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.

Wait,you posted he was murdered.I posted it was never proven.Your post is wrong.DJ MacWoW .As the fireman said the fire and could have happen in many ways and I never read anything about a struggle.
Great to hear. May the healing continue!
I’m baffled.
No idea if this was true, to tell the truth I’m utterly confused.
Not going to speculate.
Nothing suspicious in his ip log.
Keep in mind he posted the story. This is a FReeper Funny. If I am reading anybody their rights............
I’ve had a long lasting leg wound, no where as bad or as long lasting as yours. They treated it with an antibiotic also good for treating the Black Death. It is just finished healing. They were thinking of using maggots to remove the dead flesh. All in all I’d prefer honey.
Ha, I just knew I wouldn’t get away with that one. How can one relate what happened without the puns?
LOL! Obama can’t be late for his birthday party on Tuesday, Admission only $35,000.
[Yup. I learned early on FR that things are not always as they seem.]
I’m too trusting I guess, but I’ve learned some lessons myself.
I remember being very involved with the case back then, but so many years have gone by and my mind is not what it used to be, so I can’t recall all the details either. I just know I lost a good FRiend.
From what the Boss has said it now sounds like the poster simply has gone off the deep end.
I wrote that same thing way earlier Nan. Just couldn’t believe such a long time Freeper would suddenly go crazy. I got some pretty funny replies on that, lol.
It’s just strange, but then, I lead such a normal life!
I use honey and cortisone on my legs. It does help but it has to be all the time.
I hope so. God knows, they entertain us.
I caught a fish with a GPS tracker in it.
I wrapped it in foil and buried it.
I didn't report it. They'll never find me.
Oops, I SAY hacked.
Here is what I do not understand. For 8 years on DU and KOS all they talked about was killing Bush. You would figure that they would have received visits from our friends in the FBI and it would have been all over the NYTimes that Bush’s Gestapo are harming Americans expressing their displeasure with the government.
Instability is as instability does.
After all of those tinfoil stories about the Debt Limit fight on FR the last few days, this thread sort of caps things off.
