A couple of hours ago receive a hard knock on the door. I answered the door and about 7 or 8 agents all flashing badges (claiming to be FBI and/or CIA) rushed me and pushed me against the far wall.
My dog attacked and they would have shot him had I not broken free for a second and covered him by laying him on the floor beneath me.
After things calmed down a bit and I received assurances that nothing would happen to him if I placed him in the bedroom and closed the door.
I did so and they then read me my rights and explained that my opinions expressed on Free Republic were the reason they were there. I had expressed my opinion of what I thought of the current President and the majority in congress and was therefore a potential threat to the government. After what seemed to be hours they came to the conclusion (I hope) that I was merely expressing my opinion and not a leader of a counter revolutionary army - as they saw it.
They searched my apartment for weapons and found 4 (which I have not fired in over a year or more) and they seized them for testing. My dog (Ranger) was not happy with the situation so I had to hold on to him during the search to keep him from being shot.
They also seized my computer and downloaded my entire files system. I suppose they also copied any files erased by normal erasure techniques. They returned the computer as "WAS" (as far as I can tell) but I after careful consideration the past few hours I have concluded that they are monitoring me closely.
I'm not even sure this message will make it through but what else can I do but try?
If (Big IF!) this does make it through, beware. They are watching and may make a visit to your residence and give your the same routine.
It really shook me up and I have trouble keeping my nerves steady and my thoughts straight as I write this message.
Once this gets out (IF THIS GETS OUT) I can pretty much expect their return but this time they probably won't be quite as considerate of myself and my dog who they will probably shoot on sight.
I have packed my truck with essentials but I suspect that there are those that are watching so I may not make it to one of my favorite mountain camping sites.
There I will not have any communications except when I get into town and use WIFI to make any contact.
Good luck and keep your heads down.
They have become serious about enforcing their new powers - and some of us might not make it.
I'll probably be #1 on their list.
Semper Fi and God Bless one and all.

Humour requires an element of truth, no?
Nice to see you on the Undead Thread Palladin. :-)
I see. (Not)
LOL!!!!
If they ever come to my house and see who I really am, they will all fall down laughing and while they are thus impaired I shall make my escape.
Not an unintelligent idea!
A palindrome is a phrase that is the same forward and backward, such as your example, “race car.”
Famous ones include, “A man, a plan, a canal - Panama!” and “Able was I, ere i saw Elba,” a legendary statement of the late Emperor Napoleon.
The Western musical comedy group “Riders in the Sky” had a skid about “Palindrome,” which included the line, “Sex at noon taxes!”
Skit, I mean. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be a recording or video online.
Howdy. Warmer today 80’s. Every year this town has a day. It was founded in the 1800’s so it was busy here. Now they are playing bingo in the local Community Center.
They had a Quilt show, egg toss, three legged race, grease pole challenge.During the day Smokey the Bear shows up and then the town does a tug of war over the creek with the Forest service (Locals usually tie the end of the rope to a 4 wheeler so the Forest service cant see) . They also play a softball game with them as well.
Not as many as usual this year.
I just saw this thread, and haven’t yet even read any farther than your post. But let me tell you a thing or two about trolls.
Sign up date can mean a lot or it may mean nothing. Past posts tell the real story. You can go all the way back to day one very easily and check. Often these so called ‘old timers’ are just old time sign uppers, but not posters or contributors. I have no clue if this poster is legit or not, I haven’t checked or even begun to finish reading this post.
Just keep in mind, a good troll always has several slow cooking names to use, multiple names and they always assume their longevity will give them legitimacy. So don’t just check the sign up date, check their past posting history. Often you will find they post a few times in 1998, 1999 or whatever, then huge gaps. Sometimes gaps of a year of more.
Bwahaha!
I remember a poster years ago who said they look for key words
________________
I doubt the story was true, but regardless, as far at key words go, abbreviations, misspelled words and spaces are your friend. That is one reason I never used the name that POS in the White Hut uses. Obozo, Obongo, Odungheap, Odumbo, Barryboy, etc. work just as well.
There are many treads from ‘99 to ‘02 that are no longer on the server so I discount gaps from that era.
Nothing of noteworthiness happen today that I have been made aware of in the deburgeoning berg where I live. They have just about finished a new distribution center witch should add about 500 jobs.
When I log onto my computer I need a password but not to log onto freerepublic.

...Nice bit of work, my compliments...
Well just damn, this thread is still going strong. :)
I have had friends in the past the would love to play a prank like this on me . Especially the more conservative ones.
Back when we were discussing on the thread if it was really him that posted. We were wondering if someone got into his account. He was zotted for awhile then restored. His profile changed over that evening.
But now this thread is this months home of the undead thread,
Good morning. Glad you had a warm day for your town anniversary. It was hot here yesterday.
