Three States Subjected To “Martial Law Sweeps”
Federal law enforcement agencies co-opted sheriffs offices as well state and local police forces in three states last weekend for a vast round up operation that one sheriff’s deputy has described as "martial law training".
Law-enforcement agencies in Tennessee, Mississippi and Arkansas took part in what was described by local media as "an anti-crime and anti-terrorism initiative" involving officers from more than 50 federal, state and local agencies.
Given the military style name "Operation Sudden Impact", the initiative saw officers from six counties rounding up fugitives, conducting traffic checkpoints, climbing on boats on the Mississippi River and doing other "crime-abatement" programs all under the label of "anti-terrorism".
WREG Memphis news channel 3 reported that the Sheriff’s Department arrested 332 people, 142 of whom were fugitives, or "terrorists" as they now seem to be known.
Hundreds of dollars were seized and drugs recovered, and 1,292 traffic violations were handed out to speeding terrorists and illegally parked terrorists.

Why do liberals get so upset when law enforcement agencies work together and round up FUGITIVES? Is it guilty conscience?

The link is not working dirtyp. I would really like to see the report can you try again with the link , please?
And teak you slave to the establishment.
Checkpoints are not the American way.
Busting men with a few beers in their cooler fishing on a lake are not the American way.
Rousting Citizens in vehicle checks and handing out $100 tickets because the license plate light is burnt out is not the American way.
Geez Teak why don't you move to China already? It sounds like you like having the government tell you when you can wipe your butt. People like you belong in China.

Sort of the whole contradiction behind the left these days.
Unfortunately, it is also the same contradiction behind the right these days.
Both side what the government to have more power, their only difference is what they the government to have power over.
And the stupidity of BOTH sides is that they haven't figured out that in this game, the government will get both sets of powers, and the slaves on either side will get little in return.
