More on ODA's Manna Storehouse raid
http://thebovine.wordpress.com/2008/12/04/more-on-the-oda-manna-storehouse-raid/

This sort of thing isn't confined to food co-ops. Anyone who comes on the radar of federal agencies for any reason risks this kind of treatment. There are horror stories of retired couples who sank their entire savings into a sailboat, with the intention of cruising for the rest of their lives, losing their boat and all their personal possessions because they were perceived to be traveling from Belize or another of the Central or South American countries that export drugs by boat. By the time they were able to prove that they were innocent Americans doing nothing wrong, their boats were so damaged that they weren't seaworthy, and nothing of any value was left aboard. This is piracy, and the Manna Storehouse raid is just the dry land version of it.
