Amazingly, even before computers existed, local cops had a pretty good idea who the troublemakers were in their town and where they were likely to be found.
If the police are stockpiling information it is clear they are not interested in criminals who continue to get away with crimes. Criminals who are convicted cost the government money. Targeting law-abiding citizens with “fake crimes” that involve fines generates money for governments. If violating privacy is required, they are sure to do it.

Leo’s are not your friends. That day and age has been long, long gone. Like before wwii.
Even just going through a DWI checkpoint whether you have had a drink or not gets you on their list.
The surveillance state is here, in spades.
In the exchange with Cinque — who in addition to being a gun advocate is an East Haven firefighter who has known Peterson for years — Cameron Smith and others, Peterson said that he would “give my left nut to bang down your door and come for your gun.”
The comment appears to have been aimed at Smith, who in an earlier comment appeared to have baited Peterson, saying that “POLICE OFFICER Peterson would round up Jews and put them in ghettos, if the government told him to.”
Cinque said he “was shocked” when he saw Peterson’s comments “because I thought I knew” him. “I was shocked at the standpoint that it’s someone that I do know that would have these views ... Somebody that I’ve known for a long time.”
Yep. There are LEOs who would love to take us down; and it would seem they need little provocation.
