Then you wouldn't mind surrendering any of the precursor chemicals/items in your house such as:
ground coffee, matches, speaker wires, cell phones, alarm clocks, kitchen timers, dried beans, dried rice, eggs, Vaseline, motor oil, urine (making urea nitrate), gasoline, nail polish remover/paint thinner (acetone), car batteries, bleach, Miracle Grow, bar soap, aspirin tablets, rust (great for incendiaries), aluminum foil/cans, string, cigarettes, clothespins, wine bottles, alcohol, peroxide, dried tea leaves, sugar, cocoa, Epsom salts, table salt, crayons, vinegar etc.....
If you are a prepper or extreme couponer....you could be made to look like a pretty dangerous nutcase. Especially if you happen to have evil "assault" rifles and a few cases of ammunition on hand.

I have stuff since I'm a prepper. I also have 0000 steel wool I needed to buff some white marks made by moisture, off a fine tabletop. If I remember right, the clerk wrote my name down and what I bought. I didn't find out until later that was because I could have made a gun silencer from that.
They can have the other stuff, but I refuse to give up my cigarettes. They cost too much to give them to a cop (who would probably smoke them).

Those dried beans are especially explosive if one prepares them with LOTS of Garlic.
Be particularly cautious when working with fresh or dried chili peppers as well...always wear rubber gloves! :-)
In combination, the above ingredients are DEADLY!
