Yay! I for one am looking forward to Bush taking over as tyrant of America and imposinga police-state. Who's with me?

Yes, because Bush somehow got power over the two other branches of government.

The dude being a Korean war veteran is completely irrelevant.

What about all of us that aren't war veterans? Are we somehow more legitimately suspicious than veterans?

This was a hardly a police state issue ordered by the president... They said in the article the news station seems to be extremely unpopular to the conservation area it reaches, my guess is unhappy listeners were calling in phony calls to the police to give them some reason to be looking for illegal substances on his property. He didn't get arrested so i don;t really see what the issue was.

Mort-Hog, indeed you are correct on that part about vets. On average people who fought in BIG past wars, WW2, Vietnam and Korean are looked at with a "higher" respect than just people who served in the armed forces.

The guy is 77. What's to say that them storming his property like that without a warrant, he doesn't have a heart attack?

I'm skeptical of any news published exclusively by an outlet with an @aol.com e-mail address.

Our tax dollars at work. :rolleyes: Morons.

On the other hand, I doubt this actually happed. You'd see CNN et. all gleefully reporting on it for the next 10 years.

The Bush thing and the raid are coincidence.

I love situations like this. Just a worthless article with no real reliability whatsoever and people are immediately placing it as irrefutable evidence that the US is an Imperialistic piece of trash. Not very mature...

hahaha, I love the diction in this. The eight "heavy-handed looking group of law enforcement thugs" didn't just enter his property, they 'swarmed'. I'm sorry, but I can't imagine eight guys 'swarming' anything.

If you can notice, I wasn't directing it towards "most of the people in this thread."

I was obviously directing it towards those who were spouting off as if it were reliable information, what part makes you think otherwise?...

It never happened, he was smoking pot at the time, and never called bush, he called another guy and called him a liar...
Nothing to see here, move along.
