Inside the Military-Police Center That Spies On Baltimore's Rioters

Posted by timothy on from the cynics-were-optimists dept.

Lasrick writes: Adam Weinstein on a program designed to catch terrorists attacking Baltimore that is now being used to spy on protesters: 'On Ambassador Road, just off I-695 around the corner from the FBI, nearly 100 employees sit in a high-tech suite and wait for terrorists to attack Baltimore. They've waited 11 years. But they still have plenty of work to do, like using the intel community's toys to target this week's street protests.' Great read.

    Property? They probably caused a few hundred thousand dollars in damages; I think 9/11 clocked in at around... oh you know, maybe fifty billion. No biggie.

    Life? Zero people are dead because of these riots. Wish I could say the same was true for people killed by cops. Or on 9/11.
