Puppet maker falsely accused of being terrorist

How out of control was the illegal mid-decade pogrom by the Maryland Police State Police to spy on dissidents?

Police falsely accused 53 people of being terrorists and entered them into a terrorism database. Among them are 2 nuns, a Democratic congressional candidate, and a puppet maker.

You can't make this stuff up, folks. The file for one of the 53 victims of this illegal investigation complained that she was "involved in puppet making."

Ooh, puppet making! Heaven forbid!

If Wayland Flowers was alive today, would they put him on a terror watch list too?

The files lie outright. One woman was added to the list just for supposedly attending a conference in Washington, D.C. However, she was actually at an unrelated event in Hawaii while that conference was going on.

The right-wing regime that ruled Maryland at the time wasn't even competent at being undercover. One organization that was infiltrated found it suspicious that a woman kept bringing her laptop to meetings. The woman turned out to be an undercover cop.

I always thought undercover police were supposed to blend in as much as possible and not look suspicious. So that's yet another mistake they've made.

Shockingly, the Maryland Police State Police have not disciplined any officers involved in the illegal spying program.

For right-wing former Gov. Bob Ehrlich and those in the department who led this program, the penalty should be severe. I'm in favor of prison reform, but those who led the spying program should face exile or a long sentence in a medieval-style prison. They have evil in their hearts, and they transgressed not only against 53 puppet makers and nuns but against all Americans.

If Bob Ehrlich barged into my house right now (like he did in Maryland tourism commercials), I'd have no objection to asking him right to his scuzzy face, "Why do you hate America?"
