@wagshol_brandon on Twitter. Guy is a dumbass that tags the FBI about every other Tweet talking shit on them. Don't see it as honestly threatening though. There is a series of 3 Tweets no longer available.

He posted 'racist' and 'anti-trans' memes.

Would like to see what the memes were for crying out loud.

--In addition, Wagshol’s firearms were seized under Connecticut’s red flag law – in what will become the new status quo across the country if federal lawmakers get their way. The firearms found in Crosland’s home were legal and registered to his father, but were taken anyway.
“I drove to Halstead New Hampshire from Norwalk CT in about 3 hours to acquire 30 round magazines and ammunition to circumvent what I viewed as an unconstitutional restriction on the second amendment,” Wagshol said in his witness statement.
“I purchased 4 30 round magazines and 120 rounds of 300 Blackout ammunition for firearm training. I plan on building an 80% rifle kit which I purchased online from Ceratec, in California. I plan on completing the 80% firearm at my friend Alex’s house in Easton. I did not have the intention of committing any mass shootings at all whatsoever,” he added.--
Bail is set at $250k. I'm still not sure what was illegal about what this guy did. Looks like he bought 30 round mags out of state along with some ammo. I'm not sure what CT's laws are, but in NY you can only have 10 round mags, maybe something similar here. Restricted ammo?
His lawyer insinuates that he just reposted a meme. Apparently that got the cops at his door to take his guns. If there isn't anything more to this, they've clearly taken things to the next level.

He should also consider legal action against his University. Suspending him without any sort of due process?

No doubt. Should be a huge lawsuit. They're fucking up this kid's life over some bullshit. Again, maybe there's more to it, but from what I see, it doesn't look like he did anything wrong.

Holy mother please help us! So scary. Red Flag is the end of America and meming. They have killed two birds with one stone.
This case is just the beginning once Google IDs all the memers, none of our sons and daughters will ever be able to protect themselves from a tyrannical government. We need to be vocal and Call congrAssmen now.

Starting to feel like that. We're all on lists for thought crimes and offensive meme sharing. Soon to have anonymous tips called in on us.

That's why I check my rhetoric with the Normies and Libfags. One group is still asleep and living the nightmare so that they're scared shitless, and the other are just plain stupid and drink the KoolAid, love it, and ask for more. They don't understand the concept of the Bill of Rights as the concrete, set in stone guarantees they they are.
The father was punished too, in fact because the guns were legal and registered to him but they took 'em anyway. Oh man, I can't wait for this to go to the SC.
