Surprise, Homeland Security Coordinates #OWS Crackdowns

Not really a surprise, but eh.

Surprise, Homeland Security Coordinates #OWS Crackdowns

Remember when people were freaking out over the Patriot Act and Homeland Security and all this other conveniently ready-to-go post-9/11 police state stuff, because it would obviously be just a matter of time before the whole apparatus was turned against non-Muslim Americans when they started getting complain-y about the social injustice and economic injustice and income inequality and endless recession and permanent unemployment? That day is now, and has been for some time. But it’s also now confirmed that it’s now, as some Justice Department official screwed up and admitted that the Department of Homeland Security coordinated the riot-cop raids on a dozen major #Occupy Wall Street demonstration camps nationwide yesterday and today. (Oh, and tonight, too: Seattle is being busted up by the riot cops right now, so be careful out there.)

Surprised? Then you've been asleep and believed the propaganda. The police state was always aimed at you when you would wake up that the whole thing was a scam and the elite was actively trying to steal everything.

So, according to the Patriot Act, these protestors are terrorists and may be able to be held in detention indefinitely with no hope of a trial? Would they actually try this? I realize that they wouldn't do this with all of the protestors, but some of them may fall into the home grown variety according to the Big Sis Brigade.
