That's what comes from the lack of imagination and general state of ignorance among the LE personnel. Instead of immediately shooting the perps with silver bullets, driving wooden [ash is the best] stakes through them, or at least liberally dousing them with garlic concoction [old Chinese sources strongly recommend adding stale urine to it] - so, what did the police do? - they arrested them, and now have a lawsuit on their hands.

"... they arrested them, and now have a lawsuit on their hands."

Maybe the cops are hoping that it will just ... uh, die away?

The problem here is that they weren't perps.

The worst thing they might have been guilty of was going to a bad costume party, but when I think about some of the costume parties I have been to, this one seems pretty tame.

And this weapons of mass destruction BS is a complete crock.

After having seen how the Patriot Act has been misused and every two-bit drug dealer is now somehow connected to "terrorism" to both justify police tactics and to increase poenalties, I am now 100% against it.

If we want a special law to go after muslim fanatics who want to kill us, I am for it. When LE turns around and uses that law against common criminals, they have fouled their own nest, and we should take that tool away from them. And, any success that the muslim fanatics have because the tool was taken away can be laid squarely at the feet of the ones who misused it.
