BOARDMAN, Ohio – A 6-month investigation into an 18-year-old in Ohio has resulted in his arrest on charges of threatening to assault a federal law enforcement officer.

The investigation started in February, according to WJW, when agents found online comments from the teen supporting mass shootings.

According to court documents, the user posted a threat to assault federal law enforcement officers writing, “…shoot every agent on sight,” in a discussion about the Branch Davidian standoff in Waco in 1993.

Agents met with Justin Olsen, who gave written consent for a search of his car and bedroom, according to a probable cause warrant.

On August 7th, agents report they found 10,000 rounds of ammunition, camouflage clothing, camouflaged backpacks, 15 rifles and shotguns and 10 semi-automatic pistols.

Olsen faces one charge for the threat posted online.

He gets charged for the threat, and rightfully so, but you have these idiots running for President calling ICE a terrorist group, and people go and attack ICE offices because of what they're saying, and none of these idiots inspiring these attacks are being taken to task for it.

How does an 18 year old get 25 weapons and 10000 rounds? That's the real question here.

Glad we see his face in a mugshot and not after the fact when 27 innocents are slaughtered within 60 seconds.

That would have cost a small fortune buying all that stuff.

Like Lance said, it would take a bit of money, but it's not impossible. Some of them could have been gifts or hand me downs from family.

I realize he only needs one to commit murder but it's so excessive it almost borders on comical.


I hope some intrepid psychiatrist finds a few things wrong with him and prevents the inevitable by locking him up for a long time.

God damn...18, white, National Guard armory in his closet and he's one step away from writing his manifesto against a fed?

He's a walking stereotype. Glad they prevented this one from going off.

25 is excessive? I know some people with several 60-gun safes filled up and they have a few more guns that they can't fit in them. 25 is a starter's collection.

This kid wasn't a gun collector.

No, he wasn't, but anybody can get 25 guns. It's not difficult. You don't even have to be a collector. The guys I know shoot all of their firearms. They rotate them in and out at range sessions. It's not like they've got a bunch of WW1 or WW2 antiques in glass cases.

I think I'll leave it there..

It's a hobby, like anything else. Some people have cars. Guitars. Comic books. Baseball cards. Watches. Tobacco pipes. Knives. Stamps. Coins. Some people have guns.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not excusing the kid, but really, if you find a stable guy with more than 25 guns, like the guys I know... salt of the Earth, give-you-the-shirt-off-their-back-if-you-needed-it kinda guys... you'd want to be close to them if shit hit the fan.

Exactly.
