In reply to the discussion: DHS Tracked Occupy Wall Street to ‘Control Protesters’ [View all]99th_Monkey
(19,326 posts)We already have MORE than enough local law enforcement, and the FBI to
deal with criminals and violence-prone groups like neo-Nazis ... but it's
both laughable and outrageous that the gov't is spending literally billion$
to "monitor" Occupy.
This is especially true if you add up costs of all the local police force's
over-time expenses they squander on harassing Occupy, an avowedly
PEACEFUL protest movement committed to non-violence.
Oh I know, a few windows have been broken by BBloc or agent provocateurs,
but they do NOT represent the OWS movement in any way, other than
perhaps in their own twisted minds.
But then, they did that to MLK Jr. the AntiWar movements, not to mention
flat out murdering Black Panthers in middle of night, so i guess we never learn.
