It took a sawed off shotgun, a bunch of crispy children and a dude with a box truck to convince them to only entrap minorities. I feel like there is a story there, could you please provide a little more info?

The sawed off shotgun is a reference to Ruby Ridge

The crispy children is a reference to the Waco siege.

The box truck is a reference to the Oklahoma City bombing.

If you choose to research those first two terms they will lead you down a very deep and dark rabbit hole of government misdeeds. You've been warned.
