Cops Raid Gun Collector

His only “crime” was in owning too many guns and model rockets. Was he a potential terrorist? NO. Only in the fevered minds of some government bureaucrats. They “trumped up” charges of several felonies, including six counts of illegal possession of explosives (for a hobbyist rocketeer). This man is also in the Skeet Shooting Hall of Fame. Has he EVER shown the slightest tendency toward terrorism? No. But that makes no difference to the anti-gun fools in our government, who will do whatever it takes to criminalize gun ownership, especially someone who owns many guns. Cops were called for a break-in at this man’s house, saw all the explosives (legal) and guns (also legal) and panicked. They moved people from their homes and blocked off the area, as if the explosives (connected to his rocketeering) were in danger of going off (which they weren’t). I expect most charges to be dropped later, after all his expensive explosives have been detonated and destroyed, and most of the guns kept, with bureaucrats saying they are “dangerous weapons,” even though they were ALL legally owned.
