We Are Change 9/11 Activist Group Members Arrested At Replican Debate

Reporter Arrested on Orders of Giuliani Press Secretary
Charged with Criminal Trespass Despite Protest of CNN Staff and Official Event Press Credentials at GOP Debate in New Hampshire


Manchester, NH - Freelance reporter Matt Lepacek, reporting for Infowars.com, was arrested for asking a question to one of Giuliani's staff members in a press conference. The press secretary identified the New York based reporter as having previously asked Giuliani about his prior knowledge of WTC building collapses and ordered New Hampshire state police to arrest him.

Jason Bermas, reporting for Infowars and America: Freedom to Fascism, confirmed Lepacek had official CNN press credentials for the Republican debate. However, his camera was seized by staff members who shut off the camera, according to Luke Rudkowski, also a freelance Infowars reporter on the scene. He said police physically assaulted both reporters after Rudkowski objected that they were official members of the press and that nothing illegal had taken place. Police reportedly damaged the Infowars-owned camera in the process.

----- original opening post -----

I'm getting sketchy information that "We Are Change" activists attending the Republican debate have been arrested.

We seem to have confirmation that Luke Rudkowski and his camera man (Mike?) was arrested and taken into custody.

Jason Bermas of Loose Change was also reported to be in the same group, but we're not sure if he was arrested.


Does anyone have any additional information on this? The data I've been given indicates Luke was arrested simply because the "security team" recognized him.

Well... looks like freedom just ain't all that free anymore, eh?

I just took a look over at the "We are Change" website. There's nothing current, but I did find this amusing:
www.wearechange.org...

Live at the New Hampshire Republican Debates
WeAreChange is concluding our 3 day road trip to New Hampshire at the Republican Debates Tuesday June 5 starting at 4:30PM EST.

We will have live continual coverage throughout the debates and after.

Stay tuned to WeAreChange.org as we truth squad our way, taking back the Republic.

National Sovereignty Will Prevail

Um...
So much for that, eh?

Edit in reply to the video:

That's disgusting.
"Show me your documentation or I'll have you arrested", meaning if you are not an indoctrinated part of the mass-media information/perception-control engine you have no right to a voice.

Maybe he's right.
Bombing is a better form of communication than rational discussion.
That is what he's saying, isn't it?

SON OF A BITCH!!!!... I GODDAMN KNEW IT!!!

I do not know how many of you are aware of Arron Russo and his film America: Freedom to Fascism but he has started a group called AFTF and they finally got press credetials from CNN to be at tonites debate. AFTF, Arron Russo is a huge group of millions that support Ron Paul for president. DAMNIT I WARNED THEM ALL!!!

Anyways the groups media supervisor is a guy named Sam Errata and Sam announced that they would be going to the spin room on my space and on the groups forums and threads as well as email posts. Good news actually right? WRONG, 22 minutes before the debate started an email went out announcing the PROUD AFFILIATION of AFTF with LooseChange and WeAreChange and that they would be using their cameramen.

I immediately notified all the TAX movements and the Colorado chapter of AFTF to demand the firing of Sam Errata as media director of the National and to inform Arron Russo to fire him, Arron is in Germany getting cancer treatment and I do ot think was behind this affiliation at the last minute. I also notified Ron Paul's staff to release a press release denouncing any links to AFTF, due to the fact that we have been keeping Ron Paul out of any links to any 911 truth movement groups so the majors couldnt call him nuts and link him to people like the Urantians and other fringe 911 groups through association.

GODDAMNIT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT... WE HAVE TO GET RON PAUL OUT OF ANY LINK OR AFFILIATION O AFTF IMMEDIATELY OR ITS OVER FOR HIM AND AMERICA. I can attest fr a fact that those people were there and had press credentials but not because Arron Russo or the national AFTF wanted them there but because some BASTARD named Sam Errata brought them in 22 minutes before the debate, he told us, THAT SOB!!!!

