Supposedly they had warrants, given on the presentation of credible evidence. Yet in searching five residences and one office, there were no arrests? That doesn't sound like "credible evidence" to me. Sounds more like a judge is willing to lay their own credibility on the line to allow the FBI to harrass and impair freedom of speech.
I've never heard of Burke or his group. I have seen this sort of behavior throughout our nation's history, however, and I think it's ugly. This has all the makings of another potential Kent State massacre in the making. Whether or not anyone is shot this time around isn't the point. The point is that dissent against pretty much anything (government, the war, the action of a judge) is our First Amendment right. Dissent itself is NOT grounds for violating our Fourth Amendment rights.
