- Peace Garden: FBI Monitors War Protest Rally

FBI Monitors War Protest Rally

Wednesday, March 29, 2006

FBI Monitored Cars Near War Protest Rally. You never know where Osama may be.

The FBI recorded the license plate numbers of a dozen vehicles spotted "in the vicinity of" a Denver bookstore where anti-war demonstrators gathered before a rally, according to an agency document released by the American Civil Liberties Union Tuesday.
"This report raises more questions about the degree to which the FBI is unjustifiably regarding demonstrations and public dissent as potential terrorism," said Mark Silverstein, legal director of the ACLU in Colorado. "Why is the FBI conducting surveillance of a bookstore, monitoring the persons who gather there, and keeping files with lists of license plate numbers?"
The document says a two-hour surveillance of the bookstore showed that at least 40 people "appeared to be involved" in the Revolutionary Anti-War Response demonstration planned later that day in Colorado Springs.
It does not say what led to that conclusion, but it says some of the group "wore all black clothing, including sweat shirts or jackets with hoods."
Of course - hooded sweat jackets. A tell-tale sign.

To save tax dollars I think we should all put peace signs on our car, take a photo of the car and plate and send off to the FBI. Let's make sure they have an up-to-date database of the "enemy."
