This may surprise you, but I don't sit here all day waiting for your questions. A conspiracy? By whom? Why would the government want to discredit Occupy, which was founded and funded by Obama's union goon supporters? I predict the charges will be dropped eventually. As for the larger issue of the FBI finding people like this and basically planning the event for them, then arresting them in the act, I already said I find it troubling. I found it troubling when they did it to the KKK and like groups, I found it troubling when they did it to islamist terrorist wannabes, and I find it troubling now. However, i also find it troubling that there are so many people out there who are amenable to such suggestions. I have to say, if they go so far as to be pushing detonators which they think are live, then I can swallow my concerns. I do find it very interesting that the media and liberals in general only became concerned about this kind of sting when these Occupy scum were arrested.
I have no problem with proactive law enforcement, nor is there any vast conspiracy as you claim. These scumbags placed and repeatedly tried to detonate what they thought were real explosives and nobody made them do it. Fuck them; they belong behind bars.
and how are these guys part of OWS? Every story I see about it does not mention that. Do I have to go to Fox News for the "truth" ?
ALLEGED PLOTTERS LINKED TO OCCUPY MOVEMENT The Occupy Cleveland group acknowledged in a statement posted on Facebook that the men arrested were associated with the movement. "They were in no way representing or acting on behalf of Occupy Cleveland," the organization said, adding the group was committed to non-violent protest. http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/05/01/us-usa-security-cleveland-idUSBRE8400UY20120501 Occupy protesters must ask serious questions about their open-arms policy in light of charges brought against five members accused of trying to blow up an Ohio bridge, a top Cleveland official said Wednesday. http://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...plot-alleged/2012/05/02/gIQAQlCexT_story.html On what appeared to be the Facebook pages of Hayne, Stafford and Baxter, there were claims that they were affiliated with Occupy Cleveland, which moved swiftly Tuesday to distance itself from the bridge plot. http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2...rchists-nabbed-in-plot-to-blow-up-ohio-bridge May 1 (Bloomberg) -- Five people "associated with Occupy Cleveland" were arrested in a federal sting operation in which FBI agents provided fake explosives to suspects allegedly intending to bomb an Ohio bridge.
