"Cindy Archer, one of the lead architects of Wisconsin�s Act 10... was jolted awake by yelling, loud pounding at the door, and her dogs� frantic barking."

"The entire house � the windows and walls � was shaking. She looked outside to see up to a dozen police officers, yelling to open the door. They were carrying a battering ram. She wasn�t dressed, but she started to run toward the door, her body in full view of the police. Some yelled at her to grab some clothes, others yelled for her to open the door. 'I was so afraid,' she says. 'I did not know what to do.'... It was indeed a home invasion, but the people who were pouring in were Wisconsin law-enforcement officers. Armed, uniformed police swarmed into the house. Plainclothes investigators cornered her and her newly awakened family. Soon, state officials were seizing the family�s personal property, including each person�s computer and smartphone, filled with the most intimate family information...."
