FBI TARGETING AMERICANS

The same FBI that failed to act on suspicions that Islamic radicals were trying to learn how to fly -- but not take off or land -- jumbo jets is now targeting Americans bent on exercising their Consitutional right to free speech.

Agents have subpoenaed political activists in Kansas and Missouri in the days and weeks before the Democratic National Convention.

Intimidation and other actions that violate the spirit of democracy, the First Amendment right to "peaceably assemble" to redress grievances, are the last refuge of an illegal government and an administration that values winning above American ideals.
