Jason Corona lives in California's Mojave Desert, a teenage wasteland if ever there was one.

That has set off alarm bells at the American Civil Liberties Union.

WARNING! WARNING! LAW ENFORCEMENT ATTEMPTING TO ENFORCE LAWS!
The American Center for Leftist Umbrage jumps into their Chaos Van armed with a well stocked arsenal of lawyers, an over powering sense of pathos, and a grave misunderstanding of the constitution, ready to fight reason, order and morality wherever it may dwell!

GOD BLESS YOU ACLU! er- may a higher power, if such a higher power exists, may he or she bestow good fortune upon you!

The NDIC said five types of people should be targeted, including previous drug offenders, legalization advocates, anarchists and people promoting "an expanded freedom of expression" that pushes the boundaries of the First Amendment.

The NDIC said five types of people should be targeted, including:

1. previous drug offenders,
2. legalization advocates,
3. anarchists
4. and people promoting "an expanded freedom of expression" that pushes the boundaries of the First Amendment.

I guess 5 must be "Everyone else", just in case the first 4 missed anyone who might have something worth taking in a civil forfeiture.

evidence of drug use -- evidence that included paraphernalia such as glow sticks and bottled water

My Seabee detachment is going to get busted the next time we do night ops. We have all sorts of similar drug paraphenalia, and guns too!
