The FBI has a department called SOMEX. The Social Media exploitation team. It was originally established to track people on social media who make death threats, pose an imminent danger, etc. Some of the J6 protesters were found by SOMEX thru social media.In my opinion chanting "death to America" is not considered freedom of speech, that my friends is a threat! I remember the comparison in school that if you yelled "fire" in a crowded theater was not consider or protected under the 1st Amendment. I believe the same applies to "Death to America". Maybe I'm wrong.
Also, if we don't believe that we are being measured with a different yard stick, well you need to come out more. The 6 Jan is an unfortunate event, and whomever we want to blame it happened, and those who participated are being punished. However, the riots that happened throughout the US, the buildings burned, the monuments destroyed, the cops who got hurt or killed. Where are those rioters now? We don't hear about them, because that is ok, and they are probably getting ready for next riots.
For the sake of argument, Trump is to blame for the Jan 6 events. Ok, fine, I will not argue that. How about all those other politicians from the left who instigated the riots, why they are not being prosecuted? Maxine Waters calling "we need to get more confrontational". Those supporting Black Lives Matter. Why are they running around freely?
The double standards are in front of our noses, and we fail to see them.
There is also a team of FBI field agents who will knock on your door if you happened to be flagged
I read a story recently of a pro palestine woman who made social media comments stating that the Israelis should be exterminated or some such. She was paid a visit by the FBI. They had no warrant, but wanted to speak with her.
Its a job they do all day, every day.
Big brother is watching
Since 2016, I have lost all respect for the FBI. They are now a federal gang of thugs controlled by a corrupt headmaster in the DOJ.
I'll wait for the knock on my door......lol
