Law Enforcement Makes Citizens Nervous

Just doing their job, the FBI has been knocking on doors and making the news. Anticipating unrest later this month during the Republican National Convention in New York, FBI agents have been questioning people (and even subpoenaing) about their plans for the convention. All this was "within the law" according to officals.
A little less clear is why the Florida State Department of Law Enforcement is questioning elderly black absentee voters in Florida about a vague investigation. This has frightened some voters and cast a chill over get out the vote activists in the community who fear they may become a target of an investigation. Authorities have declined to comment on the nature of the investigation.
