Hi Eric,

Believe it or not, our neighborhood was a pretty bad one years
ago, just because of some of the people living in one house
across the street.

One time the police came after one of the people that was over there.
I was at work, but my sister and her boyfriend were here at the time.
The SWAT team came and made them leave the house and were
using our front windows to aim from. No shots were ever fired and
I didn't even hear about it until I got home from work.

If the local police can do it, I would guess the federal government
must have some provision that allows them to do what they must,
when they must, also.

Best Regards
