What is ACP?

I've been following developments with some interest. It appears that this fellow has been taken into custody without further incident.

Hudson Valley "News 12" Report

In short, it looks as if an old army buddy falsely claimed that this fellow had "post-traumatic stress disorder" (PTSD) and was spoiling for a fight with police, who then threatened his wife with the loss of her children to "Child Protective Services" if she didn't allow the fuzz to forcibly enter the house and seize this fellow's personal firearms and associated supplies, which evidently included at least one banned high-capacity rifle magazine. Later on, this fellow came back from work and "holed up" in his own home, and an unknown number of supporters — reportedly as many as 75 — arrived on the scene for a possible "boogaloo," whatever that means. The police apparently cut off this fellow's Internet connection and his cellphone service during the standoff. Hours went by, and the standoff ended without violence.

That's my unverified, simplified, off-the-cuff impression of what happened. A fuller account probably will vary considerably from the picture painted by initial news reports.

The posse commitatus work around. The police need to be demilitarized.

If this victim is still breathing, the best we can do is to de-brief him on what happened during the entire standoff so others can learn from it. Also. If this was red-flagish, I’m all for doxing snitches.

Just my $0.02

For anyone interested, the following link to a YouTube video popped up in a Reddit thread, showing the man himself in his own words:
