Arrest Preppers for Stockpiling Guns And Ammo… Facing Federal Conspiracy
Charges, by Dean James, 8/4/15
If you don’t think you’re on the government’s radar for activities
related to stockpiling food, ammunition, guns and other supplies, think again.
Three men have been
arrested by Federal agents for allegedly attempting to build and detonate
explosives. According to the report, the men were not planning to use the
explosives in an attack, but rather, were preparing for the possibility of an
armed resistance should the government declare a state of emergency under
martial law.
Three North Carolina men fearing a government takeover and martial law
stockpiled weapons, ammunition and tactical gear while attempting to rig
home-made explosives, according to charges announced by the Justice Department
on Monday.
They are accused of stockpiling guns and
ammunition, as well as attempting to manufacture pipe bombs and live grenades
from military surplus “dummy” grenades, according to the statement by Acting
U.S. District Attorney Jill Westmoreland Rose and FBI Special Agent in Charge
John Strong.
In addition to ammunition
for a .338 caliber rifle, the statement says Litteral purchased hand-held radios, Kevlar
helmets, body armor and face masks in preparation for an armed resistance to
the feared military occupation.
Litteral planned to test
homemade explosives with Barker in Shelby, North Carolina, quoting Litteral as
saying “it is going to be great,” in reference to the explosion, the district
attorney’s statement said.
The federal conspiracy
charges carry a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. In
addition, Campbell has been charged with a separate firearms charge punishable
by 10 years imprisonment and a $10,000 fine.
Though the charges stem
from their involvement in building explosives devices, it is noteworthy that
Federal prosecutors and the Associated
Press say the men are accused of stockpiling weapons and
ammunition, which in and of itself is not a crime. Just last week
we showed video proof that
Federal agents are on the look-out for individuals or groups making bulk
purchases of a variety of supplies including ammunition, Meals-Ready-To-Eat,
and gas masks.
While we’re not advocating
the building, testing or storing of explosives, what this story highlights is
something preparedness professionals refer to as OPSEC. Someone in this group of three bragged
about what they were doing, or, a store clerk saw something and said something
to Homeland Security officials.
Whatever the case, this
goes to show that once word gets out about preparedness activities deemed suspicious in nature, you can fully expect armed federal agents to show up in
droves.

States need to reverse the trend we are seeing that removes all
means of self-defense from citizens.
This is a global problem caused by the UN and its government
minions. Even pepper spray has quietly
become illegal along with our 2nd Amendment rights. You can only claim self-defense if you shoot
a burglar in your house. It is currently
illegal to shoot at a burglar in your yard.
The objective of these freedom ripping laws is to be totally
dependent on the Police, who will be there in 15 to 30 minutes. They may file a report, but they are not
likely to catch the criminals. The law
needs to include your yard and property as your private domain and allow you to
shoot criminals in your yard with guns.
You need to be able to use your pepper spray without fear of being
prosecuted.
