Oh yeah the ATF is completely off the rails. They are actively working to punish legal gun owners under laws the Democrats wish they had been able to enact but have not enacted! Its insane. They are putting radical people at the head of this agency precisely to punish legal gun owners and scare the population. I think Its going to backfire becasue its tyranny and maybe we can capitalize on that (and get some awareness and protections in place.)
It is disturbing because his record shows a successful US citizen poised to lead and contribute to the good. He represents the kind of youg man that brings credit to our way of life IMHO.
This is absolutely disgraceful. It’s beyond shameful that a U.S. government agency would slap these BS charges on a law abiding current U.S. service member. I cannot imagine what he and his family are going through right now. The ATF should be ASHAMED of themselves. Instead of going after real criminals, it seems that they spend the majority of their time going after law-abiding Americans.. even current active duty service members trying to serve their country!! I truly hope that he wins his appeal and has all of his charges DROPPED and that the ATF be held accountable for their twisted un-American agenda. My prayers go to him and his family
If you remember how covid vax refusers were treated in the military, youll see that being in the service doesnt give you any protection from your own government that your serving
I can't believe the ATF is able to take a de-milled object, re-mill it into a semi-functional object, and not only charge someone but get convictions in it. What is wrong with these jurors...?
While the problem does come down to the jurors, its really the selection (or really deselection since that's what it really is) process that is the real problem. If it is a jury of ones "peers", then only the defendant and his or her council should be the ones picking the jury. The prosecution and court as a whole should have NO involvement in the jury selection process other than maybe just basic oversite to make sure that there is nothing nefarious (like say payoffs or whatnot) going on during selection.
They won’t. But remember, one of the reason their “rules” are allowed to stand is because people blindly follow them. Complacency is their justification. If everyone disregarded their statements, you’ll find they have no power and are impressively limp dicked. The best example was the pistol brace letter. Even now, there is a lawsuit to “overturn” their “ruling”
Law abiding citizen: buys a block of milspec aluminum ATF: *mills it, converts it, shapes it through extensive machining process* charges law abiding citizen for having a "readily" available machine gun. Also atf...where here to take guns from the bad guys.
At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if they take peoples ARs and convert them or put in a DIAS and put you away for machine gun charges. The DEA could just raid your medicine cabinet cook something up and get you on drug charges.
Now you can understand how the fbi can claim that there were two "bombs" left outside the RNC and DNC on the 5th of January. Every photo I have seen, appear that these were dummy/inert/training aids and incapable of being a weapon. A piece of pipe and two loose end caps is now an explosive device, as they (the atf) can modify it, add some material from your home, and turn it into a weapon.
As a veteran I understand everything you said. As an American I am mad as hell. What folks don't get is that they are prepping to come after all of us. Politicians and the media are part of the problem.
Correct and add the judges to that list. Some one needs to drop. the gavel and stop this wild hunt and creation of rules and bending the laws to allow this type of prosecution.
These scumbags never stopped letting lowlife thugs out with a slap on the wrist before covid as well as after covid only people getting sentences are the ones who aren't sucking the cock of the left
Only problem is nobody has the balls nowadays to arm up and shoot back. They think oh I’ll fight it in court…psh what a joke. What happened to actual patriots?
They've perfected their Ruby Ridge behavior unfortunately. No more media publicized in-your-face SWAT raids because that might distract the people from their sports games, and god forbid produce one or two McVeigh's. Now it's all under the radar, and nobody outside of a small independent minded and perceptive minority will ever notice it.
This just pisses me off to no end. When are we going to get to the point where we, the masses, actually collectively do something about this? There needs to be serious pressure to put an end to this. Waiting for individual cases to play out in court isn't going cut it.
I'm with ya brother. I think many of us are just waiting for someone to step up while the rest of us who are locked and loaded are ready for the que to fall in. and many of us are probably willing to be the first to step up, if knowing there are those ready to fall in with. but any sense of a unifying will get shut down so quick. i keep pushing my limits with what I say on here. let these tyrants come to my door. it'll be the start of something for sure
So that answers everyone’s old question, would the ATF prosecute you for a brace even if it is separated from your pistol upper? (Like we did not already know the answer to that). This is absolutely insane. The ATF is so corrupt it’s ridiculous.
At this point, I'm just waiting for people with normal rifles in their safes and hacksaws in their garages to start getting busted for having "constructive possession" of unregistered SBRs. This method of "justice" is pure lunacy.
The administration gave them their marching orders and they know no one will stand against them. Most federal agencies are nothing more than brown-shirts motivated solely by politics now. And sadly, I don't think 2024 will change anything since we'll just get another "safest securest election in history" with ballots appearing in the millions just in time and right where they are needed most for another record vote count for the worst "President" in history by every measurable metric.
