Were these "raids" on the Minneapolis homes legit? Who knows? I live in Minneapolis, and I'd like to believe the best about the Minneapolis P.D. Then again, as one who has a hearty skepticism towards officialdom, these "raids" could very well be a bunch of shakedown/intimidation bullshit. (I'm out of town--I'm up in Duluth--and I heard this stuff on the news. I hope Greenwald and Jane Hamsher enjoy their stay in the Twin Cities--and don't get their heads busted.)
An unrelated item: It was recently revealed that the Minneapolis police chief, Tim Dolan, was keeping his personal pet dog in the police department's K-9 kennel. Chief Dolan's salary is something like $135K a year. If he's too impoverished to care for his own dog, maybe we could take up a collection!
