DHS Tracked Occupy Wall Street to ‘Control Protesters’

[Triloon]

29. Don't let the past tense fool you.

The article is properly written in the past tense as it is discussing what was found in the wikileaks docs, but that makes it feel like it's all over now, DHS saw everything was cool and has moved on to some other good work. Nope. They are still at it, monitoring social networks, analysing citizens movements and actions, "controlling the protestors" etc.
The amount of infiltration and manipulation that is being revealed in NY and Denver, and elsewhere, is shocking. I'm not surprised or offended that DHS would have a curiosity about this movement, especially since its advocates announce it as a Revolution. But the continuing efforts to dampen and bend the groups purposes and messages is a perversion of the will of the people, a perversion of the effectiveness of the citizens rights to free speech and assembly. And it does continue, today.
