Made in USA

Sorry for the compression - I mixed PAL and NTSC footage and that's why the quality is not so good in a few shots.

Anyway, let me know what you think. Thanks.

Voytek

PS I hope cops will not sue me :)

Total green light!!!! Superb!!

This is phenomenal, I don't think there has ever been a documentary on television that highlights the fact that police sometimes act as agent provacetours; this needs to be seen!

I've heard many incidents such as this, where there are undercover officers that infiltrate marches and instigate the crowd and then coming from behind and bashing people and arresting them. I have heard this happened alot during the protests in NY during the GOP convention in '04.

I've heard about this kind of "incidents" from my parents (they were telling me about "techniques" communist police used against Polish people) until I actually got it on tape. I was naive believing it would never happen in USA. Now I know it happens everywhere.

very important footage. my only suggestion would be to get to it faster--the beginning is a bit slow.

good job my friend

scary.

It should be illegal for undercover cops to attend protests.

Anway, I gave you a greenlight.

Now this is the sort of video that makes Current TV current!! It definitely needs to be shown not just on the web but everywhere! It's really interesting when you first look at this video it seems like it's a small pathethic march and then... it morphs into something very sinister! As simply put by some else scary... very scary!

Thanks!

This is the best video I have seen on here yet. I live in Detroit where police are like wild animals. Our freedoms are disappearing. The presidential election was between a Skull and Bones man and Skull and Bones man.

This is truly powerful. CURRENT - PUT THIS ON AIR NOW!!! Everyone, demand that CURRENT SHOW THIS!!!

its going on all over the usa even here in a little town called hamilton ohio i,m 45 year old ive seen our rights dwindle ever year .this is a police state its big busness.they make money putting u in jail makin false charges .they get in your face make u mess up .i once told a police officer he left his car lights on tryin to be helpful .i got slammed against a wall and checked for warents. if u think you can stop this your crazzy just look at the 60s what they did to those who spoke out.

Wow dude. great video. I'm glad we still have the freedom to watch this...

very nice piece. I like how difficult it is to spot the police bike going into the banner. its almost like he had to sneak infront them behind you in oder to run into them. your commentary provides an important percpective in terms of your experince within pre berlin-wall-down eastern bloc living. i am new to this site but very much look forward to watching more of your content.

Kept me at the edge... excellent

I meant ... link

I hope this is fake!

You should show this to the ACLU. There should be an investigation. It's not enought just to watch it, we must ... I must do someting legal to prevent this from happening again.

Powerful.

Glit.

My only question is, why is this not airing all over America? I would like to know if this is happening elsewhere around the country. Our freedoms continue to be taken away from us in the post 9/11 era and the police and politicians are taking advantage of the Patriot Act to reduce our freedoms, mainly the freedom of speech, which is necessary to keep the crooked politicians and thier policies in check.

Well know to the elite, unkown to the sheep. Police are just as corrupt as the scumbags in Washington. Greenlight!

This was a good idea for a Current Pod, however, i'm not convinced. It just doesn't seem believable to me. The narration is broken and overly scripted. The entire protest and all of the "undercover" cops, could have totally been staged (not saying that they were, only that it seems very possible). I would have liked some type of soundtrack to keep the overall mood a little more tense. Basically, this film brings light to a very real issue, but fails (in my opinion) to be ready for a mass audience.

Well done Voytek. Look forward to more stuff from you. Great insight and commentary.

Freedom is just a something else to control for them, just signatures on paper. As long as it takes for them to realize the good intention behind peacefull protest, the longer they will get away with intentional harm.
-Fight for you rights!

Thanks for your feedback. We are so happy to announce that Current TV is going to air this piece. Now, I am not so concerned about freedom in USA. It looks that here you can voice your concerns and not be arrested :) Hopefully NYPD will not knock to my door :)

Voytek and Kasia

Hey Voytek, congratulations... your video is evidence of a story referenced in today's New York Times.

In Westfield, NJ this girl was yanked from a crowd behind barriers, and you would have thought they had grabbed a dangerous terrorist. I also saw some frivolous arrest in NY at the worldcantwait action.
the girl in the pic still owes thousands of dollars -for doing NOTHING wrong at all, no civil disobedieance -nothing.

this is a great piece, glad to see its going to air.

great piece...!belongs! on CURRENT TV

Thanks for GL's! Today is a big day: Made in USA will air on Current TV for the first time :)

Voytek

Thanks for getting this on tape...very interesting. I... as an american take my freedom for granted too often. It was a real wake up call to hear you, as someone from another country, bringing light to this issue. I believe that our current government in the US has done more to take away our civil rights than any administration in the past century. They have used the "Homeland Security " card till it is worn out. Lets face it..if terrorist want to strike..they will. Thanks for airing this segment .

It's unbelievable that we have not learned anything about freedom from history. That we go to war for other people’s freedom and let ours be eroded by small acts year after year. This isn't just about Bush this has been going on for years. When will it be too much, when will we finally say that is enough. I fear only when it touches each of us individually.

our situation, in the us, has gone way too far. we have lost the majority of our rights, due to the patriot act, and now with alito's nomination confirmed we are even more f$%*d. we are in control of our minds, for now, and need to evoke a radical reversal before all is lost. the fear monging bush plan involves the rape & pilage of all of us & our beloved planet for the sole benefit of his republican elite.

how do you feel about that?

What an excellent pod!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT WORK!!!

There is no mass conspiracy here. Just the results of the world we have created for ourselves. Please read Eisenhower's Farewell Address to the Nation Jan 17, 1961 and know that people knew this was coming. The dogs tail is leading the head.

I see the problem of a police state as well. I also have the answer and a start as to taking back control. We, the people need to take control by first not using banks to save money. Withdraw every penny from the banks, buy a safe and save your own money. This will hit em all hard. If everyone did this the banks, politicians and corporations would be at our mercy. The idea is to soon bring back actual currency which has been slowly eliminated and to put banks out o business. There is no need for a FEDERAL RESERVE BANK it is unconstitutional. Banks are a fraud.

BTW I am from the newly appointed most corrupt state in the US. Korrupticut, I mean Connecticut. We are also the home of the 1st State Police Department which rwe really do not even need. The state police operate as revenue collectors i.e. tickets etc. We are being raped by state governments, we are not being properly represented. The times we live in are getting worse in regard to freedom. I will NOT sacrifice my freedoms because of the acts caused by terrorism. The events happeneing in the U.S. are exactly what the anti-U.S. persons want.

nolasco11,

This is not airing in America because it's not in the best interest of the mega conglomerations which own the televisions networks. They work hand in hand with the government and receive massive tax breaks and bribes for keeping with their agenda. Free speech is slowly disappearing. One of the few places left is the internet...until Internet II comes into play... link
The New World Order of a unified global government is coming. Mark my words. The UN will be in charge of the world in the next 20 years if people don't wake up out of their ignorance and blind trust for their governments and get out there to get the general public educated before it's too late. Also, don't trust the news, it's the propaganda that is feeding everyone into a state of trust that their government is out there to stop the baddies and not the general populous...WAKE UP!!!

Great video, by the way. Keep it up!
