this is pretty common if you look at all the FBI terrorism busts in recent history. look up Brandon Darby and the 2008 RNC arrests, the NATO 5, and the kids from Occupy Cleveland. and that's just in the anarchist community, there are several more incidents in the Muslim community that I just don't know off the top of my head. there's a common joke in activist circles that whoever offers to bring the explosives is the pig. and it's hilariously/unconformably true.
