Frankly i was far more disturbed by this
FBI Launching Mass Raids of Antiwar Activists’ Homes -- News from Antiwar.com
Insists Raids Are Related to 'Material Support for Terrorism'
by Jason Ditz, September 24, 2010

The FBI is confirming that this morning they began a number of “raids” against the homes of antiwar activists, claiming that they are “seeking evidence relating to activities concerning the material support of terrorism.”

So far there do not appear to have been any arrests related to the raids nor, according to FBI spokesman Steve Warfield, are there any expected. He also insisted that there was “no imminent threat” related to the antiwar organization targeted. Some of the activists say they were ordered to appear before a grand jury, however.

The warrant against antiwar activist Mick Kelly’s home cited efforts to look into his ability to “pay for his own travel” to Palestine and Colombia and appeared to have been little more than a fishing expedition looking for possible links to “foreign terrorist organizations including but not limited to FARC, PFLP, and Hezbollah.” Kelly insists that the raids were about harassing antiwar organizers.

Officials said they were related to a Joint Terrorism Task Force investigation. The JTTF in Minneapolis has a long history of heavy-handed investigations against protest groups, including an attempt in 2008 to infiltrate a vegan potluck.

Most of the raids were conducted in Minneapolis and were related to antiwar leaders in that city. Other raids were also reported in Chicago, Michigan, and North Carolina. Many of the homes targeted in Minneapolis were related to the Marxist-Leninist group “Freedom Road Socialist Organization” (FRSO) but this was not the only group targeted.

According to Reuters, Chicago antiwar activist (and longtime gay rights activist) Andy Thayer was also targeted, which he attributed to “solidarity work, for speaking out on the issues of the day.”

CNN also listed the Palestine Solidarity Group, the Twin Cities Antiwar Committee, and Students for a Democratic Society as groups whose members were targeted. The Twin Cities Antiwar Committee’s office was also raided according to the group’s attorneys.

Yeah. Think of all the shit they will stumble on that isn't terror related. I can only shudder to think how many drug arrests have resulted from the passing of information that was obtained using the patriot act, wiretaps and the reading of our e-mail.

Thumbs down Oil is at $91 per barrel....

They continue to use our tax dollars to fight against the plant that could replace many industries with far cleaner results. Oil is one of these. Not to mention the amount of patients out there who need cannabis to live a better quality of life. They protect people who steal from you because they are thieves themselves. Honor among thieves.

Are you pissed off now!!!! $1.8 billion flowing out this week.
