[Fred Mertz]

The FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility reached an ``extremely troubling'' conclusion in 1997 when it announced that no evidence existed showing informants James ``Whitey'' Bulger and Stephen Flemmi had been protected from prosecution.

Why do these people 'trust' the FBI to investigate the FBI?

[Kenny Bunk]

The FBI (False, Brazen, Inept) has spent years making itself a perfect match for the dumber members of the "Soprano" family, mainly through subornation of perjury and the protection of "informants.".

While they run down equally inept and aging "family" members, The Russian Mob, The Colombians, al-Quaida. the KGB, and Cuba's DGI ran rings around them time after time. Remember, this is the same FBI that turned down the Walker Spy Ring's evidence 3 times in 6 years. This is the same FBI upon whom the KGB planted innumerable phony "defectors." The best you can say right now about the FBI is that they are more respectable in appearance than the BATF.

They have to get out of the more fanciful aspects of international and undercover work, at which they have displayed incredible incompetence in major cases, and concentrate on being super cops, at which they weren't too bad.
