FEDS RAID YOUTUBE GUN STAR’S HOME AGAIN, SEIZE DOZENS OF WEAPONS (FPS Russia)
Tribunist ^ | Feb 11, 2018

Posted on 02/16/2018 6:16:39 AM PST by Lazamataz

Kyle Lamar Myers, more commonly known by his YouTube moniker FPS Russia, was raided by federal agents following his arrest. According to the Athens Banner-Herald, Myers had been caught receiving illegal narcotics through the mail.

While he was incarcerated, Myer’s home was searched by federal authorities. ATF spokesman Nero Priester announced that more than 50 firearms were seized by the federal agents, but no illegal explosives were found.

The 30-year-old Georgia native was arrested on August 8, 2017 by the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office in Carnesville, Georgia. He was later released on a $10,000 bond and faces charges of possessing a schedule one narcotic and other paraphernalia, which could lead to a prison sentence up to 30 years.

"FPS Russia" got busted. Weird, and bad for him -- a felony will prevent him from ever handling firearms again.

Drugs and guns don’t mix well.

I wonder if he really had the drugs sent or someone else “did him a favor!’

I'm not so sure. After all, the AR-15 was invented by a guy named Stoner...

Anyone messing with hardcore drugs I don’t want having a gun anyway. Using, trafficking, don’t care.

My first thought is to suspect that the BATFE sent the drugs to him to provide their excuse for a raid.

Are you sure the Federal Bureau of Incrimination did not send him the package?

It would seem that he had to lie on some 4473s

Why wasn’t the BATF disbanded for killing all those innocent Mexican people..?

I think they ought apologize and then disband.

I see your remark as a valid concern.

I was once in a situation where we did for fact have bad cops. We locked our home and vehicles always. We were not worried about theft or vandalism, we were worried the cops would plant something. We also had cameras set up. We knew several people targeted by them, their lives were miserable.

Considering how our federal justice system has has steered away from justice in favor of politics, someone mailing this guy evidence is not at all out of the question.

I wonder too. Easy way to take out a gun advocate. Plant him and then offer the worlds best plea deal. Plea guilty, time served + revocation of gun rights.

Something the FBI would do.

IIRC, his YouTube channel has been inactive for months. Longer than that, really - very little has been posted since back when his FFL guy was murdered (Two years ago? Longer? I don't recall exactly when that happened).

Seemed like this guy had been laying low since then, and now this happens. Hmm. Maybe the feds wanted him shut down for good and lost patience.

Federal law enforcement has been political at least from the Clinton years, maybe earlier. They were definitely used as a political tool when they were brought in to kill all the men, women and children inside the branch davidian compound.

"someone mailing this guy evidence is not at all out of the question."

Being this guy was making his money on youtube videos which is very labor intensive. I doubt he had anything to do with drugs.

I would say it's very likely he is being set up.

Feds have no credibility. Not guilty.

I hope I never get arrested for anything, having prescribed drugs and firearms in my home would be a field day for the feds. I’m playing it straight from now on! (sarc)

I remember reading about bad cops in Chicago fifty eight years ago. After they were off shift, they would burgle homes.

Was anyone arrested for that? I remember it all being very shady and not a lot of details. I do not recall if there was any suspicions about it being about drugs or anything. But there were accusations that they were dealing with some nefarious folks to get and use some of the weapons that were in the videos.

It makes me wonder if they might have had some "other" miscreant dealings going on. I don't trust the FBI for sure. But considering the suspicious murder that none of victims colleagues wanted to talk about, there is some room to speculate about the arrest being legit.

I might have to do some google trolling about it.
