Lawyer Stephan Stamboulieh on X (formerly Twitter) released more documents from the FBI’s symbol guide. This list seems to be an updated list of those previously released to the public. At the same time AmmoLand News received the same print outs.
The new terms added in this edition are “molon labe,” “prepping,” and “Second Amendment(2A).” The FBI says these terms can be signs of violent militia extremism. The document also says militia violent extremists (MVEs) might regard “red flag” laws, aka extreme risk protection orders (ERPOs,) as unconstitutional, but it isn’t just MVEs that think that. Many legal experts and civil libertarians openly oppose ERPOs for the lack of due process. Several lawsuits have been filed challenging such laws, and members of Congress have spoken out against “red flag” laws.
“What’s this,” Stamboulieh tweeted on X. “New FBI’ Symbols Guide.’ Suspicious terms include ‘Molon Labe,’ ‘prepping,’ and the scariest one, ‘Second Amendment.’”

The rest of the document is like the previous documents covered by AmmoLand News, including the term “oath breaker.” Oath breaker references someone who took an oath to defend the Constitution but has ignored their oath to enforce unconstitutional laws. In Marbury v. Madison, the Supreme Court ruled that unconstitutional laws are void. Some people believe it is the duty of someone who swore an oath to protect the rights of the citizens has a duty not to enforce such laws.
Another symbol of “concern” to the FBI is anyone posting the meme of the “Killdozer.” The “Killdozer” meme has gained popularity over the years after a Colorado man named Marvin Heemeyer up-armored a bulldozer. Mr. Heemeyer believed that the city of Graby conspired against him. He would demolish several buildings in the city before taking his own life after the bulldozer got stuck. He would kill himself with a gunshot to the head. Flags and shirts are sold mirroring the Gadsden flag, but instead of having a rattlesnake with the words “Don’t Tread on Me” below, the flag has the “Killdozer” and the words “Tread on Them.” Although most take it as a joke, the FBI takes it seriously.
Patriot Political Prisoners (P3) is another term mentioned in the document. Many consider those arrested for the January 6, 2022, Capitol riots to be political prisoners, believing they have been held too long without the speedy trial promised by our Constitution. The FBI seems to think anyone who has concerns about the holding of the suspects might be a violent militant extremist.
According to the FBI, anyone who practices preparedness and is a “prepper” might be an MVE—using terms such as bug out might put you on the FBI’s radar. Many people have bug out plans for the unexpected, such as a natural disaster. Also, using Sh*t Hits the Fan (SHFT) might lead to scrutiny from the FBI. The term has been around for decades, but now the FBI considers it a possible sign of an MVE.
The FBI is scared that the term “Come and Take It” might be a sign of a willingness to resist gun control violently, even though it has been used throughout the centuries from the ancient Greeks to the Alamo. Many gun rights organizations have also used the phrase to show their willingness to fight back against unconstitutional gun control through the court system.
The updated list shows that the FBI is still targeting right-leaning individuals as targets for surveillance.

“We hold these truths to be self evident……” — Declaration of Independence Here’s another “self evident” truth. As the Left, and and now the FBI, so rightly point out, the American people are armed to the teeth with more firearms and more ammunition in civilian hands than are owned by all of the military and Police in America combined. But that having been said, if we were also as extremist and prone to violence as they say, there would not be enough survivors left to collect the dead, much less sufficient body bags to bag them up or enough shovels… Read more »

Funny thing about history, it tends to repeat itself. Hitler came up with the same propaganda (lies) against Jews, Christians and anyone else who opposed him, That ended with a world war and many millions of innocent people dead, King George also did the same thing to the colonials and it birthed a nation, this one. You might note that the f.b.i. is sworn to defend the people, the nation and the constitution — which includes the first and second amendments. Therefore, the f.b.i. is committing TYREASON. There are laws against treason but they have not been enforced by government… Read more »
Hey Ammoland..
PLEASE GET RID OF THE SHARE WITH ‘STICKY’ that comes up on the left margin of my phone. IT BLOCKS SO MUCH REAL ESTATE that it makes it VERY DIFFICULT to read the site.
Thanks..
Well, I have some EXTREMELY distressing news for “their” shadow government. The ones hell bend on making citizens bow down to them and be subservient. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to be rebellious, under the Constitution. The declaration of independence states this: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That, whenever any form… Read more »
Awwww…….poor babies, afraid of their own shadows. What the FiBbIes want are sheeple, easily led onto the railroad cars and into the FEMA camps. What the FiBbIes are afraid of is people that will push back against their unConstitutional and unlawful actions and entrapments. They want to live long enough to collect their pensions. If they would leave “us” alone, and stop considering “us” a threat against the Republic, then we would leave them alone as well. Buuuut, since the FiBbIes, like all authoritarian po-po (Stazi, KGB, et al), have developed the “us vs them” mentality, well, they just can’t… Read more »
