Clearly if guilty these guys went way over the line. I am surprised that didn't appear of one of the whack prepper reality shows.

More info from this local news outlet:

The trio is charged with conspiracy to violate laws governing firearms and explosive devices.

Campbell is also charged with receiving, possessing and making a firearm – which definition includes a destructive device.

Federal investigators raided a business in Belmont and homes in Gastonia and Mount Holly during the investigation Saturday.

It seems to me the way to discourage people prepping for martial law is to not take people prepping for martial law seriously (unless a crazy person who claims to be prepping for martial law commits a violent crime, in which case, they should be tried for the violent crime, not the prepping).

The way to suggest that the people prepping for martial law have legitimate concerns is to arrest and charge them.
