DHS officials shared and coordinated strategies (crackdown to evict Occupy protests)

9. That is very true. It shows that people like MLK and Gandhi were correct, peaceful

protesting, non-violence, is far more threatening to them than violent protests.

Reading the documents, seeing the extent to which the DHS goes to watch OWS, shows how concerned they are about the truth being told about Wall St.

This country's history of supporting Right Wing dictators and backing coups against left leaning democratically elected leaders is shameful. But I don't think most Americans were or are aware of how we so often support the bad guys, yet. It certainly isn't taught in our schools.

If, eg, we really were a democracy, OWS would have been protected and welcomed, certainly by Democrats at least. Instead it was viewed as the 'enemy' to the point of using the Department of Homeland Security, set up we are told, to protect us from terrorists, to monitor them. If that doesn't demonstrate where this country is, nothing does.
