Hakim Aziz is seldom hesitant about making radical pronouncements, but when two U.S. Secret Service agents showed up at his doorstep at 10:30 on the night of April 7, he was meek as a lamb. He'd just put his two daughters to bed, and his wife looked on as the two agents asked if they could search the house. Aziz says he didn't have much choice.

"They made it plain to me early on that 'because of this ten-year-old bench warrant that you didn't take care of, we can just haul you in and make you sit until Perry County comes to get you, which may be never,'" the 42-year-old Aziz recalls the agents saying. "I think they pretty much knew that I was going to do whatever it took to keep from being hauled in that night."

Accompanied by three St. Louis cops, the khaki-clad Secret Service agents sifted through Aziz's files and books. Picking up a copy of Muammar Qadhafi's Third Universal Theory, one of the agents asked Aziz if he admired the Libyan strongman.

"I just couldn't believe they were questioning what I felt," says Aziz. "I was still in shock."
