justice, you can BET the FBI and DHS will be watching. COINTELPRO is still alive and well. We will also be able to expect provocateurs to be planted, perhaps violent ones, so the police can then come in with truncheons and rubber bullets and worse.

Have you all noticed how the racist Ku Kluxer sicko who gunned down those people in Charleston is NOT being called a terrorist even though he definitely IS, while the Islamic guy who opened up in that shipyard is being called a terrorist.

Corporate propaganda folks. It has that much nuance. They call the one a terrorist because it's good for a few million in appropriations to the military industry complex, but some racist kills a bunch of innocent PoC and nothing is said - because they won't make any profit off calling that what it actually is.
