Why did the Fbi come to your house?

Research and find out why...you'll be amazed.
Any links?

i'de love to believe the only reason the FBI would visit my home would be to protect other citizens, and prevent any harmful action to anyone property, private or governmental...

but the truth is, i would tend more to believe that the FBI would be sent to my home for more selfish reasons...as in, to protect themselves first, then the citizens second...

i find this video rude and disrespectful to law enforcement.

and wow, she claimed the 5th on knowledge of destruction of property...

by no means do i lie down and let myself be treated unlawfully by LEO's, but this woman LAUGHED at them, she was sarcastic, and she was rude.

when you are in a situation like that, don't be rude, and don't laugh, be straight forward and aware of the situation.

its people like that who give rightful protesters a bad name.

I think it's pretty obvious by their body language and demeanor that those agents didn't want to be there. Someone thought she needed a talking to, for whatever reason, so they called her in. When that happens, they have to send someone out to follow up. Instead of understanding that and simply answering the questions, this woman elected to be a raging b*tch. If she'd just been less paranoid, they'd have been in and out of there in three minutes.

I hope that her refusal to answer the question about knowing anything about any planned violence gets her flagged for an investigation. Even if she doesn't know of anything (and she probably doesn't), her attitude and paranoia is worthy of becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy.

A lawyer wouldn't have answered their questions like a "Jenny Mae homemaker." Too bad she didn't know they were coming in advance. She and her buds could have had a field day.
FBI : Are you terrorists ?
Gang : No
FBI : I will ask you again. Are you terrorists ?
Gang : Are you deaf ? we said no.
FBI : Do you know anyone who wants to blow things up ?
Gang : ummm the Pentagon ? Anti - abortionists.
FBI : agent. write that down as subversion under article 478 dash 12.
Gang : are we going into a special database ?
FBI : we can't reveal that.
Gang : oh boy !!!! they are going to SPY on us !!! whoopppeeeee.

The man's id said FBI, the woman's said US Marshall Attny General.

I think they both were real.

Otherwise, they could both be arrested for impersonating officers.

Afterall, their vehicle's Texas license number appears in the video.

I believe the woman who created the video did it mostly to voice her Palestine/Israel protest.

The last few minutes are nothing more than Palestine activist related info.

The two officers didn't appear to be doing anything wrong. They were simply trying to ask her if she knew of any potential threats which could be stopped before they happen. Since she is actively involved with these protests, she could easily have overheard people planning something which might cause damage to public property.
