To bag people who bought liquor tax free in NH and take it back to MA without paying tax. NH conveniently put these stores on the highway right at the border.

So NH started arresting and harassing the MA cops. It was very funny until Meldrim Thompson advocated for tactical nukes for the national guard. I don't think it was related, but you never know.
