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.
