Yep that's the one, doesn't seem like a very nice guy as evidenced by his Wikipedia page having a special "Racist Comments" section. Reading that page a bit more suggests that he's actually pretty lucky to not be in prison after his confrontations with the government. Turns out the prosecution were inept and his trial got thrown out:
> On January 8, 2018, Judge Gloria Navarro declared a mistrial and dismissed the charges because the federal government had withheld potentially exculpatory evidence
- jtbayly 3y agoI haven’t read about it, but that quote doesn’t make it sound like the fed was inept but rather corrupt, which is where we started talking about why people want guns.
- smcl 3y agoHe got into this situation because they were waving their guns around, and got out of it through the courts. You're suggesting there should have been a threat of gun violence against the prosecutor and that this somehow would've helped his situation?
- jtbayly 3y agoNo. I’m suggesting that government corruption is a major reason people want guns.
