In glimpses and in glaring detail, the videotape images reveal the robust presence of disguised officers or others working with them at seven public gatherings since August 2004.

The officers hoist protest signs. They hold flowers with mourners. They ride in bicycle events. At the vigil for the cyclist, an officer in biking gear wore a button that said, "I am a shameless agitator." She also carried a camera and videotaped the roughly 15 people present.

Beyond collecting information, some of the undercover officers or their associates are seen on the tape having influence on events. At a demonstration last year during the Republican National Convention, the sham arrest of a man secretly working with the police led to a bruising confrontation between officers in riot gear and bystanders.

Until Sept. 11, the secret monitoring of events where people expressed their opinions was among the most tightly limited of police powers.

  • They did the same thing at Kent State.

    They do this at every rally to confuse the issues and cast protesters in negative light. A lighting rod to arrest and detain.

    Protests are only now a means of identifing the uncooperative.

  • this could be very bad with future peaceful protests.

see all

  • its funny how old people are controlling all of us with there pussy cops there are some good cops out there i know a few but allot of them are jerks and monsters

  • OMG, seriously? They wore police issued boots? :) Come on guys, you can be more creative than that!

  • @furyofbongos I was going to post this exact same response.Any arrest in the united states and it would have been a matter of public record of who was arrested.that and the fact that if one commits a "crime" while trying to hide their identity imposes stiffer penalties.So yes even though they were under cover "they"are the one's who should have actually been arrested for trying to incite a riot.

  • "Police declare war on Americans, they want to hurt, maim and kill citizens, by any means necessary," according to a CNN cable news report which aired today, based on the growing problem of police brutality against everyday law abiding citizens.

  • @LadyStonecut this sux we cant fight back because they would label us a terrorist or somthing else the people need to take drastic steps to insure the preservation of the peoples goverment not there goverment OUR goverment!

  • Because they would not reveal the 3 who were "arrested" which would be publicly available information, it proves that they were police agent provocateurs.

    Also, if the 3 were civilians, they would have been grabbed immediately and not after being allowed inside the police line for their safety.

  • well , this is and has been the normal for many years . its just that the some people are just now becoming aware of it. the whole game is manupilated and have been since the day u were born. just remember 1 thing, goverments are there to protect the big business. not the small man in the street.
