Martial law is on the horizon. New information about the FEMA camps sprinkle the American landscape. The brand new 45 billion dollar illegal spy program monitors American citizens daily movement and every digital transaction they make. Cameras record your day-to-day activities while facial recognition technology scan and detect, all done in the name of fighting a faceless enemy who can never be caught. Welcome to the AMERICAN POLICE STATE. And this Thursday morning in District Heights, Maryland, a FBI swat team rushed into the home of an average, innocent family and shot at an unarmed, 18-year-old girl. Next time it could be YOUR HOME, because they really don`t seem to have any discernment at all!
According to ABC News:
“An early morning FBI raid has a District Heights family in fear. The agents came into the house and drew their guns at the family’s daughter, but she wasn’t armed.
“They almost hit my daughter, man,” says Emory Hughley. “If I hadn’t told her to go back in her room they probably would have shot her.”
Hughley says he was asleep in the basement when he heard a bang at the front door. His 18-year-old daughter Myasia was upstairs in her room with two friends who were spending the night. Around 6 a.m. he says he came up to the living room and saw 15 FBI SWAT agents coming inside, guns drawn.
“I’m shouting ‘Nobody is armed, nobody has a gun!’ and then all of a sudden I heard ‘She’s got a gun!’ and they just opened fire,” he says.
Hughley says he looked up and saw his daughter standing outside her bedroom in the hallway. Then he heard gunfire.
“I’ve got eight holes in my wall. One bullet went past my head, almost hit me, ricocheted off my brick wall and some of the sharp metal hit my little daughter in the back of her neck, all for nothing.” says Hughley.”
It’s unclear what led the FBI to believe she had a weapon. Myasia was taken to a hospital for the flesh wound and then released. It’s believed that one agent fired multiple times at the teen in the living room. There are several bullet holes in the house, according to reports. But there are differing accounts of what happened. A Baltimore field agent for the FBI told the Washington Post that the teen’s injury was caused by a fall, not gunfire. So…were these some trigger happy agents with no thought process and lack of concern for innocent people? I find it pretty unbelievable that FBI agents would make this kind of “mistake.” I was under the impression that FBI agents must qualify with their firearms 8 times a year. Compare that to DC cops who only need to do so 2 times per year. If a FBI agent is armed with a non-standard weapon for an undercover operation, they must first qualify with that weapon as well, it`s almost the same in any country. I honestly don’t know what to believe about this one. There are not enough facts either way to decide who’s at fault. It’s too soon to know for certain what really happened here, and the family and the whole neighborhood is stunned and traumatized by the attack, and the FBI has given no explanation aside from saying that they were “exercising a search warrant” The girls mother is still demanding answers,
“They tried to kill her,” she said. “They tried to kill my daughter.” 18 year old Myasia has since been treated and released from the hospital and has now fully recovered.
More raids to come!
