The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is a "law enforcement" organization, created in 1908 by Charles Joseph Bonaparte in the United States. The organization's initial purpose, according to it's own statement, was to address a "new era of lawlessness" plaguing the United States, which included "violent" anarchists, striking workers, local political corruption and others. The organization was initially focused on white-collar and civil rights matters.[1]

In 1964, the FBI sent a letter to Martin Luther King, Jr. telling him to kill himself.[2] In 1969, they killed Black Panther leader Fred Hampton as part of COINTELPRO.[3]
