GRAND FORKS — Grand Forks police and the FBI on Thursday visited the home of Jodi Carlson, a leading opponent of a new corn mill to be owned by the China-based Fufeng Group, following up on a social media post quoting the Declaration of Independence that mentioned the overthrow of the government.
The authorities ultimately found no cause for concern, a police report states.
The incident has provoked an angry response from opponents of the corn mill project, many of whom are part of the “Concerned Citizens of Fufeng Project in Grand Forks” group where the activity took place.
“This is a group that is fighting against government overreach, and promoting the voices of the people who live in the community,” Carlson later wrote in a post to the group. “We are not here to be censored, nor harassed by the local police department.”
But law enforcement concern about Carlson’s Facebook activity is also an indication of how intense the debate about Fufeng Group has become in Grand Forks. The agribusiness’ interest in a North Dakota facility was announced in November, and its arrival has been marked by extreme skepticism over Fufeng’s roots in China — which has sparked strong resistance from critics of the project.

If in doubt, use the power of the state to harass and intimidate citizens, then ask questions later.
What’s the problem here folks?
No one got hurt!
psh! /s
A proper FBI would be investigating Fufeng.
Defund your local police and sheriffs.
This agency and its chief just showed its true colors, by helping the FBI. When the proper response to the FBI request should have been something along the lines of....”we’ll go by and talk to her/him and let you know how it goes”.
When you have a Sheriff, police, ATF, DEA, Customs, TSA, Border Patrol, Marshals, normally a highway patrol and state police... and EVERYONE IS LOOKING FOR A JOB.
The federal government alone. Something like 130 different law enforcement agencies.

They will miss the next Boston Marathon bomber, guaranteed. Even if the Russians tell us that these two Chechen boys are up to no good, they’ll miss it: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-explosions-boston-congress/russia-warned-u-s-about-boston-marathon-bomb-suspect-tsarnaev-report-idUSBREA2P02Q20140326
But if you forget about a single bullet in a purse that you take to a range, if you have an apple in your car (that you bought in the US) and cross the border back into the US from Mexico... OMG!!! If you’re a hairdresser and dare not abide to the lock-downs, you’ll have a “task force” of city, state and federal agents raid your shop in El Paso Texas.
Yes, the US is a police state.
But there is an upside. Anyone with a mediocre education and a clean record can get a job. IMHO, law enforcement has become a vast government Works Progress Administration (WPA).
We are putting literally hundreds of thousands of people to work. Giving them something to do and earning a decent salary while they provide some “marginal” benefit to society. Do you think I’m mean or crazy? How many terrorists has the TSA caught since their inception? 0 How effective has the DEA been in the war on drugs? 0 Other than making cool TV shows where we always win, I’m sure a Ukraine show will come out soon, many of these law enforcement agencies are redundant (duplication), may have served some political purpose when created (TSA after 9-11, DEA on the heels of the 60s and the massive drug problems back then), but they actually provide very little for the $9 billion the TSA cost the tax payer 2 years ago.
Today America is a nation not where you are greeted by seeing a statue of liberty. No, the first thing you’ll see is: http://travelskills.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/cbpline.jpg (A common feeder line - BS created by our security lunacy, and a bunch of idiots wearing military ranks, some taking their made up job far to serious...).
The Praetorian Guard.
Is it not reasonable to even question allowing a country who is currently building a navy to try and rival our and who is openly engaged in supporting our enemies around the word, to own significant domestic food processing capabilities?
This is suicide. The collaborator politicians who are allowing it need to have their heads shaved and to be marched through the streets.
“Nice place you have here, Ms. Carson. It would be a shame if SWAT had pay you a visit.”
"The law enforcement concern" in only ever directed at those who oppose the fascist government's plans.
The secret libtard police ferreting out pesky constitutionalists 🤪
They are lucky no one was murdered or at least shot. Usually when the FBI come visiting, they leave dead or shot bodies when they leave. It is their trademark.
Ask the Harding Street Husband and wife team of Huston, Texas what happens when the Huston, Texas Police Department visits you while you are going about your daily living.
reading the article sounds like the city of Grand Forks ND has gone to the dark side, police scanning facebook pages..
True. At least in the Texas incident, the Texas authorities put people in prison.
Feds don’t get punished when they burn children alive because they belong to a weird religion.
Look it up.
If the citizens copied the visiting of council members houses like proaborts are visiting scotus members houses....it should be ok. The governors here do nothing about it.
But go to complain at a council meeting and it is called an insurrection threat.
These folks can say nothing but put their heads fown. We are china.
THIS CHINESE COMPANY land deal=300 acres.
RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO GRAND FORKS AIR FORCE BASE.
NOT a good move to allow your enemy access to Air Force activity.
