People are saying that the FBI raid on Mark Houck's house was a monstrous act of political intimidation, turning a minor scuffle outside an abortion clinic, dismissed by the local authorities, into a federal case.
This is not true. The FBI knows what's what. The truth is that Houck has stolen the Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator. That Catholic has stolen the Space Modulator!
And that is why AG Garland got out the Instant FBI Agents (just add water), and sent them on the hunt. He was very angry. He was very angry indeed.
It was not pressed by local authorities
The court case fell through when the plaintiff didn't bother to show up
There was no obstruction of the abortuary
The man had agreed to give himself over
The whole thing was MEANT to put the fear of the Federal Inquisition into the hearts of abortion protestors. The man was no threat to anybody. He was not Jimmy Hoffa. He was not Dutch Schultz. He was not Pretty Boy Floyd. He was an ordinary guy praying a rosary outside of an abortion clinic, when he got into a set-to with an obnoxious jerk. And if he himself is an obnoxious jerk, which I doubt, I do not see the federal law against being an obnoxious jerk, and I do not see what in the hell the FBI has to do with it.
Go to ANY dive in a big city in the USA, and on a single weekend you'll see a lot worse than the man was even accused of doing.
