FBI questions boy over Ron Paul video [on Drudge]

[green73]

In another shocking example of how the federal government is repositioning itself as a secret police force to target political dissidents, a 16-year-old boy was questioned by FBI agents over a You Tube video he created for a school project which highlighted how America was slipping into a police state.

The video clip above, which promotes the presidential campaign of Congressman Ron Paul, was put together by Justin Hallman as part of a project for his American Government class. The video helped earn Hallman an A+ pass and his teacher enthused about how impressed he was with Hallman’s efforts.

The video touches on a number of issues, including the National Defense Authorization Act, evidence suggesting the Republican caucus in Maine was fixed to disenfranchise Ron Paul, the hacktivist group Anonymous, military drills taking place in American cities, as well as eviscerations of the right to free speech.

About a month later, Hallman was shocked to receive a knock on the door of his family’s home from two FBI agents, including Special Agent Matthew Bowman. Hallman provided us with images of Bowman’s FBI card which he left at the property when Hallman decided not to answer the door.

When Hallman’s mother called the number on the card she was told by Bowman, “We need to talk to your son.”

Fucking sickening. That poor kid must have been shitting a brick.

 

[tod evans]

Smart kid not answering the door.

It's going to come to a head..........

 

[TheGrinch]

Sometimes I think they just do crap like this to get as mad enough to do something stupid.

Either way, it is indeed sickening that that video got a high school kid a visit from the FBI. Dissent truly isn't allowed anymore in this country.

Seriously? We spend umpteen billions on state of the art law enforcement, and their best plan for infiltrating Anonymous is recruiting a high school kid off You Tube.

A kid who loves Ron Paul, even.

No wonder they shoot dogs. They're trying to eliminate the intellectual competition.

 

[Bruno]

Smart kid.

FBI: "Why were you talking about the Illuminati?"

My question: "Why do you care if they don't exist and aren't anything to worry about?"

 

[TonySutton]

I think the young man's representative in Congress or Senator needs to ask the FBI why they are harassing US citizens and wasting tax payer money!

Because people who question authority and our loss of liberties are suspected terrorists and should be actively recruited to catch other supposed terrorists?

on DRUDGE: 16 year old questioned by FBI about Ron Paul video he made

Full title on Drudge:

16-Year-Old Questioned by FBI Over Pro-Ron Paul YOUTUBE Video...

My guess, if I had to hazard one, is the clip from Anonymous in the middle is at the heart of the issue. Though at this point in this country, who knows. Also, the FBI knew a LOT about his conversation with his teacher (Illuminati is a terrorist organization, what???)

Does anyone know what that clip is of a guy in a backpack being bagged by US military? When/where? Background?

 

[sailingaway]

already posted

my understanding of the guy in the back pack was that he was taken during the G8 summit in Chicago, but that is from a response to post by the maker of another video medley, and I just saw it on youtube.

 

[KingNothing]

This kid rules.

 

[Mr. Perfidy]

wow that is an awesome video! what the fuck about it could have anyone on alert? Because it's good? lol

"Kid- we look the other way when dullards regurgitate half-assed shit, but this has real production value. It's dramatic, its suspenseful, and you build the tension so successfully. Come with us."

they probably offered a job for Romney lol

i wonder when i get my turn with the door knock.....

Your right it's not a question "IF" ... it's a question of "WHEN".

 

[wgadget]

Damn..Not even of voting age...

 

[QueenB4Liberty]

I'm sure someone in his class reported him.

 

[The Free Hornet]

I'm sure someone in his class reported him.

Maybe near the front of the class:

The fact that the FBI men knew about Hallman’s conversation with his teacher clearly suggests that it was the teacher or another official at the school who reported Hallman to the FBI in the first place.