Because we do nothing. We just sit and watch individual cases play out in court, during that time they lock up more people, even if you get a decision from a judge that what they were doing was unconstitutional, they will just write a new law or tweak a rule, wash rinse repeat.
@@gifthorse3675 Exactly, they live in denial and don't think about how they might be next, and how if they don't have a country because it was dismantled from the inside, their job won't matter or possibly even exist and their family may not survive.
Right?! Wtf. How this absurd, disgusting, pathetic circus even went forward in any court, accepted by a prosecutor, not torn apart by a judge and a thousand other things is so far beyond me I'm in awe. This is sick.
@@joearnold5836which makes me think there is WAY more to the story.... The jury going along with it? the judge? and then sentencing him for 20 years? There has to be intent. So i dont really buy "i was going to open a museum"... they mustve had an informant buying these devices off him, and him probably telling the informant how to return them to fully working order. This is really the only way they secure a conviction. the only part of this case we know is that the parts he owned were "demilled". We know nothing else. So naturally, based off of those facts sure he sounds innocent. But there is clearly way way way way more to this.
I don't know about that. stalin, pol pot, mao, xi jinping, and the tyrant from germany read the playbook written by the corrupt kings in history. they just tweaked it a bit. Show me the man and I'll show you the crime was stalin's version.
How is this not tampering with evidence? Evidence has to be preserved in the state it was found in, a chain of custody must be maintained and any alteration disqualifies the evidence.
For what it's worth I've written and called offices again regarding this absurd miscarriage of justice. The ATF needs to be brought in line then dismantled piece by piece. Their illegal and unconstitutional actions are an affront to every American, gun owner or not. If they keep getting away with these activities it will only embolden other agencies to further overstep their boundaries.
It just shows that a citizen can''t even follow the law as written. So what is the point of following the actual laws as written when they can make crap up and manufacture a crime on a law abiding citizen?! This is terrifying!

This shit is getting out of hand. They make up shit all the time and somehow gain a conviction. They would have no problem doing this to any one of us.
Great idea, let's keep asking the tyrants to please let our fellow Patriots out of prison. Maybe if we say pretty please and kiss their boots, they'll let him go... I'm so f'ing disgusted by what we are allowing to happen.

Not the first time I’ve heard of the ATF modifying something that isn’t illegal… making it illegal… then making enforcement based on what the ATF created. They did it with the portable wall hanger… they spent 15 minutes dremelling the novelty hook to create a “drop in” auto sear… then fired a gun… and went after people that bought these novelty items. I don’t understand how you can create something illegal then charge the person….
"yeah he had a nerf gun, so we took it to a machine shop and had them mill a 9mm barrel insert to slide inside the plastic tube, rigged up a simple firing mechanism and were able to successfully fire one round, therefore he has an anti-tank laser blaster" - The AFT after some 11 year old gives them a dirty look...
Knowing that all the wars that the US had begun and fought in your lifetime were based on complete lies, regurgitated by war pigs, for the profit of the military industrial complex, who gleefully treat you as nothing more than cannon fodder, which have resulted in the death and injury of tens of thousands of Americans, and the murder of hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children all over the world, why would you want to willingly contribute to all of that?
The fact that they rebuilt the RPG to say it worked would be like if they took your rifle, bought a 3rd hole jig, drilled it out, added an auto sear and then went “LOOK HE HAD A MACHINE GUN”
@@Mrgunsngear When you think about it, it's even worse. They turned the inert RPG-7 into a single-shot rifle. Which is also a legal weapon, but in this case, they said a single-shot rifle is the same as a destructive device because of its appearance, despite not having the function or being capable of the function.
This is terrifying and have been following the case for awhile. I have a large wall of awards and photos from Iraq & Afghanistan, and was looking at demilled RPG's to mount on the wall, and looked at all the common websites that sell them, but after this happened I put the brakes to that idea!
Thats insane.. are they gonna take my trashbag full of empty soda cans and say i intended to melt it down and make a suppressors out of it. And then get a conviction for having soda cans .. "F" insane
@karlpeterson9334 they charged him for a rocket launcher that had been de-milled. And for selling part kits that came into the country legally and the multiple cut rule came in later. I believe they also assembled a gun from a parts kit. Then they purposely asking him to find the specific parts kits they charged him for if I remember everything.
NCIS were probably rubbing their hands and wondering if they can add another number to their resume after having more meetings about having too many meetings.
This is once again a complete injustice. I am getting so sick of this. I was on the fence about completely disbanding the ATF. I thought it was overkill. I am no longer on that fence. Down with the ATF! I thought maybe they could still do some real law enforcement work. But now it's just too much they have completely gone off the rails.
