Double Standard
n.
A set of principles permitting greater opportunity or liberty to one than to another
an ethical or moral code that applies more strictly to one group than to another
The term double standard, coined in 1912,[1] refers to any set of principles containing different provisions for one group of people than for another.[2] A double standard may take the form of an instance in which certain applications (often of a word or phrase) are perceived as acceptable to be used by one group of people, but are considered unacceptable—taboo—when used by another group.
A double standard, thus, can be described as a sort of biased, morally unfair suspension (toward a certain group) of the principle that all are equal in their freedoms. Such double standards are seen as unjustified because they violate a basic maxim of modern legal jurisprudence: that all parties should stand equal before the law. Double standards also violate the principle of justice known as impartiality, which is based on the assumption that the same standards should be applied to all people, without regard to subjective bias or favoritism based on social class, rank, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation or other distinction. A double standard violates this principle by holding different people accountable according to different standards. The proverb "life is not fair" is often invoked in order to mollify concerns over double standards.

"Extremist group that sent letter to Culver is recruiting in Iowa
By WILLIAM PETROSKI • bpetroski@dmreg.com • April 3, 2010
The Texas-based Guardians of the free Republics has been quietly recruiting members in Iowa, a member said Friday.
The FBI this week said the extremist group was responsible for sending letters demanding removal of Gov. Chet Culver and more than 30 governors nationwide.
The Guardians group has established an "assembly in Iowa" to promote its plan to restore America, said Hal Epperson, who describes himself as a coordinator of the organization's unit in Phoenix.
"I can tell you that the Guardians have members in every state," Epperson said in an interview. "This is a nonviolent group that has a lawful remedy for the corporate government. ... There is no relationship to the militias or anything of a violent nature or a terrorist nature."
Craig Halverson of Griswold, Ia., national director of a group known as the Minuteman Patriots, said members of the Guardians have been in western Iowa within the past month to recruit people to join.
Halverson said his group is not affiliated with the Guardians, but he is aware of its organizational campaign. Some Iowans have signed a petition circulated by the Guardians, he said.
"It was some people from Nebraska who came across over to Iowa," Halverson said. "They had some meetings in Iowa" and telephone conference calls.
"They are just like the tea party people who are unhappy with the way that government is going, but they took a different route," Halverson added.
More than 30 governors have received letters from the Guardians of the free Republics saying if they don't leave office within three days, they will be removed, according to an internal intelligence note from the FBI and Department of Homeland Security.
Governors who received letters included Republicans and Democrats.
FBI officials said Friday they did not see threats of violence in the group's message. But they have warned law enforcement agencies that the Guardians' call to action could provoke violence by other fringe groups.
The Guardians of the free Republics is described as a sovereign citizens group. The Anti-Defamation League calls such groups a loosely organized collection of people who believe that most governments in the United States are illegitimate.
The Guardians of the free Republics' Web site calls for terminating "illicit corporations posing as legitimate governments" and restoring and reinhabiting the institutions of lawful government.
The group also proposes ending the "foreclosure nightmare," tax prosecutions and the use of "covert contracts," such as car registrations, birth certificate applications and bank signature cards.
FBI spokeswoman Sandy Breault and Robert Brammer, a spokesman for Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller, said Friday they were unaware of any activity in Iowa by the Guardians.
The Iowa Statehouse, which already has metal detectors and security staff at every entrance, has not changed security in response to the group's letter, said Julie Rarick of the Iowa Department of Public Safety. "Our executive protection unit maintains a high level of security at all times," Rarick said.
The FBI's warning comes at a time of heightened attention to extremist groups after last weekend's arrests of nine Christian militia members accused of plotting to kill police officers. The arrests of the so-called Hutaree militia in Michigan may be a sign of a surge of anti-government activity and violence across the United States, the New York-based Anti-Defamation League said Friday.
"Monitoring of Internet chatter related to health care reform and other recent issues indicates that many militia members and anti-government extremists believe this legislation will be followed by the mass legalization of illegal immigrants, postponement or elimination of democratic elections, martial law and gun confiscation," the Anti-Defamation League statement said. "Like the Hutaree, they believe that a 'New World Order' of tyrannical rule is coming."
Brian Lai, a University of Iowa political scientist who has studied terrorism, offered similar thoughts Friday. He said extremist groups fear that government is strengthening its control and that they need to take a stand. But it's also important to recognize such groups have long existed in the United States, he said.
Drake University political scientist Dennis Goldford said groups such as the Guardians "have an entirely unconventional sense of what the Constitution means."
In contrast, tea partiers, for the most part, are still part of mainstream American politics, although they may be at one end of the mainstream, he said. Tea party groups have adopted many different sets of guiding principles, but generally they coalesce around the philosophy of limiting the power of government.
Some extremist groups are often described as far right, but some of their anti-business views are strictly far left, said Tim Hagle, a University of Iowa political scientist. "So they are really kind of anarchists more than anything else," he said.

Good post. Hate groups have apparently been blossoming like crazy and the same militia style organizations from the 1990's when Clinton was elected are popping up again. Funny, they didn't even wait for anything to be done this time. While Obama was still a Senator running for the highest office they were trying to knock him off. Thank goodness he was elected or the economy would not be stabilizing this fast.
McCain said we didn't even have a recession!! He said the economy was strong. Can you imagine what would have happened had the economy just fallen flat on it's face? Remember when that one Republican Senator held up unemployment benefits for five days? Thousand of people were affected. That's from five days!
