       Phoenix (Federal enclave of) Arizona statute enforcement officers (acting under-color-of-law) raid the home of the Reverend Michael Salman, of Harvest Christian Fellowship Community church  (a 501(c)3, government-chartered, non-profit corporation, as opposed to a new testament (First Amendment) Church).  Salman, his wife Suzanne, their five young daughters, and their visiting friends are detained for 90 minutes in the living room, while officers searched for evidence that Salman has been holding worship services on his property.  The city of Phoenix had told Salman that we had to convert his home into church property, thus making it a commercial entity; also, the city had coerced Salman into making 80,000 “dollars” in improvements to his property, and making improvements to the city-owned street, moving a fire hydrant, and giving land to the city.  Not one complaint had been made against Salman.

      NOTE: One of the visiting friends was Sam Atallah, a native born Syrian, and Sunni (legacy of Mohammed) Moslem convert to Christianity, was shocked at the way peaceful people were being treated by their own government.
