you are going to have a very hard time finding a legitimate source of any FBI hit list. \nyour best bet is to research newspaper accounts of run-ins they had with the police, what tools they used to stop rallies, etc.\nalso, if you're willing to, you can check with local nursing homes to find some old activists and interview them.\nif you ask me, I think your topic is too broad; narrow it to a certain agency.

The FBI originated from a force of Special Agents created in 1908 by Attorney General Charles Bonaparte during the Presidency of Theodore Roosevelt. Roosevelt and Bonaparte both were "Progressives." They shared the conviction that efficiency and expertise, not political connections, should determine who could best serve in government. Theodore Roosevelt became President of the United States in 1901; four years later, he appointed Bonaparte to be Attorney General. In 1908, Bonaparte applied that Progressive philosophy to the Department of Justice by creating a corps of Special Agents. It had neither a name nor an officially designated leader other than the Attorney General. Yet, these former detectives and Secret Service men were the forerunners of the FBI.\n\nBy 1907, the Department of Justice most frequently called upon Secret Service "operatives" to conduct investigations. These men were well-trained, dedicated -- and expensive. Moreover, they reported not to the Attorney General, but to the Chief of the Secret Service. This situation frustrated Bonaparte, who wanted complete control of investigations under his jurisdiction. Congress provided the impetus for Bonaparte to acquire his own force. On May 27, 1908, it enacted a law preventing the Department of Justice from engaging Secret Service operatives.\n\nThe following month, Attorney General Bonaparte appointed a force of Special Agents within the Department of Justice. Accordingly, ten former Secret Service employees and a number of Department of Justice peonage (i.e., compulsory servitude) investigators became Special Agents of the Department of Justice. On July 26, 1908, Bonaparte ordered them to report to Chief Examiner Stanley W. Finch. This action is celebrated as the beginning of the FBI.

If you're describing the US police force and US Army,\n\nIt's through your discriminative ignorance!\n\nYou've obviously never been to other countries where the police have been known to be corrupt (siding with organized crime and the drug cartel) and where the Army will seize governmental power.\n\nI'm an naturalized citizen of the US.\nI lived in a country that was under martial law, so I KNOW what it's like NOT to have civil liberties.\n\nIf you have problems with the US I suggest that you take a visit to other countries.  If you like it there.  Then stay there!!!!\n\nThat's what is great about this country.\nYou don't like it??? Leave!\nDon't let the door hit you on the way out! *L*

It is not a violation of civil rights.  You'd propbably only be able to check to see once a warrant/ticket has been filed in court.  Check with your state's highest court, they should have a website with access to each county.\n\nwww.courts.state.va.us

The United States Government would not be able to train and hire that many FBI agents. There are over 300 million people in this country.\n\nAnd besides, we still have the 1st Amendment.

the FBI is involved with investigations of crimes.  Marshal Service tracks down fugitives, transports convicts, and provides security for the federal court system

If it's a civil rights issue, seek a referral from your local ACLU chapter...other matters, I'd need at least a vague idea of the issue before I could point you in any useful direction.

i just wish police officers themselves would respect the law.  in nyc they often shoot at poor inner city youth and generally violate civil rights.\n\nlay off the steroids boys in blue and get a copy of the constitution...when you learn how to read that should be on your summer list of good things to scrutinize.

It wouldn't matter to me if the FBI is doing just what you're asking about.  Expressing my opinion is far from showing intent.  I may hate things about the government and it is my right to say that I hate them.  But to get into trouble because I express opinions is a far cry from proving that I intend to do anything against it.  Let the FBI watch and moniter all it wants.  I answer questions and express attitudes everywhere with a clear conscience.

Police have always asked for more powers, but when these powers have been granted, they have been abused, and not used for the intended purpose.\nFor example, Anti-terrorism measures are more often used against peaceful protesters than suspected terrorists.\nThe founding fathers created a system of government primarily to protect the rights of themselves (the rich), but they realized that too much power in hands of the government could lead to a fascist police state.\nThe civil rights we have now were not given to us we had to fight for every one of them, now they are being taken away, but only as long as the people allow this to happen.\nThe government is very scared of the people, and justifiably so, it is only a matter of time till their clique is kicked out of office, and a more representative and participatory system of government is formed.

I do believe the police and FBI do these jobs.

here is an idea, how about you organize the people in your city to police themselves.\n\nIf you can stop the "blackmen" from doing things that make the police come to their area, then there could be no police "abuse"\n\nI live in a very diverse part of town, the only time I see a police officer is when I am driving past the police station, this is due to the fact that everybody in this area works, we pay our bills and raise our children, nobody beats their wives or children, nobody robs other people or steals from others, and nobody murders another.\nThere is no reason for the police to come to our area.\n\nThis may seem like a pollyanna sort of answer but it does work, life CAN be that easy. The only problem is, you have to get everybody on the same page, everybody has to want a better life for their family.

You should apply for the FBI.

It doesn't sound like you have a case. Police officers acting under color of law can't be held liable unless they violate your civil rights, and it doesn't sound like they did. They had a reasonable belief that there was a warrant for your arrest, as incorrect as that belief was.