I was thinking along the same lines. Most comments are putting all the blame on the gov yet ignoring the ignorance of the jurors. As far as I know I never get any replies to comments I make about jury nullification.
I love how the ATF said for the pistol brace you just had to seperate the two. (Brace from recever) but here for just that are charging him for constructive possession.
This is like arresting someone for owning dirt because if you planted a seed in it, whatever illegal plant they want to charge you with, will grow tons and tons of it!!
I am sick to death of ATF making "rules" WE THE PEOPLE are to follow, yet they have NO LAWS TO BACK THEM! THIS IS A DISGRACE TO OUR CONSTITUTION & IT TIME WE THE PEOPLE START TAKING OUR RIGHTS BACK!!
How is this not tampering with evidence? They take a demilled launcher, weld it up, install a kit, swap out the completely inoperable trigger/grip assembly with one of their own and somehow it was already in his possession like that? What would stop the ATF from charging anyone with a machine gun by drilling out an ar-15 receiver and installing one their auto sears and an m16 trigger pack?
I cannot believe what I'm hearing. it's so unbelievable, it's genuinely inconceivable. it seems as though most American's lack of mechanical and firearm knowledge is what has led to the ATF being able to do whatever they want and America accepts it when they scroll past these headline or read these articles
So the prosecutors in this case put a case forward to a jury that committed Type 2 jury nullification (voted Guilty when all evidence says Not Guilty) and the judge didn't throw out the jury verdict. This isn't justice, its insanity.
Technically the ATF is a domestic enemy of the United States under the 2nd Amendment militant oath. An oath all Americans can accept. Thomas Jefferson quotes- “No free man shall be disbarred the use of arms” “The Right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed” “The Tree of Liberty quotes” I can’t say on here because of TH-cam rules.

Hopefully people are stockpiling all the right things needed for dealing with this problem.
As an 27 year old E6 in the Navy this his too close to home. Absolutely disgusting.
Knowing that all the wars that the US had begun and fought in your lifetime were based on complete lies, regurgitated by war pigs, for the profit of the military industrial complex, who gleefully treat you as nothing more than cannon fodder, which have resulted in the death and injury of tens of thousands of Americans, and the murder of hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children all over the world, why would you want to willingly contribute to all of that?
So, if federal law enforcement falsely accuses you of a crime, you have no hope of the legal system protecting you if you cooperate?
Fast and furious ,no charges.
The fact that they rebuilt the RPG to say it worked would be like if they took your rifle, bought a 3rd hole jig, drilled it out, added an auto sear and then went “LOOK HE HAD A MACHINE GUN”
correct
@@Mrgunsngear When you think about it, it's even worse. They turned the inert RPG-7 into a single-shot rifle. Which is also a legal weapon, but in this case, they said a single-shot rifle is the same as a destructive device because of its appearance, despite not having the function or being capable of the function.
Thanks for getting this out again!
This is terrifying and have been following the case for awhile. I have a large wall of awards and photos from Iraq & Afghanistan, and was looking at demilled RPG's to mount on the wall, and looked at all the common websites that sell them, but after this happened I put the brakes to that idea!
This is insane. The most corrupt thing I've ever heard.
Where the hell are the believers in our Bill of Rights???
Lmfaoooo bro no one gives a shit anymore
Not in the justice system or law enforcement for that matter.
In this comment section complaining. Lead a protest and organize like the left does so well.
Thats insane.. are they gonna take my trashbag full of empty soda cans and say i intended to melt it down and make a suppressors out of it. And then get a conviction for having soda cans .. "F" insane
The ATF/FBI set him up for the charges too if I remember right. I wish I would have been on the jury since it happened here where I live.
Did this include pulling more charges out of thin air and pile them on to make the victim resist less? I wouldn't put it past them to do this.
@karlpeterson9334 they charged him for a rocket launcher that had been de-milled. And for selling part kits that came into the country legally and the multiple cut rule came in later. I believe they also assembled a gun from a parts kit. Then they purposely asking him to find the specific parts kits they charged him for if I remember everything.
Thanks for your work mr.G
WoW!!! This is CRAZY! Prayers up for the shipmate. 🙏🏽
NCIS were probably rubbing their hands and wondering if they can add another number to their resume after having more meetings about having too many meetings.
This is once again a complete injustice. I am getting so sick of this. I was on the fence about completely disbanding the ATF. I thought it was overkill. I am no longer on that fence. Down with the ATF! I thought maybe they could still do some real law enforcement work. But now it's just too much they have completely gone off the rails.
Thank you for all you do
You are so welcome
Is the entire American populace really this ignorant ? Does nobody know jury nullification ? … Thanks Mike, love you man.
