COINTELPRO doesn't scare me... you for groups with the stated intent to overthrow the duly elected government by violence and with any means possible, and you don't think you are going to to be targeted?

THese guys were criminals, and their groups were organized crime...

Particularly the ones who were undercover or informents for the COINTELPRO program, agents provocater who urged the more violent and vicious attacks. As a part of their cover, knowing they'd never be charged for them? Or as part of the continuing operation by the FBI and others to demonize various sets of national enemies and keep their inflated budgets and *special powers* intact.

hahaha.. so you are thinking it was the FBI informants who were driving these groups to plant bombs?

I suppose next you are going to suggest it was FBI informants who were calling for Sentors executions in John Kerry's anti war group....

The black panthers needed no incitement to violence, nor did the WU. They were willing to do it on their own accord, or did you not hear them speaking of their glory days and revolution by there own mouths? More than a few spoke of it with happy rememberance, and admit they would do it all again. That's not the response of someone who was incited to violence.

Someone who was incited to do something they would not have done on their own, usually shows remorse and regret, as the Bar owner and the heavier set guy clearly did.. recognizing that what they did in the reflection was wrong.. they don't go aroudn saying, I'd do it all again.

You decide overthrowing a duly elected government to instill your communist revolution don't get suprised that you are targeted by that government. Or to put it in terms even the naive and lacking common sense WU activists would have understood... you lay with dogs, wake up with fleas.

You paint a target on your chest, engage in violence and other subversion, you don't get to call yourself a victim when you find out the government's after you.
