The sad part is that our representatives in Congress react more strongly when the office of one of their own being raided by the FBI than they do to all the infringements on the freedoms of us citizens * wiretapping, phone records, international bank transactions, etc.   I don't actually oppose the use of any of these investigative tools.  What scares me shitless is that it is all being done without court oversight.  It's too much like the typical scenario in the rise of a dictator.  The Germans didn't appreciate what was happening when Hitler took power.  I hope it never happens here.

The time was when a local police chief, who we could be rid of, could do 
things now prohibited except for the feds, who we have little say about.
I wish to courts had left the few bad apples to be dealt with locally.

I'd much rather have a bad local administrator that lives down the block 
and I can lay hands on than one distant and isolated.
