Default Off the grid dissidents: The FBI's worst nightmare

https://archive.is/SKPmJ

Lonnie Coffman, the man accused of driving a pickup truck filled with Molotov cocktails and other deadly weapons to the nation’s capital, lives in a brick ranch house in the backwoods of Alabama.
Coffman had no criminal record. No apparent social media accounts. And no city officials or law enforcement in the area had ever come into contact with him.
“I don’t know him, never heard of him and I haven’t heard of anybody that did know him,” said Ken Winkles, mayor of the 1,300-person town of Falkville, where Coffman’s mail is delivered.
More than 50 people have been arrested on federal charges in the days after a mob of pro-Trump supporters stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6.
Coffman’s face was not among those that have gone viral, and it’s not even clear if he breached the building. But he stands out for the sheer amount of weaponry he brought to Washington.
The 70-year-old Alabama man with no criminal history or known extremist ties represents the worst nightmare for law enforcement, experts say — an apparent lone wolf who operated completely under the radar.
“These are the people who keep law enforcement up at night,” said Clint Van Zandt, a former FBI criminal profiler and an NBC News analyst. “I used to go to bed thinking, ‘Did I do everything I could? Have I looked for this? Have I looked for that?’ But what do you look for in a guy like this?”

The rise of right-wing groups like the Proud Boys and the Three Percenters has become a focus of federal authorities in the era of President Donald Trump. The existence of people like Coffman, loner types who amass large collections of weapons and who may become motivated to act on calls to overthrow the government, pose an even greater challenge for law enforcement.
“When you tell no one what you’re doing and do it yourself in a complete void, the only way we find you is, like this guy was found, we’re awful lucky and stumble upon you,” said Van Zandt, who was among a team of investigators that worked to identify the “Unabomber,” Ted Kaczynski.
Police officers happened upon Coffman’s truck after the authorities received reports of possible explosive devices in the vicinity of the National Republican Club and the Democratic National Committee headquarters.
While sweeping the area with police canines, two Capitol Police officers spotted what appeared to be the handle of a gun on the front-right passenger seat of a red GMC Sierra pickup truck, federal prosecutors said.
The vehicle was parked in the heart of downtown Washington, just a couple of blocks away from the Capitol.
Officers searched the truck and discovered it was equipped for war. Among the weapons found inside the interior and truck bed were: three guns, including an assault-style rifle; hundreds of rounds of ammunition; several machetes; camouflage smoke devices; a stun gun; a crossbow with bolts; and 11 Molotov cocktails in the form of canning jars with gasoline inside and a hole punched at the top.

The officers quickly determined through a vehicle registration search that the truck was registered to a Lonnie L. Coffman of Falkville, Alabama, prosecutors said.
Surveillance camera footage recovered later in the day showed Coffman parking the vehicle around 9:15 a.m. Prosecutors said he stepped out of it five minutes later and headed directly toward the Capitol with a crowd of people. A Trump rally was set to begin nearby at 11 a.m.
When Coffman returned to his vehicle around 6:30 p.m., he was stopped by police manning the security cordon and found to be in possession of two handguns, according to federal prosecutors.
Asked about the contents of the jars, Coffman told the officers they contained “melted Styrofoam and gasoline,” according to a Justice Department detention memo. The products created an explosive mixture that has the effect of napalm in that it causes the flammable liquid to better stick to objects it hits upon detonation, the memo says.
Jim Cavanaugh, a former special agent for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, said the homemade devices were designed to act like miniature hand grenades.
“It’s not really going to take down a building,” said Cavanaugh, who is an NBC News law enforcement analyst. “It’s more like a weapon that if someone was in a demonstration they would throw it at the police. And whatever it hits, because of the styrofoam, it keeps on burning.”
“If he went through all the trouble to make them and transport them, he likely intended to use them,” Cavanaugh added.
Cavanaugh, who led ATF field divisions in Birmingham, Alabama, and Nashville, Tennessee, said it was not at all surprising to him that someone from the hills of Alabama would be found with such an arsenal. He said the region is rife with people who are distrustful of government and have an affinity for weapons.
“This guy’s not unusual to me,” Cavanaugh said. “What’s unusual is the target: the Capitol. We’d see people making bombs all the time, but they wanted to kill their boyfriend or the person who cheated on them or once in a while they wanted to attack a prominent figure.”
Coffman lived along a country road in the shadow of Lacon Mountain. The heavily forested area is a kind of no man’s land between Falkville and Cullman, the 16,000-person seat of Cullman County.
Winkles, the Falkville mayor, said people in his town were not stunned to hear that someone from that area had been arrested in Washington with a large cache of weapons.
“There are a lot of problems on these mountains south of us,” Winkles said. “There are drugs. There are all kinds of stuff out there. Those people just do what they want to, or at least they think they can.”
Coffman and his then-wife purchased the 1,000-square-foot home on 3 acres for $20,150 in April 2010, records show. The house sits at the top of a long driveway with a "no trespassing" sign beside it and a couple of logs laid out across, blocking any vehicles from driving up to the house.

This entire article sounds like just another FBI/ADL-generated pack of lies designed to continue generating more fear and hysterical public support for disarming and persecuting White Americans long after the events in DC on Jan. 6.

In this case, particular fear and suspicion is being created of all Whites living in small towns and/or rural areas.

'Lonnie Coffman' is one of two things.

1. A man who never existed before ZOG created him out of thin air to star in one of their Propaganda Pieces.

2. One of the stupidest White men in this country today.

Providing, of course, he actually did what the FBLie says after driving himself to DC.

My money's on no.1...

Miles and miles of ever-increasing "no man's land" will likely breed more activists.

Ted Kaczynski would still be mailing packages if not for his own brother turning him in.

Default This cannot be said enough times so PAY ATTENTION

The lesson here, boys and girls, is if you plan to do something, well, let's just say something that would get the attention of law enforcement, follow this one simple rule:

KEEP YOUR GOODAMN MOUTH SHUT. TELL NO ONE-NO ONE-ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!

Is that clear enough?

It is not easy to be "off the grid", most people pay for utilities. Of course you can have a private well (we do) but then you pay property taxes. Very few people manage to be truly "off grid".
I read a very good book recently 'The Art of Invisibility' by Kevin Mitnick. I highly recommend it.

Not if you work illegal as individual or if you corrupted court as big fish. Russian and Italy mafia as examples,you will not see them here on forum because they are not stupid for showing their IP addresses here on private forum who is not part of them. I saw that Italy mafia have more profit than one auto industry. I had also problem in business as worker with such kind of crony capitalists. They are well known in independent media because they are part of international business clubs. We have here topic what will be if are deep state controlling by us,well I gave to you examples how you must be first on top in your White states. They do not want feeble-minded people within their ranks as The Order or some stupid Whites who have pro-White views. It is not all about Jews,it is also about White "criminals" who are in deal with whole world for profit. Who knows,maybe some pro-Whites exists in FBI,military,courts,read this forum and wait right time,I do not expect that we can see here them. This post is nothing secret,they well know all of this.

Some of your sentences are difficult to work out (e.g., 'We have here topic what will be if are deep state controlling by us'...). At any rate, the "mafia" is not a particular person nor does the term even refer to a particular person. It's doubtful that the men who constitute any such group are off the grid.
