Conservative activist James O’Keefe accused of trying to goad protesters to ‘kill some cops’

Source: Raw Story

A former employee says conservative activist James O’Keefe tried to instigate anti-police sentiment among protesters through the use of a mole, the New York Post reported.

The former director of operations for Project Veritas, Richard Valdes, said O’Keefe planned to send an unidentified Muslim man working for him to infiltrate a group of demonstrators in January. Neither the protest he was supposed to join nor the location have been identified.

The man was also allegedly given a script to recite at meetings, in which he would say, “Sometimes, I wish I could just kill some of these cops. Don’t you just wish we could have one of the cops right here in the middle of our group?”

However, the man reportedly emailed both Valdes and O’Keefe that month and refused the assignment.

He and Zimmerman should go into business together, or maybe consider running for office.

His way of inciting violence is to try to "trick" people into committing crimes and getting hurt for their trouble. How dirty can someone get?

Incredible people-hating going on inside his fetid little frame.

If there is a paper trail of this connected to O'Keefe he just might have gone too far this time.

inciting someone to murder with free speech is beyond all logic.

Is your brain a pretzel?

So, in your convoluted thinking it would be just "free speech" if someone helped incite someone to murder you...


I'm gobsmacked, if so.

I apologize. I took it that you thought plotting murder was equated with "free speech", so therefore not illegal.

From Wikipedia: "In criminal law, a conspiracy is an agreement between two or more persons to commit a crime at some time in the future."

saying 'kill the cops' - not to mention all the RW propaganda sites that posted it.

It most definitely is conspiracy to incite violence, murder.

They had operatives who joined and then began urging VVAW to embrace violence as a means of protest.

The last I heard, at the time of his arraignment, he still didn't have a lawyer. That means his admission was obtained without aid of counsel. A lot of things really smell about this case. This is just another reason to remain skeptical.

And its corollary - NEVER underestimate the naiveté of our purported good-guys.

They didn't bother to read the sneaky-ass shit the GOP attempted to sneak into that human trafficking bill, either. Probably just assumed everything was somehow "on the level."

DAYUM!!!!!! You do that with opponents like these and you WILL get rolled. EVERY TIME. Just keep on trusting that ol' scorpion that needs you to swim him across the river on your back. And prepare to be stung to death in the middle of the deep water.

I don't know WHY our side hasn't learned this by now!!! The opposition MUST NEVER be trusted. NOT EVER!!!!

Perhaps he was the mastermind behind the two NYPD Officer's gunned down recently?

Or perhaps he was the mastermind behind the shooting of the Officers in Ferguson recently?

That is what I think every time I hear about movements getting infiltrated with moles who try to incite violence. Once they get violence into the mix, they end the movement, which is exactly what they wanted to do. Usually, they will get greedy and try to take out strong voices on the left while they are at it too. And even if they are caught red handed doing all this, people like me who pointed out their MO, will get called CT and they will get by with it, again.
