    Don’t expect an agency like that to have changed since they murdered Civil rights leaders.

    see: Fred Hampton

    In 1967, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) identified Hampton as a radical threat…In December 1969, Hampton was drugged, then shot and killed in his bed during a predawn raid at his Chicago apartment by a tactical unit of the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office, who received aid from the Chicago Police Department and the FBI leading up to the attack.
