Reportedly a bunch of people (40+) with guns were going down to support him

Then nobody heard from them

I think they're saying everyone was arrested/killed and fbi hacked social media to cover it up

Since it's reddit I assume none of this actually happened and the reason nobody heard from them is because nobody actually went

This guy is hosed up, but as far as I can tell from the way it ended up presented in the news, the police and media combined are way more hosed up.

In that the news reported "the police say the guy needed medical help, the police say they were responding to a domestic disturbance involving his wife".

Meanwhile the immediate observable facts were the police went to the guy's house with an armored car and surrounded it with a SWAT team, which pretty much contradicts their story, and someone else's story is the police opened with threatening his wife that they'd call CPS if they couldn't immediately confiscate his guns, and that that was the "domestic disturbance involving his wife" - a technically true statement from the police but strongly implying "he was assaulting his wife," which nothing seems to corroborate (other than reasonable assumptions because the guy is clearly hosed up).

Just everything about what the police and reporters did seems tremendously irresponsible and incompetent, maybe even worse if they're telling the truth that they thought he needed medical help, which they're almost certainly not.

Also it sounded like the guy's one 'demand' was to get in writing that they aren't going to put him in jail or shoot him. This apparently led to a seven hour standoff. Surely this is a situation that could have been resolved peacefully and quickly, by saying "yes, okay, that's reasonable enough, we just want to take the illegal gun and that'll be the end of it." Problem solved, no seven hour standoff. Especially given they were meanwhile saying to the news "no intention of charges".

America.

the police probably knew he had guns and likely had some credible evidence (whatever it was ) from his wife that this guy is willing to use them
thats why they used an armored car. it would be loving stupid not to use an armored car.

(i dont like police but i cant blame them for not wanting to die for a domestic disturbance)

p.s. it wasnt about illegal guns, thats just what he said it was about

The kid is like 9 months old.

which means the crazy gun/knife man who calls police "red coats" has probably done some incredibly heinous/depraved/neglectful poo poo in order to attract their attention

but its all buglit in some sort of 30 round magazine nonsense, to some, to few
a shame
