A couple of hours ago receive a hard knock on the door. I answered the door and about 7 or 8 agents all flashing badges (claiming to be FBI and/or CIA) rushed me and pushed me against the far wall.
My dog attacked and they would have shot him had I not broken free for a second and covered him by laying him on the floor beneath me.
After things calmed down a bit and I received assurances that nothing would happen to him if I placed him in the bedroom and closed the door.
I did so and they then read me my rights and explained that my opinions expressed on Free Republic were the reason they were there. I had expressed my opinion of what I thought of the current President and the majority in congress and was therefore a potential threat to the government. After what seemed to be hours they came to the conclusion (I hope) that I was merely expressing my opinion and not a leader of a counter revolutionary army - as they saw it.
They searched my apartment for weapons and found 4 (which I have not fired in over a year or more) and they seized them for testing. My dog (Ranger) was not happy with the situation so I had to hold on to him during the search to keep him from being shot.
They also seized my computer and downloaded my entire files system. I suppose they also copied any files erased by normal erasure techniques. They returned the computer as "WAS" (as far as I can tell) but I after careful consideration the past few hours I have concluded that they are monitoring me closely.
I'm not even sure this message will make it through but what else can I do but try?
If (Big IF!) this does make it through, beware. They are watching and may make a visit to your residence and give your the same routine.
It really shook me up and I have trouble keeping my nerves steady and my thoughts straight as I write this message.
Once this gets out (IF THIS GETS OUT) I can pretty much expect their return but this time they probably won't be quite as considerate of myself and my dog who they will probably shoot on sight.
I have packed my truck with essentials but I suspect that there are those that are watching so I may not make it to one of my favorite mountain camping sites.
There I will not have any communications except when I get into town and use WIFI to make any contact.
Good luck and keep your heads down.
They have become serious about enforcing their new powers - and some of us might not make it.
I'll probably be #1 on their list.
Semper Fi and God Bless one and all.

Like all great artists, I see you’ve used ‘ceiling cat’.
Probably 10 years ago, my son got on my computer and told everyone here how great I thought Clinton was. Man did I have some explaining to do.
Then Don Morgan went away. Wish one of them would come back.
I don’t know about that...a woman I worked with years ago once had a Treasury Agent of some sort call her to ask her some questions about another person and he read her the Miranda over the telephone...made no sense to me or to her at the time but it is what happened. I don’t know if he did it to intimidate her or what- she did ask him if she was under arrest, funny stuff. I have no idea what the guys function was, he was doing some sort of investigation. Treasury agents back then could be anything from Secret Service to Customs to whatever else was under Treasury. We thought it was a hoax or prank since we were in a construction office and worked with some onery men. The guy they questioned her about did end up in all sorts of trouble though- he was smuggling in gold somewhere, ended up in prison. Crazy though, just as crazy as what this guy said but was real.

Well, we don’t know if it was a bizarre yet fruitful opus or what. I will say this. My son would not be able to sit to this day if he pretended to be me. :^)
Yes, his wife was not hurt except for the trauma she suffered. The fire was contained in one small area. It was sudden and surely had some kind of explosive element. The sad thing is it was never solved.
The CIA, by Law, has never been allowed to operate within the United States.
Could be the FBI or the SS (ironic initials.)
Of course, using words that are known to raise interest by the national security cowboys would be bad enough. Using all such known words certainly waves a red flag and forces answers to to the obvious question and raises another : what were those words?
I can't help wondering if Amish and Norwegian Swedes are among the new red flags.
Yes, he had left his computer in the den and went to a back bathroom and that is where the flash fire happened.
Voltage. LULZ.
Thanks for posting.
I guess that “john galt” is “Deep in the Huertgen Forest” on a picnic with “Classygreeneyedblond”

Wow, Don Morgan was a piece of work. Seems like yesterday.
Sorry, I may have inadvertently been the cause of that; my name is Svenge, and I’m an Oslo dentist.
Perhaps you know of my cinematic achievements?
I’ve starred in many Norwegian møvies: “The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist”, “Fillings of Passion”, “The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink”
I give interstellar toothbrushes to all my friends, family members and patients...
Well, I could think of two explanations. The first is the effect of alcohol after imbibing for an hour or more.
The second is that someone hijacked his Outlook address book and sent funny email to everybody and that got someone's attention. Just had that happen to me with an account I use as the "spam" magnet, which I check only once a month.
Have you let him off of restriction yet? heh
What kind of honey treatment is this? Do you just buy honey and slather it where it’s needed?
“Did you receive the Martian anal probe?”
Actually, the victim was given the standard LEO administered Organic anal probe.
