    Yeah, his convictions rang true, but he ultimately failed to accomplish what he set out to do.

    If you got 20 guys with AR-15s together and tried to raid, like, the Glock factory in Smyrna, GA, you wouldn’t meet much resistance either. It’s not like there’s a military garrison there. But you’d be fucked when you got surrounded by the local police, the county sheriff’s department, the state police, county SWAT, state SWAT, the FBI, the ATF, and on and on. Which is basically the equivalent of what happened.

      Good point… I assumed an armory would be more guarded than a modern gun store, but maybe not much
