      Where did I state anything other than a trend?   How many high profile shootings have we had in the last 6 months? Movie theaters, malls, schools, business owners etc. This is not the same pace these events have taken place in the past. This â€œtrend” of public shootings is most certainly increasing.   Whether is the overall decay of society, lack of political leadership, prescription meds etc. the trend is getting worse. Nobody but you said anything otherwise regarding a conspiracy. The end result is, these events will not be good for any of us.  

Horrible news.   As we used to say when I worked in R&D:   1 is a data point.   2 is a coincidence.   3 or more is a trend.

One thought that came to mind: Liberals often cheat to fit their agenda. One thing liberals like less than the truth is conservatives. So let's say a new social forum comes out just for "conservatives". If you had a hidden agenda, what better way to get a group to self proclaim they are conservative, so you can gain personal info, E-mail etc. Not saying that's the case, rather just a thought.

  Well, I did not say that but the article did.  :)

Updated info: "Bob Adams" below is reported to be a very reputable collector. http://www.krqe.com/dpp/news/crime/feds-seized-nearly-1500-guns-in-raid Feds seized nearly 1,500 guns in raid Updated: Thursday, 31 Jan 2013, 6:59 PM MST Published : Thursday, 31 Jan 2013, 6:59 PM MST Crystal Gutierrez ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - A federal search warrant affidavit outlines the massive raid that seized nearly 1,500 firearms from the home and business of an Albuquerque man and why the feds were after him. Last week rifles lined the lawn of a northeast Albuquerque home that belonged to Robert Adams. Homeland Security Investigations was also busy loading hundreds of handguns into boxes. It took federal agents days to log every weapon seized into evidence. Four search warrants filed Thursday show the HSI investigators seized nearly 900 firearms from Adams' home. There were 548 handguns and 317 rifles listed in the warrant return inventory. They also searched his office that day taking 599 pistols and revolvers. Adams has not been charged with any crimes although Homeland Security said the investigation is not over yet. Neighbors said Adams was a gun collector, and some heard he was a licensed gun seller, too. Federal investigators confirm that. However, they're also investigating him for possible gun smuggling, tax evasion and violating importation laws. Court documents reveal federal agents were watching Adams for years and that some documentation was missing "to determine to whom Adams [was] selling or exporting his firearms." The guns were also not properly marked possibly to make the guns more valuable and to avoid paying high import taxes, investigators alleged. However, a bigger concern is that no markings on the guns and missing documents mean the guns are not traceable by law enforcement. One neighbor who did not want to be identified said it was a shock. “I didn’t really see the guns but from a distance," the neighbor said. "I saw them being pulling them out into the front yard. “Its very scary in the fact that the school is so close by makes it seem even more dangerous.” The search warrant also said Adams was investigated in Canada for keeping about 80 illegal guns in a storage unit. U.S. agents worked with Canadian police on that case.

I have a good safe, however, I know I could get into it in probably less than 20 min w/ 4 " angle grinder, crow bar and sledge. It's about slowing people down to get what's inside.   You would have to be doing this while the alarm system is blaring. I know it takes less then 10 min for the Sherrif to get here when it goes off.

Awesome. I never remember hearing about this.

This very near our house. It started getting VERY loud around 3:15 and we got into the basement.   http://www.newschannel5.com/story/20810583/damage-widespread-across-mid-state-power-outages-reported

I'm shocked it was not reported yet that he had an AR-15...........................

Savage fan here.

Lots of trees down north of Hendersonville.

How far can you shoot on the property?

Can't comment on the other brands but I also have the Eotech magnifier. It's very clear and makes shooting at 300 yards a whole lot easier.

Being from there, I am frankly shocked he made that statement publicly.   But I'm sure there are many people that are glad he did.

Cool. Just like the "billet" car craze in a rifle!

  That's what they did on mine. Guys on the CMP forums call them "Pumpkin" stocks. The color is easily changed, however.

You suck!

  Trust me, I would be much more eloquent in my response, even though that's what I meant. I'm a certified professional at telling people to go F themselves while remaining tactful. :)

  That would be my brother in-law who 30 years and is also a flaming lib. Still can't understand that....................

Sorry if this is a repost. This response was awesome from the Mayor!   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKpLhNiC8zg&feature=youtu.be

NOYFB!

This guy was not charged with anything. Does not say why they investigated him either?   http://www.krqe.com/dpp/news/crime/raiders-pull-arsenal-records-from-home?ref=scroller&categoryId=10001&status=true

  Well.............he got more votes. Take that as you wish.........................

The fact Charlie's is open to anyone and the price, makes it one of the best places around. Plus he's a great guy!

Guy at the local Walmart counter said, a couple guys wait for the trucks and come clean them out after it's been stocked on the shelves. He said it's up to the local store manager if they want to limit ammo sales per customer.
