Lucianne.com provided a link to an article in the Washington Times concerning the counterterrorism unit of the Los Angeles Police Department. For a liberal city in a liberal state, I find it interesting they are still doing this:

Los Angeles has one of the few big-city police departments with a dedicated counterterrorism intelligence program.

The LAPD started doing this kind of counterterrorism work nearly 100 years ago. My father, who had friends on the force, told stories of the unit tracking various Communist fronts in the LA area in the 1920s. Tracking them and arranging for them to be disrupted.
