Murica will see that 5 and up you 10 or 20 soon enough.
“We’re number one”! But it’s not like Canada is immune to gun violence. We don’t have that pesky 2nd amendment to deal with, so things can be done to try and curb it, somewhat. I don’t agree with some of what we’re doing but I’ll live with it if the good parts are adopted and it helps. Can’t please everyone all of the time :(.

I feel the same way about drones, they are now used as weapons of war and need to be regulated because assholes can use them too.

This guy was 73 and it sounds like an unregistered "legacy gun" something he had from the "good old days", they are still kicking around and if he didn't register it long ago, it tells ya something about him.

I have a couple of long guns that were never registered, all it says about me is I was to lazy to do it, now it’s a mute point, it isn’t a requirement. Him murdering people tells me all I need to know about him :(. I’ve said a few times here that I’m not sure registration is a useful tool? I do think the banning of imports, and sales of handguns is a very useful tool, as well as minimum sentencing guidelines for illegal possession of handguns.

Long guns are a different issue, hand guns are what I was referring to, most people registered those and there was that long gun registry fiasco too.

Yup it sure was a fiasco! And yes handguns are a totally different beast! All the long gun registry was, was a lesson in how to burn a few billion dollars.

That’s a lot of money on display, but the rest of their stuff is crap.
that's probably a paid for college education for one of those kids...
i can't even understand the reasoning behind that display...most people can't fire one gun effectively, much less two, but if each one of them held two,
and carried another two...just whats on the roof would cover that, the rest is a stupid waste of money...like anything more than one per person isn't really a stupid waste of money. if things went to hell, i could see two handguns for protection, a small rifle for varmints, a larger rifle for deer, and a shotgun for bird hunting...what else do you need to survive?
that guy must have a whole walk in closet full of ammo.
that has to be at least 50k laid out there, and probably another 5 to 10k in ammo somewhere...

At avg. $500 a weapon and 100 weapons on display, my numbers match yours. The spoiler are those target bolt guns in the front row. Some of those could be five figures each, and that’s not counting the optics.

least lil Jeb is learning some life skills. “What ya weigh, Son?”
“Three Dragunovs, eleven AKs and two Glocks!”

For their sake I hope it's a joke and that represents the entire collection of his gun club. Cuz that house isn't the home of a rich man.

Reminds me of this story:


He Built a Home to Survive a Civil War. Tragedy Found Him Anyway.
C. Wesley Morgan once believed that the place he built, which included a 2,000-square-foot bunker, was the safest house in Kentucky.

He had built the house in the Obama years, when he was convinced society was on the verge of collapse. Here his family could live in secluded comfort, and if the social fabric truly tore apart, as he expected it would, they could wait out the chaos in an abundantly stocked underground bunker. Now he couldn’t wait to be rid of it.

The keystone of his survival plan was what lay underneath: a shelter 26 feet underground, beneath a 39-inch solid ceiling. It contains 2,000 square feet of bedrooms and common space along with a stocked food pantry, an air filtration system and two escape tunnels, one of them 100 feet long. The company that installed the shelter suggested that Mr. Morgan keep quiet about it, because “if anything ever happened, there’d be people that try to take the bunker.”



And that's what happened. A nut job found out about his home and came to take it. Armed to the teeth.

So, I hope he doesn't keep that trove at that shit house of his.

Yeah, I vaguely remember saying that the rest of their stuff was crap. Those kids are gonna need therapy after such a display of their being a little low on the parental priority index.

Stewart Rhodes' son: ‘How I escaped my father’s militia’

Dakota grew up "absolutely believing" in his father's view of the world - what he described as a "vision of a shadowy, malicious communist conspiracy seeking to institute a New World Order… aiming to seize total power and institute a one world government that would intentionally sow chaos".
It took until his teenage years for his faith in the coming government-backed apocalypse to be shaken, and until his early adulthood to finally escape.

and he will be escaping for the rest of his life. Stuff leaves a mark. I sincerely hope he doesn’t find the wrong church … cultists can smell that sort of vulnerability.
