Benjamin Ryan Teeter: Difference between revisions

'''Benjamin Ryan Teeter''' (born April 8th, 1998) is a lifelong political activist and member of the [[Libertarian]] party.  He is a former Vice Chair of the [[Cape Fear Regional Affiliate]] of the [[Libertarian Party of North Carolina]] and a former member of the Executive Committee for the [[Libertarian Party of North Carolina]].  He is known in the anarchist community as Anarcho-Gun Guy, and he was a prominent public figure for the Boogaloo movement.  He also ran for Vice-Chair of the [[Libertarian Party of North Carolina]], having dropped out of the race after appearing in a CNN article.

FBI arrested Teeter and his co defendant Michael Solomon in September of 2020 outside of Minneapolis.  It was a classic example of government entrapment arrests, but like none had seen before.  After the entire American population was just about to wrap up years of Trump business scams making the airwaves, the federal government decided to prey on economically vulnerable Americans like Teeter and Solomon and attempt to lure once hard working Americans into a multi-million dollar pyramid scheme selling gun parts for a previously unheard of and completely unknown foreign organization nobody had ever heard of before.  At least the government had this organization written down as a terrorist organization so they could legally lure more of their own people into the already overcrowded prison population.  For the generation that grew up listening to how the United States military ought to pull out of it’s role as policeman around the world, for the generation that grew up playing first person shooter video games as heroic protagonists, for a generation that witnessed a failure by the US military to leave a trace of peace in Afghanistan after leaving a decades long occupation, and for a military that hadn’t won a war since WWII, it was a natural fit for the government to use this kind of 1984 George Orwell-esque strategy on economically challenged-due-to-Covid-era American civilians like Teeter and Solomon after seeing them in the national media and finding a quick way to contact them.
