AMERICA, AMERICA GOD SHED HIS LIGHT ON THEE! AND CROWN THY GOOD WITH BROTHERHOOD FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA! http://www.niehs.nih.gov/kids/lyrics/america.htm

From: Matt Howes, National Internet Organizer, ACLU To: ACLU Action Network Members Date: December 2, 2003

A confidential FBI memo confirms that the federal government is targeting innocent Americans engaged in nothing more than lawful protest and dissent.

In the memo the FBI advocates spying on peaceful protesters and indicates that protesters who engage in civil disobedience or other disruptive acts should be treated like potential terrorists. It confirms that the government has monitored the actions of peaceful protestors and wants intelligence about protestors to be reported to the nearest FBI field office or terrorism task force.

Peaceful protestors should not be treated as potential terrorists nor spied upon by federal government agents. Not only is this a misuse of public funds that could be used to find real terrorists, it chills free speech activities and inhibits the public debate on important issues.

Take Action! Let Attorney General Ashcroft know that you oppose government surveillance of peaceful protests.
