Rats, Snitches, and Agents Provocateur
If you are an activist of any stripe, a member of an unpopular religion, or worst of all an opponent of the State, you need to know how to handle the very real possibility of troublemakers within your circle. These may be police informants, government agents, or just people with grudges against other members looking to commit violence by proxy through the State.
It should go without saying that if you are conspiring to violate the Zero-Aggression Principle (ZAP), you should be ratted out and brought to justice. This may or may not involve the government. But if you are acting within the ZAP, you can still be targeted by The Powers That Be. There is an old joke from the Soviet Union that goes something like, "Where three gather to plot against Stalin, two are KGB and one is a damned fool."
As a superb companion piece to Ben's book in a much more serious tone is Claire Wolfe's Rats! Your Guide to Protecting Yourself Against Snitches, Informers, Informants, Agents Provocateurs, Narcs, Finks, and Similar Vermin. The synopsis below is quoted from the embedded link.
You may be in danger if you are:
- A political activist
- A recreational drug user
- A hobbyist or business person who works with "sensitive" materials
- A member of an unpopular religion
- A gun owner or dealer
- A participant in the underground economy
- A photographer or videographer
- A controversial thinker or writer
- Or you just happen to hang out with the wrong people
Snitches are everywhere and they're hard to detect. This brief, FREE ebook, Rats, can help you:
- Identify a snitch
- Protect yourself against snitches and agents provocateurs
- Protect your friends or colleagues
- Know how to handle yourself if you get arrested
It could even help you avoid being pressured into becoming a snitch, yourself.
Rats is the work of ex-cops, lawyers, security experts, experienced activists, outlaws, former outlaws, trained interrogators, and more. In the hour or so it takes you to read their information, you'll gain a lifetime's worth of armor against snitches, informers, informants, agents provocateurs, narcs, finks, and similar vermin.
