Sounds more than an overreach. From the article:
" Philip Haney, a retired Homeland Security officer, said fusion centers like the one that targeted Arthur operate with impunity and have flipped the focus of their analytics – from potential terrorists to American citizens who are concerned about Islamic terrorists.
"Everything is upside down and backwards; the people who are actually concerned, curious, or take the initiative to protect their communities from the Islamic threat, they are the ones who are now considered the threat, and the ones who were originally supposed to be the threat are now the victims," Haney said. "Brenda had her constitutional rights violated, and the worst part about it is her accuser remains faceless – nobody knows where this is coming from.""
