Portland: FBI Raids Homes Looking for ‘Anti-Government or Anarchist Literature’?

~ The Rebel ~ 2012/08/05 01:56:49

When FBI and Joint Terrorism Task Force agents raided multiple activist homes in the Northwest last week, they were in search of “anti-government or anarchist literature.”

The raids were part of a multi-state operation that targeted activists in Portland, Olympia, and Seattle. At least three people were served subpoenas to appear before a federal grand jury on August 2nd in Seattle.

In addition to anarchist literature, the warrants also authorize agents to seize flags, flag-making material, cell phones, hard drives, address books, and black clothing.

The listing of black clothing and flags, along with comments made by police, indicates that the FBI may ostensibly be investigating “black bloc” tactics used during May Day protests in Seattle, which destroyed corporate property.

If that is true, how are books and literature evidence of criminal activity?

    Great job FBI.

    These people are becoming a DANGER TO SOCIETY based soley upon the

    LIES TOLD TO THEM BY THE LEFT.


    Good People on the LEFT need to JOIN the good People on the Right when it comes to the COMMON GOOD of the Great USA.


    Both sides need to DENOUNCE THE CRAP when it appears REGARDLESS OF WHAT SIDE YOU ARE ON.

    We've tumbled over the slippery slope into tyranny. Literature, flags, and black clothing are now considered criminal. Somebody give me directions the the United States. Whatever this place is, it sucks.
