Maybe FBI will stop spying, targeting and prosecuting Peace and Anti War activists
my friends who are peace activists are facing being sent to Grand Jury for their peace work. so far there are 20 others facing Grand Jury trial.


Maybe the FBI should be targeting those who advocate violence instead of peace.. what a concept.

2. Snooping around violent right wingers is dangerous
Anti-war groups are easy pickings, and you get to bully a bunch of people who don't believe in answering violence with violence.

5. Oh, of course they won't stop targeting us!
We're peaceful but we're truth-seekers. One need look no further than the the US looking to subpoena anyone who followed wikileaks on twitter. That would mostly be our side, I'd bet. :(

But K&R anyway for the dream.

As long as the hate groups support the wars, they'll be left alone.

7. They know the peace activists aren't dangerous -- they're the sanest activists.
It's strictly for intimidation that peace activists are hassled. They get arrested for just assembling. Baggers get away with assembling AND hateful rhetoric at their open assemblies; they carry guns to Democratic gatherings -- because they are acceptable to the powers that be.

8. Maybe the Aryan Nations will team up with the Chasidic Jews to form a motorcycle gang
and call it "Sons of Channuky". Ron Pearlman and katy Segal can reprise thei roles from Sons of Anarchy.

But seriously, you must be joking.

Besides one day those hate groups will be forming posses and working with Law Enforcement Officials to make sure Liberals, the unemployed, the impoverished, Arabs, gays, environmentalists and other enemies of the state are in HappyFunTime Relocation Camps...for their own protection, of course.

I wouldn't hold your breath.

9. NEVER GONNA HAPPEN. This targeting of the peaceful and harmless
while ignoring the RW terrorists is just par for the course with the FBI. They are a bunch of RWers themselves and would never go after their buddies.

15. Absolutely! Never gonna happen. That the peaceful are being targeted and RW
terrorists ignored would seem irrefutable on its face. ;)

13. K&R-thank you for the opportunity to sign this...I haven't been on an FBI list for
many decades, so I guess it's about time to do so again...
