You're probably talking about ammonium nitrate specifically. And once you've made your explosive with it, you still need to make something to detonate it, since it's pretty stable without that; it's not like sweating dynamite.

ANFO was used to blow up the Alfred P. Murrah federal building in Oklahoma City, so the feds take that pretty seriously.

Lol and that's an arsenal, I've gifted my friends and family more firearms than that.

500+ rounds of... probably 22lr....in a Winchester range pack lol

An hour? Some weapons firing cyclic would burn through 500 rounds in less than a minute.

Yeah, like…there’s nothing really stopping people from buying an arsenal through guns hows and stores. Like…this almost makes no sense. I get it, there are serial numbers and tracking means with manufacturer made guns. Is that the only reason? Because I’ve seen a few people with much bigger arsenals.

You have to act chill in front of them or they can ruin your life.

Get together with like minded individuals and call them the fascist piece of shit pigs they are. But don't do it to their face or they will hunt you like prey.

When I accused him of it he told me to prove it.

I wonder if you could get a 360 camera that uploads to the cloud in real time and ship it to yourself?

Almost zero. This is just a scary sounding thing that they can use to justify illegal domestic spying, and the masses go "oh, good job! Get those scary ghost gun guys!"

Lmfaoooo u funny bruv.

All a "ghost gun" means is that the gun isn't registered. It's effectively the same thing as a garage gun. Also, the actual number of "ghost guns" used in crimes is stupidly small. Like not enough to matter for rounding off of 99.9% of gun crime.

As for the "specialized skills" needed to make one of these? Have you ever had a high school carpentry class, maybe a beginning into to working in a metal shop? Congrats. You now have all the special skills you need to buy, assemble, and fabricate a 100% legal slam fire shotgun out of plumbing parts.

Even making an AR is a weekend project for a motivated individual.

i thought guns and making them is legal in the US

There is nothing illegal about what the cops are doing here. Immoral? Perhaps. But not illegal.

These services are selling your purchase history to the authorities, and as a user of these services, you agreed with that as a condition of using the services.

Want privacy? Don’t use services that track and sell your data. Easier said than done, I know.

Ship them to friends houses but ones that also don't use social media or even if they do they just got one part.

Privacy is not a crime. And they should not be allowed to surveil our day to day like this to get warrants, the warrants are supposed to come first. Or rather, used to.
