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.

I was wondering the same thing.
On a denominationally-related message board, someone took my photo and made a late-night posting with some seriously damaging false information about my family using a name that appeared to be me but had the wrong IP address and came from a different state. It included enough personal details about me that the moderator didn't immediately recognize it as false, though he had concerns. Once I saw the message, several quick phone calls and an IP trace got the postings pulled.
These things can happen if somebody has the right information and is motivated enough to harm others.
Amen, Jim... may the Lord bless you and your medical staff as they work to help you recover.

Actually, there are two of them working as a team and they’re great! They told me they had three goals when we started the treatments. The first was to reduce the pain, then control the swelling, then stop the water leakage. The pain has been greatly reduced, the swelling is under control and the drainage has completely stopped. Now they’re saying they didn’t dare hope that the ten year old wound would actually heal, but I guess they just didn’t realize the awesome power of prayer. Now they believe the healing is well underway. Praise God.”
Well, if this is really you Jongaltstr my heart goes out to you, I deal with anxiety, sometimes panic attacks, they are horrible, but nothing compared to what you are going through. If you’re kidneys are fine make sure you are eating foods high in magnesium and potassium, being low in either can cause all kinds of bad things.
Crack open your Bible, and remember who is in control, and hopefully where you are heading some day, all will be fine my friend.
Perhaps you have someone in your family or past whom you think recovered from serious problems without help, an Uncle Charlie.
I am here to tell you there is NO UNCLE CHARLIE. He got help form a doctor, pastor or experienced person who has dealt with what ailed or was impacting him. Y0u should recognize this and get some assistance and not try and deal with this on your own.
I would also suggest that you take some time off from the political fray and things that have you very upset. Let us handle this period for you. You need to concentrate on getting your life back together.
Humility is knowing the truth about yourself and being willing to accept it. Accept that you need assistance and seek it out today. Best wishes for getting this stabilized and restoration coming your way.
I have nothing to offer but best wishes.
The VA doctors should be ready to try a new approach.
DO NOT CHANGE YOUR OWN SCRIPTS OR CHANGE DOSAGES WITHOUT MEDICAL SUPERVISION.
THIS WILL CAUSE YOUR MIND TO TURN INSIDE OUT.
(JR, this is a possible explanation....)
The dumbbell account has been banned. The jongaltsr account is still active. That would indicate that the dumbbell post is a new troll, with a different IP, and not connected to the jongaltsr account and postings.
That makes sense to me, because if someone is having a psychotic break of such severity to be suffering hallucinations and delusions, their mental processes are so disorganized that they would be incapable of crafting the post that started this thread, incapable of changing their profile page to change their location and add profanity to their contact info, and incapable of creating a new account to post an explanation of these behaviors.
That’s my two cents.
What say you to #628?
I saw that possibility before replying and so what? There is no harm done to who posts a reply of well wishes.
I don’t believe I criticized you or anyone else for offering whatever they wish by way of reply. If you perceive anything in my post that indicates that to you, my apologies.
If anyone knows jongaltsr in real life, now might be a good time to give him a phone call.
weirdest thread ever
No, I didn't take it that way. Sorry if it seems I did.
Just now stumbling accross this thread and saw your reply.
I recall reading - maybe a month ago - that the original 668-Neighbor of the Beast transfered his screen name to a completely new person. There are details either on their FReep page of somewhere in their posting history.
Weird, huh?
I was believing the story until I saw the dog’s name. If it were real he would know better not to ID ranger.
They’ve been banned.
are you and gov_bean_ counter related?
No.
Samething almost happened to me, but I told them it was “Bush’s Fault” that I posted what I did and they let me go.
