My Customer was Raided by ATF today!
A customer (a business owner) and also a friend of mine got raided by agents from the ATF today.

His home was searched (with warrant) for over 2 hours. I arrived there a half hour after they left.

He made numerous purchases of weapons in the last 6 months. All those purchases were LEGAL.

But...

Somehow a judge approved his home to be raided.

I'm a prepper and this gives me even more reason to continue.

They want to mark those that maybe problematic. They are disappearing people that might give them a fight.

You read about this shit all the time, but this incident really hit close to home for me.

We all need to prepare!

There's more...

Questions?

Well he's well to do, he's earned it. the great thing about him as he's never changed through his success. He's getting the royal treatment.

The IRS just sent him a letter last week that they will be auditing his business.

Coincidence? no fucking way. They are trying to bring him down!

The message I'm trying to bring here by this story is be low key in all you do.

Be quiet in all you do as you prep.

Don't make the same mistake my friend made and attract attention to yourself.

Be diligent, but be smart!

Good questions.

It was both the amount he purchased and the type. he has a license to buy all hardware, cant remember his license type, but he insisted it was all legal transactions.

The raid was triggered by the type and amount that he purchased in the last 6 months.

He's a member of the NRA is all I know.

He don't post online.

If it's legal why can't they at least try a simple way of asking instead of raiding?

They failed as far as he's concerned on their search, but as you can see by my post above they have the arm of the IRS to attack him as well.

Makes me sick, this guy is an awesome person.

So, he was raided--sucks. Did they take anything and did they trash his home? He obviously doesn't have friends in high places.
