Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

:eek:Holy Crap! I could not believe the number of vehicles/acronyms lined up on a rural highway to arrest ONE man. Here is the WSJ basic info on the bust.
Sad that this area of the country has a reputation for this kind of bullshit, but still… 50+ vehicles/firetrucks/paddy wagons/bomb disposal units representing at least 6 different law enforcement agencies (FBI/ATF/Homeland Security/Something something domestic terrorism/State Patrol/Sheriff) to arrest ONE man and search ONE house.

This may not by MPSIMS, or may turn into something else. If so, Moderators, move at will.

Replaced link in the OP with the correct one.

Well, hell. Domestic terror? I’d have sent the alphabet after him too. The Branch Davidian case showed the risks of going in under-prepared against armed fanatics.
