October 25, 2006 -- FBI trains its own civilian "Stasi" force. Across the United States, private citizens have been deputized to "assist" the FBI in counter-terrorism and counter-intelligence activities. They are graduates of the little-known FBI Citizens Academies, 25 training academies across the United States that have trained citizens in firearms use, collection and preservation of physical evidence, FBI organization, communications, counter-intelligence operations, and drug enforcement. Participants in the program must obtain a security clearance, be a recognized business, civic, religious, or community leader, be 21 years of age with no prior felony conviction, and live or work within the jurisdiction of a participating FBI field office. FBI civilian academy graduates work closely with state and local police. Started in 1993 at the Phoenix Field Office, FBI Citizens Academies now exist in Albany (NY), Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbia (SC), Dallas, Denver, Honolulu, Jacksonville, Kansas City, Little Rock, Memphis, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Newark (NJ), Omaha, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Portland (OR), St. Louis, and Washington, D.C.
The FBI is looking for a few good snitches. FBI Citizens Academies train their students in the use of the following weapons: 357 Magnum Smith and Wesson revolver; Glock model 22; MP-5 10mm; the U.S. military standard .223 M4 carbine; Glock Model 23; Glock Model 27; and the 12-gauge Remington shotgun. *** "The Gestapo gathered much of its information from private citizens. Even children were taught to report on their parents. The Gestapo's main sources, however, were Nazi party officials who constantly monitored the activities of all citizens [and] used such information to track political opponents." -- Plaque in the "Propaganda Section" of the Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC Complete archives at http://www.sitbot.net/ Please let us stay on topic and be civil.
