A Georgia man has been arrested in Tennessee--authorities say he headed to Madisonville, armed and prepared to take over the courthouse.

Darren Huff stands charged of traveling in interstate commerce with intent to incite a riot and transporting in commerce a firearm in furtherance of a civil disorder.

The FBI says Huff traveled to Tennessee armed with a pistol on his hip and an assault rifle in his truck, intent on carrying out citizen's arrests of 24 federal, state, and local officials, and on seeing that another man did not face trial for trying to do the same.

On April 1, Walter Francis Fitzpatrick had tried a citizen's arrest of Grand Jury Foreman Gary Pettway. Fitzpatrick had previously tried to get the grand jury to indict President Barack Obama on charges of treason, with no success. Fitzpatrick was charged with disorderly conduct, inciting to riot, disrupting a meeting, and resisting arrest.

The FBI said Fitzpatrick had drafted and issued citizen's arrest warrants for the state, local, and federal officials.

18. My first thought too

Maybe he feels like GA is "secure" but TN needs to be saved.

19. They Are Birthers

He was going to support a court-martialed loon (Fitzpatrick) who has been trying to get the grand jury of that county in TN to indict Obama for not being sufficiently American.

Fitzpatrick is one of the looniest of the lot, and he draws them like flies.
