I will confirm it for you.
This started in the Spring of 2007 when George Bush notified the leaders of major metro departments at the annual Chiefs of Police Conference in Tacoma, Wa that he wanted to target all 3rd party candidates, supporters, and those making donations as enemies of the state.
Subsequently, the word was spread back at the state and local level to "turn up the heat". This came down in written memos dispersed throughout our department and every department in the US that any arrest, citation, or other enforcement action shall be taken authority the Chief and the President.
Initially, we were given a "hit List" of who these people were, home addresses and work locations. We began a systematic enforcement targeting of these people. As we gathered intelligence during the 2008 campaign, arrests/interviews and traffic stops, the web spread and we were able to target more people.
Thanks to the infusion of cash from the court cases, tickets and fines we were able to add Black Helicopters to our arsenal and began a more in depth tracking of these 3rd Party Candidates, aka domestic terrorists.
The entire operation was shut down in October 2008 due to a trivial incident. An officer in Watahochee, Indiana had stopped a Ron Paul supporter for suspected DUI. This turned out to be a shaky arrest and the case was lost after a fast and speedy trial. The officer was then sued by the defendant over a civil issue. Apparently, the defendant had been wearing an aluminum hat to protect himself from our spy satellites. The officer, not having read the intelligence memo, failed to follow procedure of photograph, confiscate, turn into the property room. Instead, he through it into the trash. The defendant sued the officer for destruction of his property.
In a landmark settlement, the defendant (now plaintiff) won $300,000,000 which ended up bankrupting the entire (until now) covert operation.
Doors were closed, windows shuttered and Black Helicopters were mothballed.
Suffice it to say, your terroristic views and support of a terror driven candidate are safe.
