Apparently my private FRmail to you isn't working.

Kindly remove me from your ping lists.

Thanks.

How do the Feebies intimidate the local police into pressing bogus charges?

"You want access to our training facilities? You want timely access to NCIC data? Use of our crime lab? Want us to continue running background checks/fingerprint checks for you? Then you WILL help us out, Chief. Nudge-nudge, wink-wink"

Perhaps crime lab management needs to be tranferred to a different government agency.

A large part of the problem, imho, is that the feds conterol some large purse strings, money which many local agencies have come to rely on - any threat to withhold that money woul dbe enough to make even the most stubborn LEA cooperate with the feds in any way the feds require.

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not slamming anyone - just stating facts as I see them...

Went out and bought a copy of The Man Who Fell to Earth.
Thanks for the recommendation. What about it interested you?

[NativeNewYorker]

I think you're confusing me with someone else. I don't recall reading or recommending it.

Hang out in predominately muslim areas pointing out the FBI car to all your new friends in the mosque...hehe.

That's the ticket, THEN have your buddies snap pictures of the agents & vehicles with their islamic friends and email them to overseas saudi embassies.

BTW; I commend you on the fine job you're doing with your "ProjectHatfill".

Is it having the desired effect?

I am putting this on the forum, as you fail to acknowledge FRmail. You have me confused with someone else. I don't know who and I don't know why. I would like you to delete from your ping lists. I am asking nicely.

[Princeton]

I have no ping list.

[NativeNewYorker]

Please cease "pinging" me on anthrax threads.

I asked you to do this starting on August 2nd.

The accident occurred May 17 as Hatfill ran errands with his girlfriend. He noticed he was being followed by a green sport utility vehicle, parked his car in Washington's busy Georgetown neighborhood and got out to take photos of the SUV....Hatfill wanted pictures to document the harassment. Hatfill was struck and knocked down as the SUV drove off ...The police officer who testified at the hearing said he didn't see the accident, but viewed videotape footage taken by the FBI agent driving the SUV. After that, Officer Clyde Pringle said he decided to give Hatfill a ticket for ``walking to create a hazard.''
***************

Surveillance cameras in a government agent's vehicle point forward, in order to document the actions of his target as seen through the driver's windshield. For an on-foot, walking Hatfill to be seen by the agent's camera, Hatfill would have had to be in front of the FBI agent's SUV.

That FBI guy would have had to stop his vehicle when Hatfill stopped his car, in order to see what his target was up to. When Hatfill stepped in front of the SUV and started taking pictures, the FBI man purposely drove his vehicle towards Hatfill, trying to make Hatfill back off.

In his attempt avoid the camera, the FBI man hit the man he was supposed to be tailing, and knocked that man to the ground.

It was not an accident, it was a deliberate "assault with a deadly weapon," the agent's SUV; and then the agent committed a separate violation of law, leaving the scene of the crime.

All that was documented by the FBI agent's own camera, but those little facts were ignored by Officer Clyde Pringle when he ticketed Hatfill.

Check this out, Luis.

Just email them to the State Department. Same thing.

My favorite bad guy of all time.

The FBI agent could have driven up to Hatfill and shot him in the head and gotten away without punishment. It has happened more than once already to others.
