Free Republic and Daily Cal Want War with Anti-Capitalists

Please remember that COINTELPRO was a successful disruption strategy which was encouraged (and directly committed) by the United States Government, Berkeley police, Oakland police, San Francisco police, California state authorities. Please remember that the jury is currently out on the Judi Bari trial, where startling revelations about the extent of political monitoring conducted by OPD were revealed.

For more information on COINTELPRO, please see:

In the interest of open, public security culture, I am posting this information here for public discussion and public archiving.

1. People using the name of SmashTheLeft and JoJo Gunn have been making a concerted effort to disrupt this website:

5. The above information was submitted by Rory Miller, who currently lives at UC-Berkeley but is probably spending time at his parents' house near Sacramento, in lieu of getting a job and supporting himself. More information about Rory Miller can be found here:

6. Rory Miller will be re-locating to Los Angeles soon to attend UCLA's law school.

7. The Free Republic website is operated from Fresno by Jim Robinson. His phone number is publicly available on the internet.

These individuals acting on their own can have the same effects of a government-sponsored cointelpro program. We should recognize the problem publicly. We should discuss hypothetical solutions. We should not publicly discuss specific solutions.
