Carson, my guess is that the policy the FBI agent was referring to is the now widespread practice of over-utilizing paramilitary SWAT teams for law enforcement. It is precisely this which is bringing about so many unnecessary deaths and abuses in police encounters with citizens across the country.

Keep in mind that these kinds of overkill tactics have been used nationally against fathers for no other reason than being in arrears on State ordered child support payments.

Unless something DRASTIC changes in both public understanding/perception and also in relevant legislation, my guess is that we’ll see progressively more government abuse of fathers for this and similar reasons.

And just like we are probably about to see with people such as Ed and Elaine Brown, there will be many convenient official explanations for the necessity of such abuses of police and government power against “deadbeat” fathers. The national news media will be a willing accomplice every step of the way.

All so terribly predictable.

When I was in Boy Scouts an FBI agent visited us and told us a great story about the last couple of gun battles they had with gangsters in houses. He explained he didn’t think they would have more like those because they had adopted a new policy. He didn’t really explain the policy more than he wasn’t really in favor of it. I think he was looking forward to retiring.

From that time on every stand off I have ever seen ends in the occupants being burned to death. Sure the is always a lame explanation. Have you ever seen the flames that come out of a tear gas canister? Most all of us have see the result of petroleum products being pumped into a compound.

Another example of government abuse of American citizens. The government WILL win the standoff, naturally. They would like nothing more than an excuse for their gun barrels to start blazing which in turn would trigger the State propaganda machine to kick out a nice tidy story about how armed IRS agents had to “defend” themselves against this “dangerous” couple, Ed and Elaine Brown.

It is absolutely guaranteed that government spinmeisters are already looking for dirt on these people, ANY dirt, no matter how insignificant, that they can use to spin a story to justify their actions when it becomes necessary.

And when they do, the media and the whole credulous American public will fall for it, very few eyebrows will raise, and it will be business as usual.
