    An incomplete list of AIM members and supporters killed on or near Pine Ridge from March 1973 through March 1976 in the FBI approved GOON Reign of Terror would read as follows:

    Frank Clearwater (4/17/73), between eight and twelve individuals packing supplies into Wounded Knee (4/73), Buddy Lamont (4/27/73), Clarence Cross (6/ 19/73), Priscilla White Plume (7/14/73), Julius Bad Heart Bull (7/30/73), Donald He Crow (8/7/73), Philip Black Elk (9/21/73), Melvin Spider (9/22/73), Aloysius Long Soldier (10/5/73), Philip Little Crow (10/10/73), Pedro Bissonette (10/17/73), Allison Fast Horse (11/20/73), Edward Means, Jr. (2/18/73), Edward Standing Soldier (2/18/74), Lorinda Red Paint (2/27/74), Roxeine Roark (4/19/74), Dennis LaComte (9/7/74), Jackson Washington Cutt (9/11/74), Robert Reddy (9/16/74), Delphine Crow Dog (11/9/74), Elaine Wagner (11/30/74), Floyd S. Binias (11/30/74), Yvette Lorraine Lone Hill (12/28/74), Leon L. Swift Bird (1/5/75), Stacy Cattier (3/20/75), Edith Eagle Hawk and her two children (3/21/75), Jeanette Bissonette (3/27/75), Richard Eagle (3/30/75), Hilda R. Good Buffalo (4/4/75), Jancita Eagle Deer (4/4/75), Ben Sitting Up (5/20/75), Kenneth Little (6/1/75), Leah Spotted Eagle (6/15/75), Joseph Stuntz Kffisright (6/26/75), James Brings Yellow (7/12/75), Andrew Paul Stewart (7/25/75), Randy Hunter (8/25/75), Howard Blue Bird (9/9/75), Jim Little (9/10/75), Olivia Binias (10/26/75), Janice Black Bear (10/26/75), Michelle Tobacco (10/27/75), Carl Plenty Arrows, Sr (12/6/75), Frank LaPointe (12/6/75), Lydia Cut Grass (1/5/76), Byron DeSersa (1/30/76), Lena R. Slow Bear (2/6/76), Anna Mae Pictou Aquash (approximately 2/14/76), Hobart Horse (3/1/76), Cleveland Reddest (3/26/76).
    This tally, which totals 60-64 individuals – depending upon whether one counts eight or twelve dead among those missing along the Wounded Knee perimeter – results from combining a list entitled "The Murder of AIM Members and Supporters on Pine Ridge to Date," compiled by WKLDOC researcher Candy Hamilton in September 1976, and another published as "The Deaths at Pine Ridge in the Reign of Terror, 1973-1976," in Akwesasne Notes, Vol. 8, No. 5, Midwinter 1976-77. Both sources stipulate their itemization is far from complete. Nor does the count include individuals murdered after March 1976, including Betty Jo Dubray (4/28/76), Marvin Two Two (5/6/76), Julia Pretty Hips (5/9/76), Sam Afraid of Bear (5/24/76), Kevin Hill (6/4/76), Betty Means (7/3/76), and Sandra Wounded Foot (7/19/76).

    Like today, this idiot officer drone repeats the same old thing: it's outsiders who are compromising the stability of America, it's not what we are doing at home… It's crazy how much screen time you give that complete fool, and his outdated, incorrect ideas.

    The fact you're even listening to the FBI for this is a mistake. The title for this video is a mistake. The FBI and American government were so overwhelmingly in the wrong is obvious. You don't need to do the Louis Theroux thing here at all.

    Leonard Peltier, at the very least, is 1000% guilty of felony murder. He was most certainly there, armed, took place in the shootout where 2 FBI agents were killed, then he fled to Canada under a false identity. He deserved to spend the rest of his life in prison. He was NOT a political prisoner, he is a convicted criminal. Supporting him because he's a Native American activist is the most ignorant thing one can do, his actions and the people he was with resulted in the death of two federal agents.

    The Agent's quote saying "The message is, clearly, violence works" is so wild, when the obvious message is, no violence or even crime is required to serve life in prison

    Please come to PR and do a video for Filiberto Ojeda’s murder by the FBI in 2003. It’s an interesting case hence most bloody operations by the agency occurred during the 60s and 70s. This was the beginning of the 21st century and the FBI assassinated in cold blood this puertorrican freedom fight while he was living clandestine life. It’s good story that is largely unspoken inside the archipelago and the world.

    i am from he same tribe as leonard, but yet i feel conflicted about the pour of support for him. my hesitation doesn't come in regards to wether or not he shot fbi agents, but ultimately that he had a hand in the murder of anna mae aquash, a fellow aim activist under suspicion of being a mole for the FBI of which they never had any proof of her being one. many of our male leaders in aim got wrapped up in power and other women wrapped up in jealousy….many of them felt they were above the law or better than others. rest in peace anna mae

    If the United States government treated people fairly and allowed democracy to flourish, we would be in a much better position. Law enforcement is not the solution; it often exacerbates the problems it aims to address. Many FBI officers are themselves delusional. While I acknowledge the atrocities of the Soviet Union, if the U.S. government had undergone a transformation and truly represented the will of the people over the past 50 years, we would have witnessed profound progress instead of diverting trillions of dollars to the Epstein family. There was no Cold War communist threat; it was all about dividing the American public and establishing a military police state to ensure the Epstein family continued to receive trillions from hardworking Americans.
