Absolutely remarkable. A 51 year-old man lives with his father in a trailer. Thirty-four years ago - as a minor - the man was arrested with a friend that had forged a check. That made him a "former felon." His father collects guns. The dozen or so guns are secured in a safe. With search warrant in hand, "15 officers from the U.S. bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and local police" surround the trailer, use a battering ram on an unlocked door, throw people to the floor, point guns at their heads, handcuff them, and proceed to trash the place.

Same thing escalated under Clinton.
We can expect gov’t armed thugs doing more and more of this as time goes on and Obama seeks justification for antigun legislation.

Three doctors we know of recently received letters and phone calls from the BATF telling them they were on their “watch list” due to the amount of ammunition they had purchased. This happened within the past 10-14 days or so.

Stick around. It’s going to get much worse. Those without concealed carry licenses—get them NOW. It will be much more difficult, if not impossible, to do so later on.

Nothing, NOTHING, not your life, not your kids or wife, not your dog, not the sanctity of your house, nothing is as important as officer safety dontcha know??? Welcome to the police state, question it, and the number of FReepers who will call you a cop hater is mind blowing, and ironic, on a site named Free Republic. They should change the name of the place to Oppressed Oligarchy or something catchy like that.

MSM accounts of the incident will be thoroughly sanitized.

On the news just this morning they had a list of things that are doing better because of the “recession”.
Included storable foods, gold coins, guns.
“During a recession, people buy things that give them some immediate enjoyment” they said. “Oh, like the gold coins!!!” one gal replied.
Idiots.

This is a good reason to always buy with cash, and never use internet suppliers.

The daughter of a friend works with them. If there was a compelling reason for them to make the letters public, they might do so.

You have another plausible explanation for the description of how the place was searched???
With search warrant in hand, "15 officers from the U.S. bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and local police" surround the trailer, use a battering ram on an unlocked door, throw people to the floor, point guns at their heads, handcuff them, and proceed to trash the place.
