In defense of our great nation's Honeybaked Ham stores, the Department of Homeland Security is on the job! Beware, nefarious vegetarian no-goodniks, for your evil plot to picket outside carniverous establishments has been uncovered:
For example, more than two dozen government surveillance photographs show 22-year-old Caitlin Childs of Atlanta, a strict vegetarian, and other vegans picketing against meat eating, in December 2003. They staged their protest outside a HoneyBaked Ham store on Buford Highway in DeKalb County.
Government photos of Caitlin Childs, terrorizing one ham at a time.
An undercover DeKalb County Homeland Security detective was assigned to conduct surveillance of the protest and the protestors, and take the photographs.
The detective arrested Childs and another protester after he saw Childs approach him and write down, on a piece of paper, the license plate number of his unmarked government car. “They told me if I didn’t give over the piece of paper I would go to jail and I refused and I went to jail, and the piece of paper was taken away from me at the jail and the officer who transferred me said that was why I was arrested,” Childs said on Wednesday.
As for Caitlin Childs’ protest against meat eating, the files obtained by the ACLU include the DeKalb County Homeland Security report on the surveillance of Childs and the others. The detective wrote that he ordered Childs to give him the piece of paper on which she had written his license tag number, telling her that he did not want her or anyone else to have the tag number of his undercover vehicle.
The detective did not comment in his report about why his license tag number was already visible to the public.
Take that hippy pig-huggers!

Well all I can say is that I feel much safer at night knowing that America's ham industry is safe. Do the agents of the HSD really have this much spare time on their hands? If so, maybe we should all invest in buying them some nice video games to play with instead. I'm thinking one of those sets of Solitaire games. Should keep 'em busy for at least a bit. Or maybe crossword puzzles...
Or perhaps we should all join hands and recite General J.C. Christian's prayer:
Lord, please bless the State Security Apparatus, that it might conduct it's wiretaps to the best of its abilities. Provide Our Leader with the ability to look into our bedrooms, so that He might catch French politicians putting their little soldiers in ladies' mouths and watch celebrities doing it. And Lord, let him share those videos with godly men like myself, who may then rail against these evils from our pulpits.
And bless our interrogators and their glowsticks and electrified nipple clamps of freedom. Provide them with the ability to induce pain as close as possible to that experienced during organ failure without quite equaling it.
And give us the ability to kill brown people more efficiently, so that our contractors may garner more fruit from their labor.
Amen.
