Domestic terrorism

mercredi 13 janvier 2021 à 01:00

New "domestic terrorism" legislation would be very effective for crushing Black Lives Matter and other progressive causes.

Some Republican-controlled state legislatures have started planning new laws to repress protest, supposedly to be used against domestic terrorists but actually to be used against protesters against pollution and abusive businesses.

There is a push to increase the PAT RIOT Act surveillance powers.

No special surveillance facility was needed to see that fanatics were talking about attacking the Capitol. What was missing was the willingness to take their threat seriously.

Does anyone know what ultimately happened to the felony charges, mentioned in one of those articles, against the "J20" activists for being near where property damage was committed?
