“In 1776, the Society for the Protection of Loyal Colonists (SPLC) issued a report warning of the rise of the so-called ‘Patriot Movement’ in the American colonies. SPLC spokesman Marcus Potok announced his organization had been monitoring the takeover of royal legislatures, militias, and town councils by anti-government extremists. ‘Dangerous men such as John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, John Hancock, and Benjamin Franklin have stoked the fires of sedition and radicalism among the King’s subjects. As a result, illegal militias have seen explosive growth, fueled by a furious reaction to much-needed revenue laws duly enacted under the authority of the King.'”
