Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire man buys oil filters online, homeland security shows up at his house

Absolutely!

Yes they would Barry! Most politicians use buttplugs on a daily basis.

With brick and mortars going by the way side, I suppose it will be easier for any purchases to be tracked. No cash sales...

I didn't watch the video, but I have to take issue with those of you condemning the man for being a "compliant pussy." Because every time there's an instance of a man smarting off to cops, failing to follow commands, and resisting arrest only to get himself shot as a result, some of the very same ones of you condemn him for NOT being compliant.

If for some reason the cops came to my door to investigate me by mistake I'm going to be the most polite and compliant sumbeach they ever met.

I'll sue their asses off later.

If the last four years have taught us anything, it’s that the proper answer to any question asked by federal LEO is “Lawyer”, sad to say.

Where is your signed warrant with attached affidavit, sir? Oh, you don’t have one? Well, go try to get one based on a purchase of unrestricted items, and come back later. I will wait.

As far as demanding I return unregulated items I bought, they can FRO. I can see such a conversation devolving to the point I tell them to get a real job and get the fug off my property. Unbelievable.

Don't forget to include John Ashcroft and his participation in shoving Homeland Security down our throats. Another case of never let a good crisis go to waste.

I'll give ground when immanent force will be used. Then hash it out in court..

But some fugger showing up at my door without warrant, looking for something to throw me in jail for, and take away my freedom, can GFH.

Way too many people don't even have a basic understanding of the constitutional rights that protect them from big govt.

I think I'd let him know he's on pretty shakey legal ground showing up at my house for buying something perfectly legal to own and demanding I give it to him.

for phugs sake? Oil Filters?

They know they are on shaky ground before they even knock.

The count on most people's ignorance to get the foot in the door.

Listen to the entire video. The sellers do not have to do anything:

1) He went to eBay to look at Oil Filter Suppressors
2) He googled YouTube videos of Oil Filter Suppressors.
3) Then he bought a large quantity of Oil Filters.

Think "Big Data" aka Data Lake. All this information from search engines and various social media sites and online retailers is flowing into a "Data Lake". Someone in .gov (BATF?) is sitting on top of a giant search engine looking for all of the people who did multiple online searches for "Oil Filter Suppressors" and then purchased multiple Oil Filters.

Big Data and your tax dollars at work. Everyone is worried about FFL Bound Books with 4473's. No worries. They don't need the 4473's for gun confiscations. They can use the same technology to harvest data off the 'net to know what addresses they need to show up at. As well as which ones they will need reinforcements...

Yep, especially because they have some sort of special cut out in the law whereby if you say anything inaccurately to them, intentionally or not, they can put you in jail for lying to them.

Maybe they follow "official requests" to avoid IRS audits, OSHA inspections, ICE audits, etc.

Yeah, they may not "have" to do anything, but most assuredly, they are pointed out the folly of them failing to do so.

Yep! 😡

Oil filters...

Start buying a bunch of sugar. In hundreds of pounds.
You will get a visit.
Had to warn a friend of that one. He was picking it up for a friend,
paying cash. But they ordered it in his name! And....Well it wasn't for jelly.


Another friend started a greenhouse, ran it for 2 years on the down low.

Then the tax people showed up.
They had went through his suppliers books and saw his purchases.

"MR. XXX what did you do with 7000 plants last year, your records show
you as a factory employee? Are you running a truck farm?"

"Ugh, ugh, NO!"

"I see the greenhouses, you sell plants?"

Now he charges sales tax, pays income tax, gets regular inspections
from the Ag Department, buys permits, carries business insurance....

Funny thing.
He used to charge half of what the other greenhouses charged, and
would run them down as cheating people. "Im making good money..."
Now, he charges about the same.

PREZACTLY!

The Waffen ATF showed up at my door to harass me about a gun I’d sold that had been used in a “crime”.
I told them if they had a warrant or an arrest warrant for me have at it. Other wise talk to my attorney. They left broken-hearted. 🤠

Updated my post. Accidentally pushed post too soon...

Funny how they can track down that guy buying oil filters, but they haven't yet tracked down those purchasing very large, commercial grade fireworks and supplying them to groups like Antifa and their ilk. Local radio talk show guy brought this up a few times. Aren't those type fireworks tightly controlled? Don't you need some type of license to be involved in commercial pyrotechnics ? Can Joe Citizen just purchase a dozen sky mortars, put 'em on his debit card and be on his merry way ? WTF ?? What's wrong with this picture ?

Damn that made me laugh out loud.
