Quoted:
OK GD...an employee of mine (actually an employee of a family business) was arrested Tuesday night. Cliffs notes: Employee had a small criminal record - nothing serious - a juvenile arrest years ago for evading police or something. Not sure of exact charges, but it was when he was a kid. Not sure how that record plays into this, but it must have. Anyway, Tuesday night, our parking lot was SWARMED by 20 police cars, and multiple FBI cars. Full raid. Scared the hell out of everyone, and they were really forceful with this employee. What happened was, he went to a local hardware store and purchased a pressure canner for his elderly, disabled MOTHER. Her hobby is canning. It appears like the owner or manager of the hardware store got a bad vibe, and called police. They also raided the poor little old disabled lady's home, scared the hell out of her, and guess what... FOUND NOTHING. No bomb making materials. No evil doings at all. HOLY SHIT I AM PISSED. How does the FBI and NYSP raid a business and a home based on the purchase of a pressure canner??? There HAS to be more to the story, but I am not finding it. I don't think the employee made any threats or demonstrated any dangerous behavior. He was a normal guy. What the hell is going on in this country. And before you bash NY, this could have happened in ANY state. The FBI is out of control, as are state police. Nope, NOTHING more to the story than this. All the facts are presented here. |

Welcome to 2013. It has been a police state in this country for a while but now there are many more specific actions to note and use as evidence in saying so. There used to be a time when people minded their own business and actually lived and enjoyed their lives...

That sounds like something that could be resolved with a friendly knock on the door. Unless there are other details, that is absurd.
How much time between when he bought it and when he was swarmed? |

LoL law enforcement (was a law even broken?) is always behind the game. Always reactionary.
They'll never raid somebody's house for sporks until its too late. |

Positive spin- I can only hope if they ever come for me it happens at work as well.
Perhaps this means they are learning. Why cause another Waco/Ruby Ridge when you dont have to. Even when the suspect is innocent. |

Anytime a bad person misuses (OBJECT), it will immediately follow that (OBJECT) will be banned or those purchasing (OBJECT) will be subject to suspicion.

Even if there is more to the story...how can the FBI and NYSP do all this and be SO wrong??? |
