Homeland Security Department a precursor to national police force

To the editor:
It is a dangerous idea to restructure the federal government in a way that could hasten the establishment of a domestic police state. Clearly the proposed Homeland Security Department would increasingly transform local, state and federal law enforcement agencies into a national police force.
In order to preserve our American system of independent, local police, which is the foundation of our freedom as Americans, we must insist that our representatives and senators vote no on the Homeland Security Department.
Please contact those in your area and let them know how you feel and that protection is one thing at the local level but federal police state we do no need or want.
