Well, it’s just anecdotal, but a distant relative of my ex was imprisoned after being coaxed by FBI agents into attempting a mass shooting with a pellet gun. He was arrested walking out of a Walmart with his new pellet gun.
He is a disabled person clearly not qualified to buy firearms. The store would not sell him a real rifle on his first attempt, so the FBI agents told him to buy a pellet gun.
It would have been a “hilarious prank” if he didn’t end up spending 3 years in federal custody. TBF he was probably a lot better off in federal custody than in his normal day to day, so hard to say if this was really a bad thing for him.
Still, it’s frustrating to know that the resources of the FBI are spent on pranking disabled people.
