Operation Defuse is kicking off as an ongoing collaboration between various patriots and government oversight groups to educate and formulate a plan to provide oversight based upon common principals.
Kicking it off is Catherine Bleish from Liberty Restoration Project (LRP) and John Bush from Texans for Accountable Government (TAG) with a speaking tour of parts of the country with important information on how Fusion Centers have been fought in Texas and Missouri.
The "Fusion" of intelligence between law enforcement agencies is being touted as the biggest step for police collaboration and tools to fight crime in recent history. In reality, the good must come with the bad and this is a terrible step back for Liberty. Fusion Centers provide the backbone for many Government database operations, and some (MIAC in Missouri among others) have reached recent infamy for allowing collaboration with political groups (ADL, SPLC) to influence how warnings are drafted.
There are big plans in the works for Missouri. Starting in 2010 We plan to resume our fight against the improper practices of the MIAC center by using creative local strategies to help the State Legislature come up with a plan with some teeth to ensure that nothing like the Strategic Reports at http://wiki.libertyrestorationproject.org happens again. Stay tuned for details as I have signed up as the Operation: Defuse - Missouri Coordinator.
If you are willing to help, I'm looking for volunteers in Saint Louis, KC, Springfield, and Jefferson City.
