I find it strange that this effer just admited to exactly what the “activist community” is saying that he did, which is to entrap people at the very least. This fits too well a historical pattern of the FBI and other “heroes” that spy on their own citizens and worse. Read some history Renee! Its full of spooks and g-men providing the justification needed for violence against labor and other activist genres. They need this so that the fascist police state lock down and beat down that they foisted on activists and just plain old residents of St. Paul can look justified. Use your bureau expense account to buy A People’s History of the United States sweetums.

When I was working with brandon in New Orleans he was violent, agressive, bragged about rolling around post katrina NOLA with a sawed off shotgun, and packed heat. I saw him get into several violent altercations personally and additionally witnessed him agressively berating volunteers at Common Ground including a nurse, an acupuncturist, and myself who worked 16+ hour days in the weeks after the 9th ward was reopened. Dont I’m not saying that the Texas 2 arnt getting what was coming. Anyone who is idiotic enough to make molotovs in the presence of others–whether of nor they were provoked–is just looking for trouble.
I’m guessing that Brandon got popped for some major crime and made a deal with the feds. Or he was working for them the whole time. I dont think the truth will come out fo a long time.

Taz, why don’t we wait until the full story is disclosed. I find it strange that activists who claim to denounce violence are decrying someone for trying to stop it.

“And yet, he was considered an important leader by these self same terrorist wanna-be’s right up until he snitched them off.”

Regardless, making a living by trying to get people to commit crimes and then turning them in when they do makes Darby a scummy little sleazebag.

“Darby has been characterized by many people who have known and worked with him as both persuasive and manipulative, with a history of provocation, instigation, and incitement.”

And yet, he was considered an important leader by these self same terrorist wanna-be’s right up until he snitched them off.

Me thinks these idiots doth protest too much!
