A running
joke among those with a strong belief in gun rights.
The idea stems from a hypothetical scenario that bounces around
American libertarian communities quite often, in which the ATF would find out that you own illegal guns, such as illegally made machine guns, and then raid your house, as they did in the Ruby Ridge incident, at which point you would make some valiant stand and fight off an entire swat team with illegal weapons and booby traps, akin to an
R-Rated Home Alone film. They'll commonly also refer to the ATF SWAT team as "fedbois" or "
alphabet bois".
The Claymore Roomba itself is simple. A claymore is a directed
anti-personnel explosive. You point it in a direction and it kills everything in that direction, with minimum collateral damage to targets around it. A roomba has a large
button on the
front, that acts as a bumber to detect when it bumps into something, so the idea behind a claymore roomba would be to mount a claymore on a roomba, wire the detonator to the bumper, then when it drives forward into a "fedboi"'s foot, it would fire shrapnel forwards, demolishing the officer's shins.
(This does raise a question, as the roomba curves around unpredictably, so how would you get it to tell the difference between a SWAT team and some piece of furniture that they're walking by?)
