  2. Zero fucks given for the DEA agent. Same as for any FedGov three-letter agency employee.

  3. A routine search? For money? I call bullshit on that but then again, I call bullshit on EVERYTHING the government says.

    So there’s that.

    The last time I was on a train that was being searched by the police was in Mexico back in the 70s. I don’t know what the fuck the guy(I can still see his face about 3 inches from mine) was saying to me but $20 magically took care of the problem.

    Since when can the DEA just start searching you and your shit? And now the DOJ is going to start going after parents that voice their opinions at school board meeting. I think all these alphabet agencies are watching Australia and just drooling at the thought of doing that shit here. To us.

  5. What would they have done if they found an illegal alien with drugs? Wouldn’t government policy tell them to the people go? Same with weapons. The government is only interested in disarming law-abiding citizens.

  6. I think this is one of the most vital info for me.

  7. Some part of Heimatschutz allows for a LEO “anything goes” attitude within something like 50 miles of the border. They shake people down for no reason whatsoever.
    I-10 East of EP is a fed sideshow all the time.
