Interesting long time lurkers making their debuts in this thread lol
Guys let me make it clear, outside of the scope questioning nothing else was questioned. What went beyond was all my part in terms of friendly talk. Maybe I didn’t make it obvious enough. So the conspiracy theories on them wanting to know my favorite cereal, if I even like long walks on the beach, mayo or miracle whip on my sandwich is a bit extreme. I’m no an engineer for nasa but I’m also no dumb dumb. Just went thru my investigation for MSP for my CC permit might as well get investigated by the feds while I’m at it..
I went it into the interview already assuming they knew all the answers to all the questions.. it’s HSI, pretty sure enough money has been thrown there way to know a little about everyone with current technology.
Social media alone already has plenty of info about you whether you like it or not, selling it to any company for pennies..
I am a firm believer over the next 10-20yrs absolutely nothing will be of secret, cameras everywhere be it dash cams, smart tv’s, activating your smartphone cam, gps tabs on your entire life via cell phone/smart watches/vehicle gps, drones/blimps, so on and so forth will be the norm. We will see a lot more examples of folks rights being infringed on in the name of protecting the public. It’s up to us to reverse it and go back to following our constitution, holding people like James Clapper responsible to the fullest extent of the law would be a good start

That's kind of the point and the mark of a good interviewer. You're in control of the discussion. You're talking about mundane day-to-day stuff. You even mention the weather once or twice. Pretty soon you're complaining about Maryland laws, handgun rosters, magazine pinning, wait times and out of state FFL’s avoiding Marylanders........etcWhat went beyond was all my part in terms of friendly talk.
Good "investigating" practices and interviewing techniques have gone passed theory and are regularly put in to practice.Maybe I didn’t make it obvious enough.

You're about 10-20 years too late with your prediction.I am a firm believer over the next 10-20yrs absolutely nothing will be of secret, cameras everywhere be it dash cams, smart tv’s, activating your smartphone cam, gps tabs on your entire life via cell phone/smart watches/vehicle gps, drones/blimps, so on and so forth will be the norm.
Look Mister, I'm not trying to bust your balls here. You did exactly what 99% of your neighbors would do. What they have been taught to do.It’s up to us to reverse it and go back to following our constitution, holding people like James Clapper responsible to the fullest extent of the law would be a good start
Maybe they were secretly investigating 922r compliance.

That’s how I knew about it - not everything interests me but this topic did.
OP: Making debut? Why are you defensive? Obviously you made it public so you’re going to receive critiques and opinions etc. sheesh if you didn’t want any of this, you shouldn’t have posted. A lot of members were triggered by the topic via email and made very good valid posts. Maybe its my second post but it doesn’t mean I’m a newb. I don’t even read much here but I do enjoy good topic(s) such as this.

However, you're not going to get to hold Clapper responsible to the fullest extent of the law. What you can do, is make it closer to the norm for 99% of your neighbors to say "come back with a warrant".
If you want the Constitution to be followed, simply exercise your rights thereof. Do it often, and especially do it when the situation in your doing so makes you "the bad guy".
Please search youtube for "James Duane", "Dont talk to the police"
They were "friendly and a pleasure to talk to" because in their experience as LEO people do a better job of giving them incriminating tidbits to use against them. Works better than thumbscrews and shouting.
Cops put together puzzles. Sometimes their puzzle pictures are 100% BS. a la Duane, they could have had a 99% complete idea in their heads that was completely false, and you willingly gave them some perfectly innocent tidbit that "completed the picture."
What chills me about your account is that they didnt need to drive all the way to your house to see what you bought on ebay, they can go to ebay for that. Payment information, ditto, bank/paypal will cough that up gladly. USPS/UPS/FEDEX, same. Asking you things they could get (indeed probably already got and this was a "pop quiz" to see if you would diverge. Again, "James Duane Dont talk to cops"
Anyone remember Gunpal? A short lived pay site for facilitating purchases of firearms?
All kinds of problems
OP:
>Don’t tread on me, unless you’re nice about it and I don’t have anything to hide
I’m sure you would have did your best impression of Rambo or Die Hard if this took place at your house, ain’t that right?
I was thinking if I get another post out of you in this thread, I’ll make up for nearly 17% of your lifetime post since May of 2017. I’m no HSI agent but I think I know why you picked your screen name

This country is where it is because people keep bending over and spreading them for these piece of shit statists.
If more people would use the word NO, we wouldn't be so far down the road to totalitarian no consequences government.
The boomer generation ruined this country. All the rights and treasure lost forever to get them dopers and kid touchers.
I must have missed all the asterisks in the constitution and the * saying "except for the common good and public safety"
1st, 2nd, 4th, etc. They might as well be toilet paper.
A reiteration to the OP. Thanks again for posting. Thanks again for your patience and class when dealing with anything but from many "contributors."
