I'm not big on conspiracy thinking, but gotta wonder on this

A few years back, one weekend our county was flooded with law enforcement agencies. Approximately 50 state troopers where pulled from their usual areas and check points were all over the place. I figured they were just looking for someone they really wanted and sluffed it off as nothing more.

The following week, it came out in the local paper it was what they called a 'Saturation'. All those old two lane blacktop roads, well traveled gravel roads and such had checkpoints. They filled the local hoosegow in short order with folks with warrants, drunk drivers, druggies...etc. Needless to say, the good ole' boy system did not apply that weekend...what a hoot!

Starting today, our county will once again have a saturation. But this time it has been heavily publicized by the local newspaper and local radio stations. LEO's from just about every imaginable agency in Oklahoma will be participating.

Friends, I don't mind the occasionaly suprise check point. But this time it feels different. All the publicity has people feeling we can be expect to encounter a checkpoint, or to be stopped for laws we didn't even know exist.

Guys, I'm cleaner than a hounds tooth. But this is giving me that old Big brother's out to get cha' feeling.

Your thoughts?
