    Being a snitch is on brand for Trump.

    Gun culture in America is so ironic. People buy these weapons for protection and to feel powerful, but having them makes you a target for violent crime; justifies deadly force by the State; and makes you a threat to yourself. This guy posts photos of his wall-o-guns and ghillie suit to look like a badass threat, and it sure did. To the feds!

    In the civilized countries of the world. A 74 yo man can be rolled into custody by a pair of officers with a can of mace between them. In America, they have to go in like it’s the rebel camp in Predator(1987).
