Civilan Spy Programs

The Federal government is fast approaching it plan of unifying local Police, Fire and Rescue,  State Police, and all departments of the homeland security  whose underpinnings are the new Civilian spy  programs.   This marriage of Federal and Civilian  domestic spying is being called..."Threat fusion centers" which integrates real time data from public and private sources.
