She says officials need to drill down and analyze the factors that make a young person, raised in the U.S., migrate to extremist beliefs and actions.
I wonder exactly who she's talking about here? The groups she named in the DHS report last year...that would be -- you guessed it -- people like me, you, veterans, Christians, anti-abortionists, those against obama's policies, those worried about government spending, etc, etc, etc...
This is our government folks. More worried about we the people than real terrorists. Note she says "just as big a concern as terrorists..."
I wont be laughing anymore when someone laughs when things like martial law, gun confiscation, concentration camps are mentioned...

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano says in the past year, more of the violent extremism that has been seen overseas is showing up in the U.S.
WASHINGTON -- Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano says terrorists who are U.S. citizens or live in the country legally and plot against the U.S. are just as big of a concern as international terrorists.
She says that when she started as secretary a year ago, the focus was largely on international terrorists who want to harm U.S. interests. But in the past year, more of the violent extremism that has been seen overseas is showing up in the U.S.
She says officials need to drill down and analyze the factors that make a young person, raised in the U.S., migrate to extremist beliefs and actions.
Napolitano was speaking to governors who are in Washington for their annual conference.
