According to World News Daily:
A Louisiana driver was stopped and detained for having a "Don't Tread on Me" bumper sticker on his vehicle and warned by a police officer about the "subversive" message it sent, according to the driver's relative.
The situation developed in the small town of Ball, La., where a receptionist at the police department told WND she knew nothing about the traffic stop, during which the "suspect" was investigated for "extremist" activities, the relative said.
A man identifying himself as a police officer from Ball called WND later to report that the town's records of traffic stops did not include this situation. He suggested it might have involved one of several other agencies that work in the area.
It followed by only a few weeks the release of a Department of Homeland Security report, "Right-wing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment", which prompted outrage from legislators and a campaign calling for the resignation of DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano.
The report, which cites individuals who sport certain bumper stickers on their vehicles as suspect, was delivered to tens of thousands of local law enforcement officers across the nation.
We have woken up and do not recognize our country. When will enough be enough? How far must political correctness and extreme politics go before people rise up and demand freedom?
Say bye bye to your freedom. If the Department of Homeland Security guidelines are followed, then the entire Southeastern U.S. is a threat to national security (except for West Palm Beach of course). Are we headed for the thought police? Where is the 1st Amendment? This driver should sue the police officer for violation of his civil rights. How is this stop any different from stopping someone because they are Black? Or Arab? Or Latino? If the police, the government can do this to this person, they'll do it to anyone who doesn't agree with them.