I was thinking along the same lines. Most comments are putting all the blame on the gov yet ignoring the ignorance of the jurors. As far as I know I never get any replies to comments I make about jury nullification.
Nobody is taught about jury nullification in Amerikka. Anyone who mentions it is automatically scratched from the jury pool.
So whats next, ATF shops at a hardware store and buys pipe, nails, springs etc. Makes a gun from the items and then arrests the sales clerk ?
Sounds like he needed better lawyers
I bet if this poor guy just grew out his hair and wore a dress they would have left him alone.
This is getting out of control
So, basically, the BATFE knowingly purgered themselves in court. And they're STILL in operation?
Thank you brother for bringing this to the light
Thank you for always making these videos and keeping us updated. Almost nowhere else broadcasting this valuable info.
Well, a drawing on a credit card is a machine gun, so this dude is obviously the lord of war.
This is sick man. 20 years is no joke. Thats almost life. F that.
How can THEY set it up for live fire, and HE gets 20 years?!?!?🤔😒 #Shady
Thank you for sharing. This is crazy!
What the atf did wouldn't that be edvience tampering ? Could there be a appeal of miss trial due to tampering with edvience?
That's a legit question!
We need to march for him. He is being held by the enemy.
Makes me sick that this is happening
If the feds are willing to go through this much effort to frame a US citizen, what are they willing to do to foreigners they deem to be "enemies"?
They are too busy framing God fearing heterosexual men. They're not worried about anyone who wasn't born here.
It seems to me they're harder on Americans than they are on foreigners.
I love how the ATF said for the pistol brace you just had to seperate the two. (Brace from recever) but here for just that are charging him for constructive possession.
What they did to this US Navy Sailor is terrible. The ATF keeps changing the rules and what amounts to retroactively prosecuting people.
Ex-post facto laws have been illegal since day 1. How much time in Leavenworth is that worth?
Thank you for all your pro 2A efforts
How are they able to get away with this? It’s absolutely unbelievable. How has the governor not stepped in to pardon this case.
Study history, governments always want control over the people. All because they feel they know what's best for us.
Probably a Democrat supporting the current regime.
Thank you so much taking your time to share this, and the link to donate.
All this shows me is , if they come for you for any reason at all then fight like you have nothing to lose because they will take everything anyway…
It seems like manufacturing/modifying evidence should be a crime !
"You wouldn't have any problems if you just followed the law"
Someone should tell them that.
This is like arresting someone for owning dirt because if you planted a seed in it, whatever illegal plant they want to charge you with, will grow tons and tons of it!!
I am sick to death of ATF making "rules" WE THE PEOPLE are to follow, yet they have NO LAWS TO BACK THEM! THIS IS A DISGRACE TO OUR CONSTITUTION & IT TIME WE THE PEOPLE START TAKING OUR RIGHTS BACK!!
Thank you for covering this
Get out on bail for murder/attempted murder but stays locked away for having replica weapons and inoperable model weapons.
Thank you for sharing this information.
How is this not tampering with evidence? They take a demilled launcher, weld it up, install a kit, swap out the completely inoperable trigger/grip assembly with one of their own and somehow it was already in his possession like that? What would stop the ATF from charging anyone with a machine gun by drilling out an ar-15 receiver and installing one their auto sears and an m16 trigger pack?
Nothing. Nothing is stopping them anymore.
In fact due to absolute malignancy and corruption in the executive branch they are being encouraged to.
I cannot believe what I'm hearing. it's so unbelievable, it's genuinely inconceivable. it seems as though most American's lack of mechanical and firearm knowledge is what has led to the ATF being able to do whatever they want and America accepts it when they scroll past these headline or read these articles
Complete insanity
Breaking news if you have internet you’re in possession of a post 1986 machine gun
So the prosecutors in this case put a case forward to a jury that committed Type 2 jury nullification (voted Guilty when all evidence says Not Guilty) and the judge didn't throw out the jury verdict. This isn't justice, its insanity.
Shouldnt the ATF be put in jail for constructing a destructive device?
Technically the ATF is a domestic enemy of the United States under the 2nd Amendment militant oath.
An oath all Americans can accept.
Thomas Jefferson quotes-
“No free man shall be disbarred the use of arms”
“The Right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed”
“The Tree of Liberty quotes” I can’t say on here because of TH-cam rules.
They are a member of the Federal Government: the gun control laws ever since 1934 exempt them from obedience to these laws, fyi.
This is absolutely disgusting. What has our government become?
LMT sells 40mm Launchers all day long. How do these fit into the puzzle?
Maybe they can be converted into search and rescue equipment for launching lines.
This is ridiculous. Who are we donating to in order to fix this?
This honestly breaks my heart…. I appreciate you bringing these situations to light, cheers from Wisconsin. Hopefully better days are on the horizon.
