    Everyone is so quick to denounce someone by what the media says, the same media that most on here already know is nothing but subversive propaganda. This guy could be alot of the members of this forum when in the future every white male that cares about freedom is labeled as a “nazi”.

    He liked Tramadol, never knew it was OTC in Mexico. He was getting it Fedex and UPS from San Diego, via Tijuana.

    Who gives the government these search requests and under what authority?

    US coast guard Lt.

    Guess what, every federal government computer keeps keystroke logs.

    No warrant needed. Don’t need to ask google, Microsoft or anyone else with a warrant for his searches (not that they likely keep the info).

    Yeah I always like how it only takes a single nut job to taint gun owners, but you can have lots of wacked out progressive democrats, but supposedly it doesn't taint the rest, or their mission.

    My thing is where is the problem? Unless they can prove he "circumvented the system", I bet he bought every single one of those guns totally legally. What would happen if something COMPLETELY unconstitutional were in place like requiring handing over social media accounts to the state police before you can buy a gun? I suspect more of these whack jobs wouldn't post stuff to social media and fewer of them would get caught in advance.

    He was a member of the armed forces (okay, former, now part of DHS, but close a friggen nough). Had no criminal history. He is basically text book for being the exception to any kind of firearms exclusions other than him not also being a LEO (and we run in to some LEO crazies every once in awhile too).

    In this case the system worked. It caught him. If the system were even more "locked down" or whatever, it is more likely he wouldn't have been caught because he would have probably tried to fly under the radar more knowing what was being looked at.

    He lives in MD. I dont know if all the stuff in the photo is MD legal or not. Then the questions arise when did he buy it and did he already own it when he got to MD.

    Little sumthin you gotta remember. To our enemy, we are ALL mentally ill neonationalist insurrectionists.

    Exactly. There has been talk on here about "revolution" "come and take em" "refusing to comply", etc. Now, all the authorities need to do is bring the level of "free speech" down a couple of notches, and anybody that utters the word "revolution" "civil war", etc. will be going to prison.

    I think we are starting to tread a very fine line here.

    The point of the post was the title. Frankly I dont care if its a dupe. If mgmt doesnt like the thread Im sure they will lock it or delete. I felt that since this nut was from MD, he could be a problem.

    So did every one else who started s similar thread, then there's those that got sucked in by the "click bait" title. Youre title shoikd have been a comment . If it's important, put an intelligent title to it, then people can decide whether they want to read it or not. BTW, not everyone on MDS is from Maryland.

    Takes 10 seconds of time to get the gist and decide to move on or not. I am reading the other thread about this in the Watercooler right now. Also, remember that some cannot go to the Watercooler.

    This could work against us

    On an emotional basis by people who make up their minds with emotion, sure. But anything and everything that happens can for them.

    Thanks to the Constitution ACLU, there isn't a devolved democracy where it is not harder to detain, evaluate and remand a person for mandatory mental health treatment than the US. If guns did not exist this would be a picture of some nut's knife collection, or chemistry set, with lots of interests pointing to, and lots of the population agreeing, we need deep cuts in Fourth and Fifth amendment rights.

    OJ Simpson killed his ex wife and her boyfriend with a knife, and got off because a jury of morons was swayed by rhymes. He could not be tired for those charges again due to US double jeopardy Prohibition.
    In most other democracies there would have been no jury, but only a professional judge or panel of judges, who would not have been swayed by Johnnie Cochran antics and he would have been convicted. And Even if there was a mistake by cops or prosecutors, in most other countries he could be tried again (like Oscar Pistorius).

    In our country we generally have more liberty, including liberty to potentially do bad things, and our constitutional and criminal justice system make it harder to interdict or convict because we understand liberty is worth the risks.

    Scumbag Timothy McVeigh already proved a mentally ill person can kill way more people with non gun means. In terms of violence in the US with irrational political agendas in the past ten years this has come more from the left. A left wing Bernie Sanders campaign worker tried to assassinate a good chunk of the GOP congressional leadership. A left wing BLM supporter targeting "white police" engaged in mass shooting that left 16 shot, seven dead and a total of 17 shot. Antifa has committed over 1,500 acts of assault, aggravated assault, arson and vandalism with the vast majority of harm it has caused to bystanders and property owners who are not even their supposed target.

    The guy in this story was caught with existing laws. In fact the appears to have been surveilled by an entire team for quite some time. How is that proof of anything other than existing laws are sufficient?

    So why don't we do some digging on them (especially the MGA nut jobs) and hoist them by their own petard in social media?

    You must remember that this is the only country that I am aware of that has an EXPLICIT 2A Civil Right that has been mostly nullified by existing laws in this state. But that's not good enough for the Communists and Fascists in the MGA and State Government. There must be more laws so that they can say they DID SOMETHING. And that's what it's all about for them, Civil Rights be damned.

