A far-right extremist who was carrying a "White Privilege" card has been charged with possessing pipe bombs, and threatening to bomb Democratic lawmakers.

Ian Benjamin Rogers was arrested on January 15 and charged in state criminal court with illegal firearm charges on Tuesday (2021-01-26).  He was charged with possessing five pipe bombs that were unregistered destructive devices.  Law enforcement officers and agents found them in his work's office on the day he was arrested.

A large weapon safe, which contained several guns and the five bombs, was found at Rogers' work office.  Officials identified other materials at the scene that could be used to manufacture destructive devices, including black powder, pipes, endcaps, and manuals, including The Anarchist Cookbook, U.S. Army Improvised Munitions Handbook, and Homemade C-4: A Recipe for Survival...

After reading the story, I'm disappointed this card was just found in that guy's possession when they canvased his house. I was wondering if he had presented that to a police officer under the impression that would somehow grant him immunity, because that would have been hilarious. :lol:

Nothing to see here. The left is blowing this out of proportion for partisan reasons! He didn't blow anyone up so obviously there is no crime. Stop politicizing right wing domestic terrorists and start unifying, hugging white supremacists, and doing the work to heal the nation!! ! :roll: :lol:

Jail. Send him there. Gonna be lots of room for real criminals like this as the number of unjustly incarcerated falls over the duration of the Biden administration. 8)
