Isn't it about time the words 'police' and 'intelligence' stop being used in the same sentence like they are in some way compatible?

*fears*

I think that's why they have to bust protestors. getting smart is hard...easier to just arrest the people who are noticing...

if only they would chase ACTUAL terrorists with the same gusto they apply to activists.

"no police intelligence involved" indeed. I also like how they just "found" the records. Like "oh, you mean these records! Well we had these the whole time, sillies!"

the best part is that the fbi agent who busted them did so by begging for food. then they said, c'mon, we have some food in our LEGITIMATELY parked food nor bombs van and then she busted them for trespassing. clearly an instance where someone should have asked "what would jesus do" I mean, hello? posing as a hungry person to bust the people who offer to feed you?

btw, I am now very sick. not like at work today when it was just coming on. very sick. I am not loving it...

That sucks (both the FBI agent`s tactics and the illness). It`s nice that we`re wasting FBI resources like this when seriously bad shit is happening all over the country.

So wait, I gather your sister was one of the protesters involved? Sorry to be slow, but I don`t think I knew about any of this...

yeah. my sister was involved. I think it may have even been before we started hanging out? I do remember telling k and tam about it, though. there was a lot of nastiness. and I was deeply pissed off on sister's behalf. on top of that, I had peopel more or less shrugging it off with the attitude that of course people are going to get hassled if they protest. so I am very glad to see an article in a (mainstream) newspaper saying it's NOT okay to abuse people for exercising their civil liberties, and ps don't mess with my sister!
