Why? They want you to piss yourself each time you see a gun or a bullet.
Want proof? Give your kid a empty shell casing with a spent primer and a bullet stuffed in the end of the casing to put on his keychain.
He will get suspended when he goes to school and some drooler spots it. Probably get arrested too.
Never mind it is an inert piece of metal and NO threat to anyone.
Why?
Because they want you fearful.
It’s perfectly OK that he had guns, it’s OK that he had ammo. It’s even OK that he had Tannerite. For all I care he could have had bazookas, flame throwers and grenade launchers.
But you seem to be glossing over the fact that he had all of the things AND a rudimentary plan to kill Biden.
That’s kind of the focus of the story, the weapons are incidental. If he had planned to chop Biden into bits small enough to hide, the story no doubt would have mentioned that he had a meat cleaver, a bone saw, and a vat of lye.
No one’s picking on guns.

You are right Boru, nobody is picking on guns. But I myself am sick of the attitude that more guns are good, and no record at time of buy works.
This isn't for me about gun ownership, This is for me, about the firearm makers and firearm shops doing better vetting when the buyer walks in to buy. There is no way anyone sane could claim this guy was "the right hands" to be in possession of firearms.
If honest gun owners don't want the stigma, then they could and should want better vetting to keep firearms out of the wrong hands.
If I owned a gun shop, I am not simply going to go, "Ok, you have no record". Plenty of people fly under the radar who should not be in possession of a firearm. Mentally ill should not have firearms. Addicts should not have firearms. Domestic abusers should not have firearms. Violent felons should not have firearms.
Now here is where OLB claims are laws are already tough and they just need to be enforced. If they worked so well this nut wouldn't have gotten his hands on so many, legally or illegally.
