Im sorry piggy, but the only thing trumped up are your lies and bails. :)  <br><br> They are also implementing the same tactic on the LA IMC site by pretending to be various civilians and saying how they will fight us and how they support the LAPD beating us. They are trying to create a flase public sentiment for themselves. They are also claiming we want to burn there city and are all thugs. This government flood of flase info is rather annoying to say the least. <br><br> We get enough of these lies in the corporate media, the IMC is the only voice of the people. I hope the IMC's take steps to try and prevent this in some way, because this is where we come to here the REAL news, not the lies.

That's just resorting to the corporate method.    Piggy articles and dis-information are pretty easy to spot, and even easier to ignore.  For instance, the dummy who keeps posting about murdering the disfigured.  It may make some angry, but only a sub-dolt would believe it.  \r\n\r\nThey're just trying to get our goat or get a feel for our mood so they can continue thier FBI counter-insurgency methods more efficiently.  What can they really do? Hire Rush Limbaugh to try to annoy us?  convince us all to join the army?\r\n\r\nI think it would be best if the IMC made this systems so it would be completly un-censorable.  That way, even when the FBI infiltrates the IMC, the agent would never be able to censor anything.\r\n","author":"Silly Rabbit - Snohomish","parent_id":319,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2000-05-10 19:06:39","modified":"2019-10-28 23:12:27","fileurl":""},{"id":328,"heading":"Eh?","article":"How  about  making it so you have to register in order to post news?

I hate registering to post a message,  I think the IMC has it set up just right.  Registering will only make it harder for the general public to post.  I know I wouldn't post if there was some register thing.  I'd probably stop reading it to.\r\n\r\nAnyway, the pigs would probably love it if we all registered to post messages here.\r\n\r\nIf a cop has been assigned the job of posting messages, he'll do it anyway.  If he's doing it on his own free time, he'll probably do it anyways.  I support they're right to hold an opinion anyway.  I don't support the shutting out of anyone, for any reason.  Many people arn't total idiots, and don't believe everything they read.  We don't need any CENSORSHIP or stupid RULES to slow us down.\r\n\r\nCops, believe it or not, are forms of human beings too.  Respect thier right to babble nonsense, it only strengthens us anyway.  CENSORSHIP AND RULES SUCK BUTT!
