Wonder how many taxpeasant dollars they blew on THIS particular FBLIE snipe hunt?
Preppers’ PING!!
Don’t worry they will find something. Now days the law is so complicated and so easily twisted that everyone and anyone can be found guilty of something.
I'm surprised they didn't claim they found "thousands of rounds of ammo" (aka a couple of boxes of .22LR.)
Investigators had claimed the 55-year-old was preparing for ‘an end-of-times event as prophesied by the Book of Revelations’, according to ABC News...
Is that illegal?
There should be a law, when ever they execute a search warrent for a prepper, they should have to pay the prepper 10x the value of his income for what he would be liable for if they actually found what they were looking for.
They found nothing but some buried barrels of food and five lawful weapons stored in a home safe, yet the guy is still in jail and not set for trial until July 17. Someone explain to me how that is legal?
He stockpiled guns?! HOW TERRIBLE!
But the feds stockpiling guns? Totally okay!
But we also must concern ourselves with the continued danger we face from individuals within our own borders who may be motivated by a variety of other causes from anti-government animus to racial prejudice. To that end, I am announcing today that the Department of Justice is reconstituting a committee on domestic terrorism that was first established nearly 20 years ago under my predecessor, Attorney General Janet Reno, in the aftermath of the Oklahoma City bombing. In the wake of that incident, the committee met regularly to assess and share information about such ongoing domestic terror threats.

Great intel they put together there.
The guy probably needed some help digging holes on his property, in order to bury more food. Spread a rumor to the feds, and see how quickly they dig up your property. Hopefully they won’t hold him on any bogus charges so he can make use of those holes.
From earlier articles on this those “explosive devices” were pipes that would hold a shotgun shell. In other words, a homemade shotgun, which is not illegal if the length is over something like 26.5” overall.
5 rifles in a safe and food buried around the property? Interested in the Book of Revelations?
What’s going on here is a setup by a paid goon informant who likely went out of his way to entice him to sell him the homemade shotguns. I’d like to hear a tape of just exactly was said about all that between the two - wouldn’t surprise me if it was a Randy Weaver reprise.
The point is this government infiltrated this ‘network’ of his and intentionally set out to entrap him in my opinion.
It is a painful reminder that you have to keep your mouth shut if you are ‘prepping’
So the FBI finds nothing but 5 guns locked in a safe and barrels of food and they keep this guy locked up. Why? Because it fits their prejudiced narrative that they wanted to find this guy guilty.
There you are. The Fight Club mantra is apt.
As is "loose lips sink ships". Pretty good advice to not be braggartly telling tall tales to strangers.
In this day & age, they just may very well be an 'agent'...
Arrested For Talking Too Much To Federal Rat

Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
Ass hats are too stupid to be Boy Scouts...
Snipe Hunts and Jackalope traps...
So effing what if a guy has 50 guns? Geeze, I wish.
Said he would kill gubmint agents? In what context and who cares?
It’s not like he was plotting to kill anyone.
You JBT’s are just scared that when the time comes for you, to exceed your authority and actual responsibility, you will be forced to back down.
Katrina taught us that you jerk offs think you can go house to house and “relieve” us of means and arms to protect and defend ourselves and you have no problem with what it costs to have our private property returned to us.
We are not your inferiors and our stuff belongs to us.
Something about Right to Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness comes to mind as does personal rights and property rights.
GFY and let the guy go....
Florida prepper’s home searched by FBI for explosives and 50 “assault rifles”. The FBI found stored food along with five guns in a gun safe. I am sure that the FBI will not apologize.
Nonsense. You can only use one at a time. Maybe two. Four if you have nimble toes. Five if you have well-trained genitals.
Google “gang stalking” Its what the govt does to select individuals who they want to silence or intimidate. Very illuminating.
