> Actually, when they say “FBI Raid”, what does that even mean here? I imagine somewhere between helicopters and snipers providing overwatch while armor-clad agents kick the doors in and shout “FBI! ON THE FLOOR NOW!” and a couple of agents in slacks and polo shirts politely ringing the door bell at the time they worked out in advance when making their appointment.

I’ve heard about a couple of “raids” of auto parts suppliers from people who worked there. Despite the fact that the press always states how such-and-such three letter agency “raided” the offices of a company, what really goes on is some number of agents walk in the door, go to the reception desk with warrant/documents in hand, and say “we are here to speak with these individuals. Please get them and send everyone else home.”

there’s no rappelling down the outside walls yelling “Hut! Hut! Hut! Hut!”

Well that’s disappointing. What the heck are my tax dollars paying for if they don’t even get a few Hut Huts in?:mad:
