their cause?
As far as I know, yes.
Did not Republicans demand Napolitano apologize for a report that predicted this very thing?
No idea.

No idea. Haven't been paying enough attention.
Just which part was unfair?
The overall tone and accuracy of your statement, which attempted to toss a whole bunch of other people/groups under it's damning canopy.
Oh yeah, I got it...... "They "allegedly" murdered...... "
That too.
Please, do let me fix that. IF this is true...... (refer to my first post).
If by "this" you refer to the statement attacking your statement as unfair, then it is true.
There ya go!
^This.^
The AP story makes it clear, these people, group of 3, killed two people to further their group's cause, hoping to get money from a drug dealer to make thier group more "sophisticated".
They've been charged of two counts of murder. But not convicted.
But her association didn’t last long, and within Minuteman group circles Forde is controversial, according to a February article from the Daily Herald in Everett, Wash.
Hal Washburn, vetting officer for Washington state chapter of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, said Forde was encouraged to leave the group over questions about honesty and her inability to follow orders, according to the story. San Diego Minutemen lists Forde among people they won’t work with, calling her “unstable.”
