POLICE STATE: Man Investigated for Buying Ammunition

Brian Loftus, a commercial fisherman and Oathkeeper, went to a local gun store to purchase a few boxes of ammunition for the range. Later that evening he got a phone call from the State Police. They wanted to talk to him because of his “large purchase amount of ammunition.”Loftus, told the State Police that he had no criminal record and no reason to be suspected of anything. The police responded by telling him that they “know his record was clean”, because they had already pulled it and checked him out prior to the call.

Lets just say I ain't happy about this.
Cussing a blue streak to be honest.

Nothing illegal about them asking the question. He doesn't have to answer.

I'd blow them off and hang up.

What happened to our old 'bullshit' emoticon?!?

Who pulled the alarm? Someone said X amount of ammo is suspect and then alerted whomever called him. How did they know the name of the guy? If he used plastic to pay I understand.

Could be a criminal at the store who grifted the phone number and address off an employee or just looked up his name and wanted to see if this guy was home before robbing him.

Man bought ammo. No crime. Period. Screw context.

The comments are hilarious.

If they had called me , it would have been thank you and have a nice day and hung up.

Who tipped off the police? The shop owner/employee? Wasn't Jeremy Alcede with Tactical Firearms in Katy Texas was it?

Road Island I think was the state.

Slanderous...

Lol it sounds like Jeremy. Didn't his wife say we need to ban the sale of ammo online to prevent criminals from loading their guns? LOL

Holy crap they were.

If this happened to me, I'd go back to the gun store and raise hell. Make sure everyone and the dog knew they were reporting their customers to the gubbermint.

Yes, let us never pass up an opportunity to get worked up over somehing we know jack about.

I'm guessing the pitchforks and torches are a bit much. Well rabble rabble, rabble rabble rabble.

You backing the "authorities"?
I must say I ain't surprised.
Tell me. What law prevents a man with no criminal record from buying ammunition, regardless of quantity?

 

[BG1960]

the guy is white, has facial hair, a tank top, and tatts -> it's OBVIOUS he is a dangerous wacko.

 

[itchin]

Is the story even true?

 

[majormadmax]

Is the story even true?

Probably not, but some folks don't something as mundane as the truth get in the way of screaming conspiracy!

Oddly enough, I know a lot of people who buy tons of ammo and I've yet to hear any of them getting a phone call from the police...

But that's boring in comparison of a good Big Brother story now, isn't it?!?

Funny thing though, the only websites that are carrying this "story" are all of the same genre. No news, no official reports, no FOIA request; just the same story spewed across every one of them.

And "police state," that's a laugh. I doubt any of the people that make up these stories has ever stepped foot inside a real police state, because if they had they'd know better than to make such a ridiculous accusation!
