Reply #49: Operation FALCON, brainchild of Gonzo... [View All]

[AntiFascist]

Here is an interesting article about Operation FALCON, which was supposed to be the brainchild of Alberto Gonzales, it stands for "Federal and Local Cops Organized Nationally" and is intended as a way of "streamlining the information-sharing processes and setting up a chain-of-command structure that radiates from the Justice Department."

Also, “all forms of public gatherings or citizen's protests which question the legitimacy of the emergency procedures and the installation of a police state” would be banned. The military would be deployed to carry out “police and judicial” functions.

I wonder if the data-mining operations relate to this? In other words, conveying information to local authorities about who is likely to become a protestor of the new police state?
