Happens every day.
Thanks to weak minded idiots all jumping on bandwagons when politicians declare war on things that are concepts (war on drugs, war on terror). Concepts are not winnable, so the war becomes never ending. This is important because we have a tradition of giving up rights in war time. Especially 4th amendment rights.
In Langerwerf's book, the police circled his breeding facility in alabama with helicopters and then came to visit him and have a look around.
I live in a rural area. Small town America, lots and lots of veterans here. My kids elementary school was small enough that everyone knew everyone else- teachers knew the kids of all grades and the families. Our county high school is pretty small compared to where I grew up, and I grew up in an area my wife's family thinks of as small. Yet a few times per school year, the police come in with dogs, round the kids up (including mine who are at the top of their class) and move them to the gymnasium to be lined up, questioned, sniffed and inspected, bags opened on request and the police take the dogs down the hallways and sniff lockers and they search the classrooms. In small town america. My grandfather if he were alive would be furious and amazed at how much we have become like socialist europe. In fact these days, socialist europe seems to have more freedom in many ways. Yet we have all been trained and conditioned to peacefully live and accept it with a smile, and we do. I'm no different- I go along to get along. But at least I don't vote for the guys that trample on my rights.