    Reviving an old thread, but I thought it was appropriate to mention that he has been sentenced to 13 Years in Federal Prison. Source: https://www.justice.gov/usao-md/pr/...-years-federal-prison-federal-charges-illegal

    Christopher Hasson Sentenced to More Than 13 Years in Federal Prison on Federal Charges of Illegal Possession of Silencers, Possession of Firearms by an Addict to and Unlawful User of a Controlled Substance, and Possession of a Controlled Substance


    Greenbelt, Maryland – U.S. District Judge George J. Hazel today sentenced Christopher Paul Hasson, age 50, of Silver Spring, Maryland, to 160 months in federal prison, followed by four years of supervised release, on four federal charges, including unlawful possession of unregistered silencers, unlawful possession of firearm silencers unidentified by serial number, possession of firearms by an addict to and unlawful user of a controlled substance, and possession of a controlled substance. Hasson has been detained since his arrest on February 15, 2019.

    The sentence was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Robert K. Hur; Special Agent in Charge Jennifer C. Boone of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Baltimore Field Office; Special Agent in Charge Art Walker of the U.S. Coast Guard Investigative Service; and Acting Special Agent in Charge Toni Crosby of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) Baltimore Field Division.

    “Preserving our nation’s security against terrorist threats continues to be the Justice Department’s top priority. Lives were saved due to the skill and dedication of law enforcement in this case. Christopher Hasson intended to inflict violence on the basis of his racist and hateful beliefs. As long as violent extremists take steps to harm innocent people, we will continue to use all of the tools we have to prevent and deter them,” said United States Attorney Robert K. Hur.

    “The FBI remains committed to combatting terrorism, both domestic and international, and we remain fully prepared to take those actions necessary to safeguard our communities,” said Special Agent in Charge Jennifer Boone. “We will use every tool given to us by the Department of Justice and Congress to disrupt Racially Motivated Violent Extremist activity. However, protection of our communities and our nation is a shared responsibility, and we must combat terrorism as a united force against all forms of violent hate.”

    According to his plea agreement, Hasson was a Lieutenant in the United States Coast Guard. Prior to June 2016, Hasson owned a residence and lived in Currituck, North Carolina. In approximately June 2016, Hasson moved to a residence in Silver Spring, Maryland, and worked at Coast Guard Headquarters in Washington, D.C.

    As detailed in the government’s sentencing memo and presented to the Court during the sentencing hearing, Christopher Hasson self-identified as a “White Nationalist” for over 30 years and in writings advocated for “focused violence” in order to establish a white homeland. Review of Hasson’s e-mail accounts, saved documents, text messages, and Internet searches show that he was inspired by racist murderers, stockpiled assault weapons, studied violence, and intended to exact retribution on minorities and those he considered traitors.

    Hasson admitted that from at least March 2016 through early February 2019, he used various e-mail accounts, including an overseas encrypted e-mail account, to order Tramadol, which is an opioid, from various illegal Internet-based distributors. Hasson usually paid for the Tramadol by wiring money to individuals in Mexico, at the direction of the Mexico-based distributor, who then had the Tramadol shipped to Hasson, typically in 100mg pills, at addresses Hasson provided, including his North Carolina and Maryland residences. Hasson admitted that he then concealed the Tramadol in other packaging at his residence and work and personally took the pills, usually daily, including while he was at work.

    As detailed in his plea agreement, at the time of Hasson’s arrest on February 15, 2019, agents recovered 196 Tramadol pills from Hasson’s backpack. Search warrants executed the same day recovered 106 Tramadol pills from Hasson’s desk at Coast Guard Headquarters and 122 Tramadol pills from Hasson’s residence. From Hasson’s residence, law enforcement also recovered the following firearms: seven rifles; two shotguns; four pistols; two revolvers; an assembled firearm silencer; and a disassembled firearm silencer. In close proximity to the guns, agents found multiple magazines that could accept more than 15 rounds of ammunition, as well as hundreds of rounds of ammunition. Hasson ordered the components of the firearm silencers from a company in California and used a drill to complete and assemble one firearm silencer. Hasson knew the firearm silencers were not registered in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record, and that they did not have serial numbers, as required by law.

    As detailed in court documents, to prepare himself to take action, in addition to the firearms and silencers referenced above, Hasson purchased holsters, knives, magazines, ammunition, handguards, camping supplies, Meals-Ready-to-Eat, steel body armor plates, plate carriers, tactical vests and pouches, firearm repair kits, and smoke grenades. Hasson also e-mailed to his Coast Guard computer the manifestos of mass murderer Anders Breivik and Unabomber Ted Kaczynski, as well as the memoir of Eric Rudolph, the 1996 Atlanta Olympics bomber, titled “Between the Lines of Drift: The Memoirs of a Militant.” Hasson referred to those documents in his own writings. Hasson registered for an online sniper and sharpshooter forum, studied sniper tactics, and purchased high-end scopes and a sniper rifle. Internet searches performed by Hasson show that he targeted potential victims, including media personalities and current and former elected officials.

    United States Attorney Robert K. Hur commended the FBI, the U.S. Coast Guard Investigative Service, and the ATF for their work in the investigation. Mr. Hur thanked his office’s national security prosecutors, who handled the case.
