Short story of the events of about an hour ago.
First our details.
I am staying at a friends house. Her background, shes an attorney working at some wellsfargo offices, grinding paperwork to sue many people a day,
whose houses are being foreclosed upon (personally i am ashamed of this... but its her job)
She applied for some government job. some investigator for some DEA's office somewhere to overlook drug companies or something. So many background and
medical checks are required for her, and its a long painful process (shes been at it almost 6 months now), essentially she got the job pending all
this government bureaucratic mess.
I do not have a criminal history. i dont associate with questionable people. or have been to questionable places.
However i do own and buy guns, i buy chemicals online that are legal, but dangerous (its a hobby of mine to refine silver and gold from electronic and
flatware scrap)
and i hang out on sites like this, including wikileaks, and alternative news sources.
Ok what happened just now.
This friend of mine is at work (9-5 bank hours lol) and I am home with my girlfriend visiting.
We ordered a pizza and are waiting upstairs for it while we watch tv.
she goes down to answer the door for the delivery at the exact time these 2 suited homeland security men are flashing their badges at her and asking
about the owner of the house's name.
Now my girlfriend is a little naive -.- she actually assumed these guys were salesmen.... she told them the owner is out of town and she refused to
give the owners name when they asked. They said they would return in a few days.
I do not know about whats going on downstairs, till she tells me when shes back upstairs with the pizza.
So now i am my usual paranoid self. are they here to question me? the owner? or other?
How do i handle this, i am home during the day. I will likely see them soon here.
while yes im not doing anything illegal, i know currently that dosnt matter anymore. its easy for the government to harass us anyways. Its
worrying
