Why are you repeating everything I've said?
Used to be you could talk to any city/county/state/contract worker provided they spoke English and even if they didn't you could plod along and communicate. People were open about what they were doing because there was no reason not to be. I certainly never heard of a city/county/state/contract worker calling the police because they were asked a question. There are plenty of situations where employees are instructed not to answer a reporter's questions and are told to refer all inquiries to (fill in the name & number.) No one calls the police unless there's a crime.
We Americans are SICK AND TIRED of TSA and (note carefully)> TSA-LIKE tyrrany in this country. We have had it up to here. It's degrading, and from every which way you turn in society, is this Orwellian nightmare of tyrrany. Americans are sick and tired of it.

Yep - it's getting pretty bad.
But as you obviosuly realise and others don't, it is a symptom of your society being litigious and just a little bit looney, and getting worse
I have a sister in the US - if it wasn't for the good pay she'd be out of there like a shot - as it is her & her husband are forever looking for jobs "overseas" t oget away from the lunacy, but they are specialists & not so many places where they can both get a job close to each other....edit on 24-8-2011 by Aloysius the Gaul because: (no reason given)
The debunking team on here refuses to grasp that, my problem with the situation in the videos is authoritarian tyrrany, in the form of calling the cops just for asking -legitimate- questions. Over weed whatsh**?

Also use to be you didn't have lawyers filling the airwaves with commercials, trying to draw in clients looking for any excuse to sue somebody. Think about it... Do you think they're going to say... "Hey, how ya doin'... Oh yeah, we're just driving down the road spraying this weed killer all over the place. Make sure you take some good deep breaths in, then go straight home and call Larry H Parker". Come on.

Then why are they obviously wasting all of their super-secret, and presumably super-expensive chemicals on those poor roadside weeds?
So they forged documents and trumped up some uniforms so they could bring their state sponsored progrom of death down on those innocent weeds?
Would you guys stop it?
If you look closely you will see that it is, indeed, a government, Dept. of Transportation vehicle. They just happen to be using an FMC rig and probably have a contract.

I wasn't actually able to hear the guy say Roundup in the video. Roundup doesn't have a lot of market share or even a market left anymore. I think it's up to some 22 states that now have super weeds completely resistant to Roundup. Also the Chinese made a designer Roundup that they sold for alot less and took alot of the market away from Monsanto. Strange that Rhode Island would still be using Roundup when cheaper has been available and super weeds that nothing can kill are the result and there are currently budget restraints.
Also, uniforms are cheap and work orders can be laser printer forged and unless this spraying is defense or national security classified, there should have been a community advisory. The city or county or state via council men and women would have approved the funding for this and they answer to their respective constituents that elected them.
In years passed I recall mailings, door to door advisories, news bulletins etc. etc. prior to any spraying with the usual blah blah of how safe and what precautions to take i.e. pets indoors etc. etc. But hey, as Americans, what we really need is more secret stuff going on with veiled threats of arrest for even asking.edit on 24-8-2011 by luxordelphi because: correct spelling constituents and one etc.
