Arrested for ammo.

Yeah, I saw a different article that made it clear he was actually arrested for possessing guns without a Mass permit, and was being investigated for selling guns without an FFL.

But on the side 30,000 rds???. This guy needs to be in jail cause he'd be much safer there.

From that prospective -- if I owned thirty thousand rounds I would be safer in jail?

 

[.cheese.]

[joke] You would be if your house caught on fire. Those jail walls are reinforced concrete. [/joke]

That's BS but all the people in MASS. know who the hoarder is! lol

At least I know who to be angry at now!!!

If I could afford to I'd put this bumper sticker on every car in the country. (except Priuses, I'd put rainbow stickers on them.)

Hate to tell you this, but 30,000 rounds in possession is NOT against ANY law that I am aware of and describes quite a few people of my acquaintance. It's only 6 cases of .22 rimfire, for instance

If only this were true but remember, we're talking about The People's Rebubic of Massachusetts here. Man, I gotta get out of this state

That is hard to believe, the prosecutor at Garcia's arraignment said, because if he were to fire a gun for eight hours a day, it would take weeks for him to use all of it.

I could spit out well over 10,000 a day. I could spit out well over 20,000 a night.

24 hours baby.. weeks? Maybe if you're hand loading each one with no tools.

Now, as far as how I'd handle 30,000rds of ammo.. Definitely not in the car, definitely never all at once.

Just to clarify something; Being a member of a gang or even AFFILIATION WITH THE GANG IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM is a CRIME at least here in the state of Georgia, therefore ALL gangmembers and thier "crews" are CRIMINALS. I do not know how the laws are written about gang activity in other states, but gangs are nothing but CRIME here in Georgia, literally.

-searching for the O.C.G.A. / will post as soon as I locate it-
