About a month ago, EPA regional official Al Armendariz made news when a YouTube video of him describing the way the agency handles oil and gas companies surfaced. In it, Armendariz said an analogy he liked to use about enforcement was how the Romans used crucifixion to keep smaller towns and villages under their thumb. Since then, Armendariz has resigned his post at the EPA. Case closed, right? Wrong.

On May 2nd, just a little over a week after the Armendariz crucify comments had flared up, two special agents from the EPA and a local police officer showed up at Mr. Keller’s home. Here is the story in his own words:

On Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at about 1:45PM two Special Agents from the EPA and an armed police officer who stood 6’6” tall visited our house in Asheville, NC. Their visit was a total surprise as we had not received any communications requesting an appointment. The agents presented very official looking badges and asked if we could sit and chat awhile. We moved to the back porch and took our seats with the exception of the armed officer who stood by the door to the house the entire time.

The EPA has become an agency like the Gestapo that rules without rules.

Intimidation was what the Nazis initially used to get people to 'fall in step' with them. It does not surprise me that 'alleged' Special Agents from the EPA were out of business cards and left without giving full identification/contact information. I suspect they may have tried to intimidate the wrong person. Here's the link for the full article: http://epaabuse.com/7259/news...

Very interesting. Next, we'll see armed FDA agents making SWAT raids on Amish farmers... oh, that's already happened.

Is it any wonder that government agencies achieve the exact opposite of what they "intend". Did you know the EPA sold out energy star labels to anyone who paid for it regardless of the products efficiency.

The EPA, IRS, both DOE's and all the rest of the alphabet agencies need to go away. This is how socialists operate, not a free society.

The EPA felt threatened because they know they are well deserving of threats.What is really outrageous if that the only ones who used and bragged about their terrorism was the EPA.
It is amazing they didn't use an EPA SWAT team.

Hey Americans....you have got real big problems here. Did I not here someone sing about the "Land of the free and home of the brave". Hey seriously what is happening here is like something out of the old KGB manual. Because, from away over here you folks don't sound very free at all.

We aren't. Looking up what country spies on their citizens the most, our two countries were the worst two among the western countries. They both rank right up there with such notables as Russia, China and Somalia...sad, isn't it?

So my first question is, is this even true regardless of the possible details and other side of the story.... Do we have corroborating evidence and independent witnesses?
