Yep, that's what
Instapundit is reporting, via a link to the
Baltimore Sun.
Vendors at the Patapsco Flea Market have a history of allegedly selling
counterfeit and pirated merchandise, according to an affidavit, which
outlined the latest accusation that resulted in a raid Sunday by federal
Homeland Security Investigations special agents.
Capping a 2 1/2-year-long investigation into counterfeit apparel and
accessories as well as pirated DVDs and musical recordings, federal
investigators confiscated numerous items being sold there.
Insty closes with a worthy observation, one I've been pushing for awhile. If Homeland Security is concerned with counterfeit merchandise, we don't have a terrorist problem.
Abolish the Department of Homeland Security. If they’ve got time for this crap, we don’t have a terrorist problem anymore.
Amen, brother. Homeland Security is long overdue for a wing-clipping.
It does no good to round up a few flea market sellers. They need to stop it at the border when the stuff is in containers. Oh yeah, they don't have enough agents to do that.
