Those who think that it is possible to reform this government with the politicians and political parties we have now from the inside are either completely fucking stupid, completely fucking naive, or bat shit fucking crazy. This is a planned economic implosion. The second wave is on the horizon. Occupy wall st. in the grand scheme of protests is nothing absolutely a blip as far as movements go and they went apeshit to stop it just imagine what they will do when the people get mad or start to panic??? We need to organize NOW it will be too late later.
- by Beau Hodai, CMD/DBA On May 20, 2013, DBA Press and the Center for Media and Democracy released the results of a year-long investigation: "Dissent or Terror: How the Nation's Counter Terrorism Apparatus, In Partnership With Corporate America, Turned on Occupy Wall Street.” The report, a distillation of thousands of pages of records obtained from counter terrorism/law enforcement agencies, details how state/regional "fusion center" personnel monitored the Occupy Wall Street movement over the course of 2011 and 2012. The report also examines how fusion centers and other counter terrorism entities that have emerged since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 have worked to benefit numerous corporations engaged in public-private intelligence sharing partnerships. While the report examines many instances of fusion center monitoring of Occupy activists nationwide, the bulk of the report details how counter terrorism personnel engaged in the Arizona Counter Terrorism Information Center (ACTIC, commonly known as the "Arizona fusion center") monitored and otherwise surveilled citizens active in Occupy Phoenix, and how this surveillance benefited a number of corporations and banks that were subjects of Occupy Phoenix protest activity. While small glimpses into the governmental monitoring of the Occupy Wall Street movement have emerged in the past, there has not been any reporting -- until now -- that details the breadth and depth with which the nation's post-September 11, 2001 counter terrorism apparatus has been applied to politically engaged citizens exercising their Constitutionally-protected First Amendment rights.

"and they went apeshit to stop it just imagine what they will do when the people get mad or start to panic???"
Theres a reason they are passing all of this fucked up shit and getting ready to put 30k drones in the air, and it isnt because of some idiotic Dem vs Rep nonsense.
Some people are still stuck in the L vs R paradigm, while the rest of us are in the Us vs Them paradigm.
Thank goodness theirs is shrinking and ours is growing.
people need to realize that homeland security was never meant for them. it was always meant for us. they have a plan. and everything is going accordingly. 2012 prophecy wasn't wrong we just didn't get what it meant. now we do. there is a shift taking place between those awake and those who control who will win? my money is on them. people are weak and pathetic and don't know their own strength and there are few of us.
Our govt, msm and multinational corporations are totally controlled and OWNED by globalists. They have absolutely ZERO interest in our nation. They have and will continue to sell out the sovereign foundations of our society.
These "wars" in Afghanistan and Iraq are only experiments and exercises in population control. They are rolling out new hi-tech devices such as drones and surveillance and other new tech weapons. Testing their use in tactics against politically weak populations. Expect to see these newly learned population control methods coming to a town near you.
