Has anyone read the article about the FBI and the Oakland Police Dept being judged against in the Judi Bari and Darryl Cherney trial?
She was the woman who belonged to Earth First who supposedly blew herself up.
Turns out, the FBI was trying to frame her and the Earth First organization. Cost them to the tune of 4.4 million.
I want all of you to keep this in mind while we give away our freedoms to an agency that has far from a stellar record in regards to really protecting the American people.

I have a hunch Dunadan is making this up. Who could believe our government would violate someone's free speech rights, perform an unlawful search and falsely arrest them all because they oppose the legitimate industry practice of raping the environment for a buck?

Innocent Till Proven Guilty...YEAH RIGHT
When it comes to law enforcement, the truth is we're guilty till we prove ourselves innocent.

OJ never proved himself innocent and Earth First is a terrorist group.

Wow. What a victory. It doesn't surprise me that certain yahoos in the FBI and other government agencies act like this, violating people's rights nilly willy. Unfortunately after Sept. 11, the Bush administration thinks our constitutional rights are superfulous. At least this verdict will send a message and maybe chill a few yahoos.

Thanks ped and steve. I was able to find those using Google but was hoping for something from a mainstream media source.

I saw the article in the paper a few weeks ago Viol Man.

The one thing that the main stream sources did that these didn't was that they quoted people as saying that no one proved that Earth First people didn't set the bomb.. all they proved was that their rights were violated and that no law enforcement people took a serious look at the possibility that Earth First was a victim of the bombing.

Violin, you might try the SF Chronicle web site for this. I'm sorry for not giving a link, (what's a link?), but my brother ridiculed me for sending him the article, saying that he had read about it weeks ago.

Thankyou, fiddle-boy.
I wish the FBI would desist from assuming that they are above the law. Let's stop the so-called Patriot Act before it's too late.
BTW, did you read about Serpico warning the American people about losing their civil rights? I read it on Prodigy.
