If this lodge is anything like mine, he wouldn't have made it into the building before being shot...repeatedly. Well over half of my lodge is retired or current LEO or military. They also carry.
Glad he was caught and the FBI is actually working these threats.
I hope that they locker their guns and not bring into lodge room. Even MWB Harry S Truman, while President, did not allow his Secret Service Officers who were Masons carry into Lodge Room. Non Masonic Secret Service Officers were not allowed to accompany Brother Truman into Lodge
My dad was a Shriner and beyond wearing that cool but definitely kooky FEZ and helping childrens hospitals I don't know what they did. But they have a pretty nice Temple hall. I sometimes wished I had looked into joining it but my dad never encouraged or discouraged it or even spoke about them. but he liked going to the meetings. The Man Who Would Be King has some great masonic references and history in it. Maybe that's why its on my Top Ten favorite films list. Or maybe that's why I like the Masons.
So was this guy a dip**** and strung along by the FBI like usual or was he really a threat?
I wonder how somebody could be so stupid and still remember to breathe. First he babbles about attacking something somewhere and then buys his guns from the FBI. I wonder if the were even capable of firing.
About the Masons. I consider them to be selfish low lives of the first order. When my mother's Mason partner died they wouldn't give her any consideration at all. They are a bunch of colluding thieves with their own money club. They are not trying to take over the world because they already own it. They are only trying to hold on to their ill gotten gains.
I always think of those types of places as creepy cults. No one ever knows what they do. They're just....not right.
Anyway, well done. That place is right downtown, concentrated area. Lots of people around, he could've done a lot of damage if he continued his assault outside the building as well.

Not a Mason myself, mostly because I have no interest in joining any clubs. That said I never met a mason that wasn't a pretty good egg over all. I'm sorry to hear what happened with your Mom, but perhaps that was a local ignorance rather than a collective?
