Good article, & the results were? Codrea/others have been doing similar for quite awhile w/ little recognizably changing for the better & in fact things seem to have gotten increasingly worse. That doesn't mean that those who're involved in documenting LE illegality should stop & others who want to join in shouldn't do so, it just means that expectations of rectification should be kept to a minimum since the heavy hitters (Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Hannity, Beck, et al.) aren't going to really go against the cops as de facto unconditional support for LE's actions is part & parcel of the type of 'patriotic conservatism' they're peddling & that their audiences overwhelmingly support. And that lil' 'inconvenient' fact should be kept in mind by those who think that a good sized chunk of the public will rally to them/their cause when the Imperium takes off the gloves & really gets going. Counting on NO help from those outside of the fight is an intellectually honest appraisal of the potential situation of a resistance fighter in modern America. Hoping for external assistance is fine, but relying on it being there is childishly stupid @ best.
Very interesting. So did they tick him off or did he get a conscience?
