There is video of one of the arrested calling Trump a tyrant and an enemy, so Whitmer jumped the gun blaming Trump supporters. I do agree with the entrapment angle being possible. ATF and FBI love to infiltrate groups like this and incite/coax them to say things that they can arrest them for.
Probably very little, if any at all.
The nutters I've encountered like these are all zealots who need no urging to actions counter to any good order and peace not dictated by themselves. In other words, people who should be sent away to live...
There are plenty of them on either side of any issue. The armed ones should be put down. Not a popular sentiment, but WTF? Kidnap a governor? Which lunatic thought up that stupidity? They're a danger to themselves and society.

The problem is, i could say much the same about Witmer's conduct (and most other governors, but she's among the most egregious).

Witmer's abuses can be roughly summed up as mass unlawful incarceration. The Warden of a state-wide prison, in which nobody was charged, tried, or convicted. They're following your same logic. "The armed ones should be put down".
The real problem is that they've lost faith that the system will work appropriately (as evidenced by her forging ahead even after her measures being ruled unconstitutional), and so concluded they are the only ones that can reliably play Judge, Jury, and Executioner.
You can say whatever you want about the quarantine. It has been effective.
You can rail against the measures, but people who gather get sick. Science doesn't care if you get sick.
remember its not just liberals with extremist nuts
*i should add, who knows how much entrapment occurred here
