Editing Section A of the Reserve Index

<blockquote>
''Yes, our government developed a plan for rounding up people who could contradict the GIN. There‘s a plan for a coming total collapse of confidence in our system.''

[[File:Reserve-Index.jpg|thumb|alt=In 1955, the FBI tightened formal standards for the '''Security Index''', reducing its size from 26,174 to 12,870 by 1958. However, there is no indication that the FBI told the Department that it kept the names of persons taken off the Security Index on a Communist Index, because the Bureau believed such persons remained "potential threats." The secret '''Communist Index''' was renamed the '''Reserve Index''' in 1960 and expanded to include "influential" persons deemed likely to "aid subversive elements" in an emergency because of their "subversive associations and ideology." Such individuals fell under the following categories:
'''Professors, teachers, and educators; labor union organizers and leaders; writers, lecturers, newsmen and others in the mass media field; lawyers, doctors, and scientists; other potentially influential persons on a local or national level; individuals who could potentially furnish financial or material aid.'''|People on The Reserve Index, from ''Intelligence Activities and the Rights of Americans, Book II'', page 55]]

[[File:Reserve-Index-p-140.png|thumb|alt=A distressing number of the programs and techniques developed by the intelligence community involved transgressions against human decency that were no less serious than any technical violations of law. Some of the most fundamental values of this society were threatened by activities such as the smear campaign against Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the testing of dangerous drugs on unsuspecting American citizens, the dissemination of information about the sex lives, drinking habits, and marital problems of electronic surveillance targets, and the COINTELPRO attempts to turn dissident organizations against one another and to destroy marriages.|FBI transgressions against human decency, from ''Intelligence Activities and the Rights of Americans, Book II'', page 140]]
