I hope the current FBI sponsored “hate acts” against PNW anarchists by grand jury harassment and concurrent imprisonment as political prisoners is presented in astonishing honesty. This “feel goodery” presentation heralding the Police State seems to trivialize “human rights” and “due process”. Should your political ideology serve to incriminate you?
