Occupy Movement meets MKULTRA

This is amazing.  According to Alexander Higgins‘ latest blog post, police in Minnesota have been caught red-handed on camera, dosing teenagers with drugs and dropping them off at Occupy protests in order to discredit them.  Sounds like the counterpart to a popular technique of using agent provocateurs, but in this case instead of inciting violence or riots, they are dumbing down the crowd.

Quote from one of the “recruits” from the video above:

They didn’t give us a test, they didn’t test us this time… they just smoked us up this time. They gave me a bowl… gave us a whole bag of weed, and we smoked it all up.

This blog post is based on a report by Rogue Media

shocking stories of cops offering young people drugs and taken to a secret state-owned warehouse where vast amounts of drugs were consumed by the young test subjects under the watchful eyes of interested police. The activists also witnessed, in Minneapolis’ Peavey Plaza, “police dropping off impaired people” where Occupy Minneapolis congregates.

Apparently, the State Patrol has specialists in the DRE program (Drug Recognition Experts) which find drug users, observe them, and even dose them with more drugs (after signing a waiver, of course!).  This entire story seems unbelievable, however it’s being covered by more than just a few rogue sources and bloggers… although the headline from CBS Minnesota certainly puts the program in a slightly different light, titled: “Drug Users Recruited to Help Police with Hands-On Training.”

So there you have it – if the police catch you using drugs, you will either be arrested, or they will give you even more drugs and then drop you off at an Occupy protest.  For anyone in Minnesota jonesing for a fix, maybe you could just walk in to the police department as ask to be “recruited?”
