What's incredible? Helping enforce the export laws of an ally? Or the fact that the Justice Dept should try enforcing domestic laws (like immigration) before worrying about this sort of thing? If the latter, I agree with you.

this whole raid, search and seizure deal is totally out of control on all levels of government.

the average person has no idea the crap the government can pull, and once they seize an asset, for all intent and purpose, it's theirs. the cost of defense and getting assets back are prohibitive.

they know you can't fight them, and they take advantage of every situations. these "feds" are not the good guys wearing the white hats. they are the gangsters of today.
