Guest guest Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Makes me wonder if this group is on the FBI's " terror watch " list?

Charles Rasner listed Indymedia, Food Not Bombs, and the Communist Party of Texas as " Terrorist Watch " cause groups in Austin.

For the most part, we are only posting what others have written and are available for all to read on the net anyway. I haven't seen any of those sources as " subversive " , but more of a difference of opinion. Is it now " subversive " to read something? And if so, are there now lists of approved reading materials and lists of disapproved reading materials? We share alternative health and medicine information. We share many other alternative news interests in other fields also. The main stream media is readily available to all of us also on most major media channels. Is it wrong to read alternatives too? Is there now only one way of thought and " no alternatives " ? Are we not the land of the free....to read and think? I have done nothing wrong and I will not be made to feel as though I have.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 My goodness, Frank. Of course you have not done anything wrong. But I'd be willing to bet that over 90% of the people on the FBI watch list have nothing wrong either. Remember what Pastor Martin Niemöller said in his poem about the nazis: They came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up.
