That's definitely far fetched. They will almost certainly not be wearing knee high boots. The rest is beginning to seem more likely all the time. Homeland Security, and as CJ mentioned, the Patriot Act, suggest to me that the government is encroaching more and more aggressively on the rights and liberties which we have come to take for granted. If we continue to assume that the government is benevolent and will always act in our best interest, we will forfeit said rights and liberties. It's easy and tempting to sit back and say that "they" will never let that happen, but "they" is us.
