Since 9/11 federal government established across
the nation a large number of Fusion Centers. Fusion Centers were originally
established to improve the sharing of anti-terrorism intelligence among
different state, local and federal law enforcement agencies. (But since
expanded to pursue all crimes and hazards.) Fusion Centers now pursue for
analysis not just criminal and terrorist information, but any information that
can be derived from police, public records and private sector data about
Americans. Fusion Centers increasingly involve components of the U.S. Military
in addition to other government entities to spy on Citizens. The centers
heavily rely on local “informants” for information that is shared with Local,
State, and Federal police agencies. Recently the Department of Homeland
Security began sharing more classified Military information with local Fusion
Centers, perhaps a mistake, not all local police keep secrets.
Fusion Centers circumvent Fourth Amendment Constitutional protections
that prohibit illegal search and seizure, by taking advantage of ambiguous
lines of authority to manipulate differences in federal, state and local laws
to maximize information collection. Increasingly (private security companies
and their operatives) work so closely with local/federal law enforcement and
Fusion Centers—providing and exchanging information about Americans, they
appear to (merge) with police. That is what happened in Germany during the
1930’s when a private-Gestapo merged its operations with German Federal Police.
Subsequently Germany in 1939 placed all German Police agencies including the
Gestapo under the control of the "Reich Main Security Office” the
equivalent of U.S. Homeland Security. Interestingly a Rand Report prepared for
the Army, recently made public, appears to suggest that U.S. Government develop
a Local, State and Federal U.S. "National Police Stabilization Force merging
State law enforcement with the Feds. What could happen to State Rights and what
Laws and Jurisdiction would be used to prosecute state Citizens arrested by a
National Police Stabilization Force? A National Police Force could potentially
be sent by the President into any State with the approval of its governor,
against the wishes of its Citizens? To clarify the Rand Corporation report
visit:
Just recently Pres. Obama's signed Executive Order EO 12425 that put
INTERPOL above the United States Constitution. Obama’s Executive Order
authorized INTERPOL to act within the United States without being subject to
4th Amendment Search and Seizure laws. It would appear INTERPOL may now tap
American phones and emails without a warrant. And that U.S. Police can use
INTERPOL to circumvent the Fourth Amendment to arrest Americans and or forfeit
their property by bringing INTERPOL into a criminal or civil investigation.
Government can too easily take an innocent person’s hastily written email, fax
or phone call out of context to allege “suspicious activity” or that a crime or
violation was committed to cause an arrest or Civil Asset Forfeiture.
