FBI Arrests Three Men Prepping for Martial Law with Weapons and Explosives

 

The FBI arrested three North Carolina men over the weekend who were in possession of firearms and explosives because they were prepping for martial law.

Yes, Walter Eugene Litteral, Christopher James Barker, and Christopher Todd Campbell were all worried about the United States imposing martial law on the whole country by way of military force, and so they stockpiled lots of weapons, military equipment, and some parts to build pipe bombs with.

They were all arrested and charged with conspiracy to violate federal laws on guns and explosive devices. They could face up to five years in prison.
