Just received a visit from the FBI
7/30/2011 | John Galt - psuedoname

Posted on 07/30/2011 6:17:27 PM PDT by jongaltsr

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.

They would have had to go through Jim and he said he didn’t know what happened.

I don’t recall anything about a struggle either fatima. Just a strange flash fire out of nowhere.

It sounds like it, most seem to agree with that.

Early on I wrote that I couldn’t believe a longtime FReeper would just go crazy like that and I was “beginning to doubt my eyes”.

Someone wrote; “and so it begins..”

LOLOL, that gave me a good laugh.

I’ve posted during earthquakes, but I thing even I would draw the line at posting while on fire.

Me too, during a tornado. But I agree. Being on fire would pull me away from the keyboard.

Great! Congratulations! I’ve heard of the maggot treatment. Much prefer the honey. They also pick and scrape off some of the dead stuff and gunk that doesn’t wash out each time they clean the wound. But I guess the honey has antibiotic properties and also helps keep the wound bed relatively clean.

The DUers repulse me, they are loony toons.

[I caught a fish with a GPS tracker in it.]

Why in the world would a fish have a GPS tracker in it? Was it a special kind of fish - that’s protected or something?

You’re right. I read some of his last comments and he was getting pretty careless. Most of us are aware not to do that.

For sure. Kos, HuffPo and FR are frequently quoted in the MSM. They won't touch DU because it's so foul.

Yes. They did. Wasn’t someone seen hanging around his house or something? I know someone suspicious was seen. Can’t remember the details.

Yes, Chiefs wife said she heard him talking to another person that "was not my husband". There were accelerates used in the fire. There was talk of a man who had been hanging around his house......

Yes, DU is foul. You know that this thread is going to be talked about on other forums tomorrow. Not that it matters, but it will be a topic.

Maybe JohnGaltsr posted this thread as cover and is actually headed out from Alabama to Washington, D.C., to attend Obama’s birthday party. Maybe the FBI should have visited him!

If so Galtsy has an agenda!

If you go on about it too much, there are people who will scream into they're blue in the face that it's some kind of camera effect on insects, and you're "tinfoil, tinfoil" for mentioning it. It's very Alinsky-like. In Iraq, just after the lights went out in Baghdad for the 1st time, they showed up on a camera on Fox News.



I've never been convinced they were insects, especially given the timing of their appearance

Not all the threads about it are coming up in a search. However there are several that say it was arson and murder. Do you need the links fatima?

"You’re right. I read some of his last comments and he was getting pretty careless. Most of us are aware not to do that.

I'm sure you are giving him the benefit of the doubt that he was just joking or blowing hot air...but if you read it again..it's impossible to tell.

So yea..jokester (if that's what he is) has created his own sh*t storm. I'm not going to lose any sleep over his new "problems".

As the fireman said the fire and could have happen in many ways and I never read anything about a struggle.

Chiefs wife said she heard another man's voice. I remember one FReeper who was an arson investigator was helping her. I never read of the outcome. It's been a long time.
