| Thanks for watching! | |
| Urban Outfitters has been forced to apologize for what some are calling an exploration in tastelessness. | |
| The retailer attempted to sell a vintage Kent State University sweater, complete with tattered edges and red blood-like stains, offering a loose, slouchy fit for those who wish to trivialize the loss of life. | |
| In 1970, students across the U.S. | |
| were protesting Nixon's widening of the Vietnam War into Cambodia. | |
| Nixon sent the National Guard restore order to the Kent State campus. On May 4th, 1970, | |
| four people were killed and nine wounded when the National Guard opened fire on student | |
| protesters, firing 67 rounds over a period of 13 seconds. Witnesses couldn't believe | |
| that the guardsmen weren't shooting blanks. Many guardsmen later testified that they were in | |
| fear for their lives, which was questioned because of the distance between them and the | |
| students that were killed or wounded. And Time Magazine later concluded that triggers | |
| weren't pulled accidentally at Kent State. Now, store officials insist that they never | |
| intended to allude to the tragic events of the Kent State massacre, and they promptly | |
| removed it from their website to avoid further upset. Urban Outfitters' offensive deal | |
| serves as a reminder that protesters are still enemy number one to the state. When protesters | |
| took to the streets of Ferguson, Missouri last month to protest the shooting of unarmed teen | |
| Michael Brown by a police officer, Ferguson PD rolled out the big guns. | |
| Literally. | |
| While protesters held signs and chanted, hands up, don't shoot, the PD moved in with MRAPs and fired upon protesters and reporters alike with a barrage of tear gas, rubber bullets, wooden bullets, flashbang grenades, and sound cannons All in an effort to stifle the First Amendment rights of those who were fed up with an abuse of authority. | |
| Tear gas, which is barred from use during war, but apparently it's completely perfect to use on demonstrators here in America. | |
| When police fired tear gas on protesters in Oakland, California, during the Occupy Wall | |
| Street protests, peaceful protester and two-time Iraq War veteran Scott Olson sustained a skull | |
| fracture from a police projectile. | |
| And after this cop was filmed discharging pepper spray at a line of seated demonstrators | |
| at UC Davis, former officer John Pike won more than $38,000 in a workers' comp case | |
| against the school, claiming he suffered anxiety and depression after video outrage. | |
| The FBI even planned to assassinate the leaders of the Occupy movement via suppressed sniper | |
| This was according to an FBI document obtained by the Partnership for Civil Justice Fund via FOIA request. | |
| Now, although the document is redacted, it clearly shows that the FBI planned to gather intelligence against the leaders of the protest groups, then formulate a plan to kill the leadership via suppressed sniper rifles. | |
| News of an FBI plot to murder political activists doesn't come as a surprise to those who are familiar with COINTELPRO. | |
| The FBI's COINTELPRO program of the 1960s and 70s aimed to frighten dissidents and disrupt their movements, enabling the FBI and police to eliminate the leaders of mass movements without undermining the image of the United States as a democracy. | |
| Now, according to the official narrative, COINTELPRO was terminated in 1971. | |
| But that is clearly not the case. | |
| For years, the government has been using anti-terror laws to crush dissent. | |
| NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden wrote about the NSA's spying programs, saying, They're about economic spying, social control, and diplomatic manipulation. | |
| They're about power. | |
| Attorney General Eric Holder announced Monday another spying program that he claims is aimed at fostering community and local outreach efforts to combat the message of extremist groups such as ISIS. | |
| But we know this isn't about ISIS. | |
| Exclusive photographs provided to InfoWars earlier this month from a local business owner | |
| show an FBI PowerPoint presentation placing homegrown groups at the top of the agency's | |
| terror watch list. | |
| NSK SLA News 12 Jeff Ferrell discovered the clergy would help the government with potentially | |
| their biggest problem, us. | |
| For the clergy, one of the biggest tools that they will have in helping calm the public | |
| down or obey the law is the Bible itself. | |
| Specifically, Romans. | |
| Romans 13. | |
| By conflating political dissidence with terrorism, local, state, and federal law enforcement can pursue activists simply for challenging government policy. |
