The Truth Is Out There
Members of the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force raided the home of Nevada resident Chuck Clark. The warrants were sealed, and the government isn't talking. But local media outlets are reporting that the raid was triggered by Clark's efforts to photograph sensors placed on public lands around the infamous Area 51. Clark, who hasn't been charged with any crime, says he isn't a terrorist. He's angry that citizens are being monitored by the military on public land, miles from the well-marked boundaries of the base. "It's overkill in my opinion," he told a local TV station. "They have a 25-mile buffer zone around the base. Why they have to put stuff outside the line really escapes me."
