Our American Police State
From my sister in Atlanta;

She has a friend that recently traveled by plane to Bermuda, or some other place that needed a passport. She had an unpaid $500 traffic ticket. Why it was unpaid was some kind of choice she had made and I can't offer more on that. When she arrived back in Atlanta there was FBI, CIA, local cops and the like at the gate. There were there expressly to ARREST HER, DETAIN HER, AND CONDUCT A FULL CAVITY SEARCH ON HER!

In my opinion, she was RAPED BY THE US GOVERNMENT!

But, hey, anything to make us safer, huh?

I got this from my sister and I don't know the friend in question, so this could be considered heresy. My point is, if this happened to someone in my personal orbit, how much is this scene being repeated in our current police state?

Sis says her friend contacted her local 'representative' and I advised contacting the ACLU. It's up to her, but, I'd like to think if this happened to me or my wife or someone else in my immediate family, I'd be moved to fight my own government TO MY DEATH!

And I think our un-american government is only going to get worse unless all us sheeple rise up and stand against the current United Police States of America!

When Ashley Chown walked up the stairs to her apartment last Tuesday noon (Oct. 30), she was thinking about the pre-Halloween party she was throwing that night. She was startled to find a police officer at her door.

She asked hesitantly if there was a problem.

"Are you Ashley or Kim?" the officer asked.

"I'm Ashley. Why, what's going on?"

"Well, Ashley, where do you plan to live after Thanksgiving break?"

"In there," she said pointing to the door of her apartment.

"Well, if you have that party tonight," the cop said, pointing to a flier for her party printed off Facebook.com, "you can expect to receive eviction notices next week."
