Seems almost every day another one is caught. And Tucker Carlson said they are a hoax. Fox needs to drop that bozo.

Did you follow the link in that article about the FBI and domestic terrorism in general ?
Some scary numbers there...5000 investigations going on..850 domestic terrorism, 1000 ISIS related and another 1000 for homegrown violent extremism (I think this is the one for supremacists) among others.

Believe it or not one can legally buy a grenade launcher in the US in some states.
Now I didn't try to further search and set off any flags with big brother

Geeze...maybe the Dems should push to ban grenade launcher sales to individuals ?

Here we are bickering about guns and the crazies are out there buying grenade launchers !

It is sad. Makes me glad I don't live in one of those states. But what can you do? Build a wall around your state to keep idiots with grenades and launchers out? That's up to the federal government to put a stop to unless people want to risk getting themselves or their families blown to bits.

Me neither. I thought I'd get some hits about smuggled ones coming up from Mexico.
Actually shocking that not a single elected official has mentioned this with all the gun debate that has been going on for years.

I'm not going to do any more searching than the 1 google search I did for obvious reasons.

Now I will stare at the front door all night waiting..waiting...waiting

Hahahahaha You said hoax. Then post a link to CNN.

Are you even serious?


Please explain why ANY critically thinking adult would believe anything said by CNN without thought or question?
