I listened to the Buzzfeed author last night who explained. It went something like this...

No longer active duty member of the military wants to stay in active duty shape. He joins the Watchmen .
Watchmen start having conversations about killing cops. He is concerned and talks to a cop friend of his for advice. He contacts the FBI to inform them
FBI gets back to him and requests he stay in the group and monitor.
Watchmen like this guy because of his military experience and is promoted within their group
He becomes aware of the plot to kidnap Gov. Whitmer and passes that information onto the FBI

There was no entrapment because the Watchmen hatched the plot the informant did not suggest or offer up the idea.

Yes, but the government engaged snitches to foil an evil plot, and therefore its all the government’s fault. Government be evil!

lol this vid does a great breakdown of everything.

This is literally a textbook definition of entrapment 101 - where essentially all of the leaders of this group were working for the FBI lol. Were talking FBI Informants hosting these gatherings - paying for transportation, gas, hotels, and meals and "organizing" these events.


lol pretty much exactly what happened:

The author of the Buzzfeed article explained how there was NO entrapment. I suggest you educate yourself. Informant does not equal entrapment.

Sammy the Bull was an informant for the FBI and there was no entrapment because he did not coerce the mob into criminal activity.

Bullshit. The government's agencies always overreach. We have seen this. They coerced many immigrant Muslims after 9/11 into very sneaky tactics in exchange for favorable immigration status, etc. Many, many examples. You apologists are always defending the establishment. Pretty sad and pathetic. It's not out of the question to think that the government's aren't always clean. Far from it. Yet, for some reason, the left has totally opened up their arms to the establishment without any critical thinking. I though you guys cared for human rights.

Ah, nice. The FBI is great if they go after groups you people dislike. Wonderful.

Just remember, tides turn and it might be somebody else getting targeted next time. That's why government overreach must never be supported.

The government’s what? You used a possessive word, government’s, but you seem to have forgotten what was being possessed by the government.

Or is your grammar so poor that you are attempting to make a word plural by incorrectly using an apostrophe s to make a word plural?

Probably the latter.

Did you seriously wait a decade, while sitting on your conservative bigot piece of shit victims card, to test out some of this underwhelming bullshit?

Take a tip: go fuck back off. Your kind is finally getting to see the light whether you like it or not.