This better not be linked to Ron Paul, OK OK a little background. Arron Russo and Ron Paul are friends and Arron russo is trying to educate on Taxes and the Federal reserve, he has weekly teleconference calls, last thursday Ron Paul was on and he is on occasionaly and has links to AFTF, and that damn asshole has now kinked Ron Paul to Nutjobs getting arrested and apparently without Arron knowledge nor Ron Pals campaigns knowlegde. This stinks of inside smear and operation, SON OF A BITCH!!!

If anyone is interested in the emails and the Arron Russo gorups announcement 22 minutes before debate of the LooseChange and WeAreChange emails or information as well as my IMMEDIATE replies to all to get Ron Paul out of the link immediately emal me at curt.sigler@gmail.com and I can forward you all the emails and the MySpace announcement from Sam Errata.

I KNEW IT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT THOSE DIRTY SOB'S


The guys ame is Sam Etarro, my memory sucks.

Don't know what to say?

The words 'civil rights' comes to mind.

Freedom and democracy is so transparently absent in these days and times. I have my doubts about its begginings too, but I'd rather not go into it. I guess the communists weren't the only ones with a flawed system, we just lasted a little longer in the shadows.

Theres not enough oversight at the moment right when we need it. Feels like this runaway train of secrecy, unfair treatment, corruption and more has finally edged past the point of no return. This is not only happening in America. Bunch of greedy criminals.

It really pisses me off that certain people and groups that should lose their jobs for such actions are now protected. They'd probably get a friggin medal for furthering the cause of our corrupted leaders.

Hell tomorrow someone like Bush will probably make it legal for all politicians to snort coke all day long because they have to remain defiant against the terrorist threat.

The worst thing is that no one will care. Those that do will probably run into a lot of trouble and be condemned by the gen pop because their love their newly 'energetic' leaders. I just got an image in my head of a politician I won't name wiping the powder off his nose just as the cameras start rolling.

Makes me want to break something. Hey at least the free media forced to watch from three blocks away will be able to hear them easily as they jabber on like drug crazed maniacs. Oh, wait they already do...

Edit: Cleaned it up a little so I don't get locked up while they figure out that I'm not a friggin terrorist. At least its not any worse, I mean they could shoot first - oh wait, thats happened already hasn't it.

Ok after looking at the video footage that was posted of the questioning and "answering" you cannot just assume that the man was arrested. If he had the press pass as claimed by his comrade in the video there is no legal way he could be arrested even by backwards New Hampshire law. He was allowed a fair amount of time to pose questions to the fellow before he was taken out. There is a humongous difference between being detained and being arrested. And from the looks of the video it just seems he was just escorted out of the building. He had every right to pose the questions he did. But it just seemed a bit strange that no one else in the entire press group surrounding him were not also barraging him with questions, and we all know how "liberal" that the press is. And we also know how much like piranha the press are also. After sitting through a 3 hour debate would you want to be barraged w/ a bunch of questions that you have no idea about? Of course you wouldn't.
What we need to start doing is organizing a true group of "truthers" and actually get into the debate as opposed to the press corp. Have some people start asking real questions that can't be escaped, and have to be answered in front of the "real" media and the sheeple. And for all this freedom of the press b.s. have you people not been paying attention to history, freedom of not only the press but just about 9 other of the "bill of rights" are not "free" anymore at all. This is not the first example of this kind of scathing of a question. We at least have to be thankful that it's not like it was in the 19th century when if you did ask a hardball question like that they find you on your trek home and you just cease to exist. Thank God for the internet (even though, despite amazing sites like ATS, it is maybe "one" of the anti-Christ, lol).
Let us just hope they don't keep cock blocking Sen. Paul from the rest of the debates. He has, hands down, won every single one and the mainstream "media" continues to ignore him. But I digress just be happy that the footage is out already and not condemned to the "banned" list. And please let's grow P.A.L., it's an organization I am trying to get going (People for the American Liberation). Because if memory of "history" serves me correct there once was a time when such great men as George Washing and Thomas Jefferson were once labeled as traitors and let's just look at how we view them now.
