Watching Reruns Of Barmy Miller, Part 3

Turns out the head of Joe Miller's security detail (you know, the guys who bravely protect Joe Miller from people asking him questions about his past) has a few interesting connections of his own to Alaska's militia movement.  TPM's Jillian Rayfield:

William Fulton, the head of DropZone Security, denies that he's a member of the Alaska Citizens Militia -- though he inarguably has some ties to the militia, and has even been referred to as the "supply Sergeant" by the head of the group.

DropZone Security was hired as Republican Senate nominee Joe Miller's private security team at his town hall on Sunday, during which Fulton and two of his employees handcuffed and detained Alaska Dispatch editor Tony Hopfinger.

As we've reported, DropZone Security doubles as an army surplus store and bail bonds agency, and is made up of current and former members of the military. The two other agents with Fulton at the Miller event were active-duty military.

As some local outlets have already reported, Fulton himself is a repeated poster on the Alaska Citizens Militia Google Forum, which can be found here. All of his postings are here.

The Alaska Citizens' Militia describes its mission statement as: "To set forth the historical and Constitutional basis for the establishment of the Alaska Citizens Militia; to explain its mission and goals; its uniqueness as the final defense against tyrannical government at all levels; and to suggest an organizational structure."

Among the problems its website lists are "firearms restrictions or other disarmament," "mandatory medical anything," and "involuntary involvement in anything," among other things, in its "ACTS OF WAR" section.

And nobody thinks these might be inappropriate people for Alaska's next Senator to put on his payroll?  I'm curious as to what Miller thinks about all this.  I mean, we know the guy respects the Berlin Wall as a border control tool, now he's got this joker running his security goons.

And this man wants to be a US Senator.  Nice.  I'm beginning to think Alaskan Republicans are crazy as a rule.
