I don't understand the pulling 9k out of the bank thing?


I can see depositing 9k once but when it's in the bank already it's not like they don't have record. Does withdrawing your own money get reported?
View Quote



From my understanding anything above 10k on deposit or withdraw gets reported to IRS.

Overreach is by design.  They're basically doing the equivalent of "chest bumping" someone hoping to get a reaction.

Truly sad what these Federal agencies have become...and the people employed by them are willing to do to Americans...peaceful Americans at that.

You can't make the machine gun from that drawing as a reference. You would need to provide a detailed drawing with measurements needed (or to scale) to machine the parts that are considered illegal arms for citizens to own under the NFA.

I'll break it down for you since you seem to be struggling to understand.

You said "having an SOT, having a friend who sells non-NFA items (drawings on metal), advertising those items, and telling people how to make them in to NFA items" is "conspiracy" because he has an SOT.

I said "If he has an SOT, sells coat hangers (also a non NFA item), and tells people how to turn them in to shitty DIASs (illegal items), is that a conspiracy?"

Faced with the obvious answer (no, of course it isn't, the only possible crime would be on whoever made the DIAS), you realized how stupid your argument was, and instead of admitting it you are accusing me of being off my meds and "coming out of left field".

Most people do have differing ideas. I have asked everyone from my Father, to CEO's of companies if they are off their meds. Doesn't mean I was being rude or discourteous its a question. Blood sugar could also be an item that causes brain fog and a lack of following a conversation.

I guess they could have tried selling a blank piece of metal and an adhesive lable...  Or better yet, make the person who buys it print the label.  Would printing a label be manufacturing the machine gun - or would simply owning a pdf of a file that could print the label do it.  How about owning a printer that could print a label of a possible cut drawing for a piece of metal you don't own yet.

it's a fucking piece of sheet metal with a drawing on it.
you can manufacture an 80% lower, you can manufacture a suppressor that just needs the holes drilled, you can manufacture and sell binary explosives that are not yet mixed etc etc...

he was selling too many and they just want to shut him down. Doesn't matter if the charges stick he will 99.9% stop selling them and the process will be the punishment.

now as far as the structuring that will likely hurt his legal defense fund and he could well get fucked hard on this but it sure as shit doesn't break the letter of the law.

To be totally honest, I did not think withdrawing money was an issue.  I am wrong of course.  Last time I did a cash withdrawal I joked with my bank about the reporting requirement.  I have did more than a few larger withdrawals of the the last year.  Used vehicles and used horses - cash is king.

Nope it was the Hughes act of 86 that said no new manufacture machine guns for public use. You can manufacture a suppressor with the correct paper work as a regular citizen. If you are an FFL+SOT you can manufacture a new machine gun with the correct paperwork, but you can't sell to a civilian without the FFL+SOT.

Hold on.. before the "Yes you can manufacture them!" You as a civilian CAN manufacture them all you like, but it is illegal.

And a solid block of aluminum is not a firearm or machine gun, no matter how much people want to pretend it is.

How far is one willing to take the theory of thoughtcrime?

Does owning a sports car make one automatically guilty of illegal street racing?

Does having a legal prescription for a controlled substance automatically make one guilty of possession with intention to distribute?

Does having a penis make one automatically guilty of rape, or having a vagina make one automatically guilty of prostitution?

Where does one draw the lines between having the potential means to commit a crime and actually committing the crime?

I'm willing to bet almost every single person in this country has the means on hand to create chemical weapons. Should they all be charged with committing terrorist acts for merely owning bleach and ammonia?

Where do you draw the line?
