Now we ALL know that those stand up guys in law enforcement would never
violate the law. All this stuff about Ruby Ridge and Waco is just Liberal
propaganda!
Actually, I don't think the gummint folks need to resort to anything as
devious as a virus. They probably would just use BO2K or the equivalent
Micky$loth product. Much more likely though is what they usually do, break
down the door, confiscate everything and look at it at their leisure.
