Now all restraints for government spies are off. No oversight. No need to explain why spying is taking place.
Heck, why don’t they just pass a proactive search warrant against every American, allowing the government ahead of time to spy on us whenever they want, on the presumption that we all could be terrorists?
Oh, wait. That’s exactly what the Senate just did.
Why isn’t the little guy getting busted for dope in the picture? You know that’s what’s going to happen in real life. They can use anything they find in a court of law, as long as the reason they went in there in the first place is to look for terrorism.
That means if someone in the government is pissed at you, they can get someone to go in there “by accident” looking for terrorists at the wrong address, discover (or plant) dope, then bust you for possession. Viola! You’re on ice. You don’t even know who your enemy is, since there’s no warrant, no paper trail.
Actually, you’re on the right track. It’s already been revealed that Bush was using warrantless wiretapping powers before September 11, 2001. His target: drugs.
Of course the idea of the pig not getting busted for the dope could also be a way of commenting on the incompetency of the federal government, even though is has passed these new laws eradicating our freedoms.

Why is the little guy holding his cigarette like that?

Because the only way not to notice what’s happening to our freedom these days is to be doped up.

You would think the G-man would confiscate the dope to smoke for himself. Unless he’s already too high to notice.

Oh, he’s just high on Homeland Security!
