RICHMOND, Calif. (KGO) -- California Attorney General Rob Bonta Thursday announced the arrest of a suspect in the city of Richmond with a large cache of illegal firearms.
This includes assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, and approximately one million rounds of ammunition. Officials say the suspect is allegedly not legally allowed to own firearms.
From link - "It is not clear why the suspect in this case is prohibited from owning weapons."
It's not clear because they're blowing smoke up your ass. Here's some back story from another web site I visit (frugalsquirrels.com) -
Bud was living the dream we all have..
But, there was nothing illegal about his collection. Here is the real story.
This is from a similar article and if true the state is lying to everyone.
My friend is a local FFL that does contract work for the Police Department and Sheriff's Department where this happened and he gave me some background to this case a few days ago. The man who this stuff belonged to is in his 90s and a relative of his had to obtain legal guardianship over the man because he is suffering from advanced dementia which is why he is no longer legally allowed to possess firearms. The man has not lived in the house where his collection was stored for the better part of 6 years because he's living in a nursing home. The majority of the firearms have been owned for more than 40 years well before they were ever regulated in California and the man has possessed a special federal firearms license called a Curios and Relic license for the better part of 60 years that allowed him under California law to possess machine guns. The actual machine guns that were in the man's possession are ones that are legally owned and are registered with the NFA and the tax has been paid on them. The authorities have been well aware of what was in his possession because he registered them with the state when they required it. They're simply pretending like this man is a criminal once they found out he was no longer mentally fit to possess the firearms and gleefully seized his collection.
Seems the state is lying about the circumstances of this case and tried to make it look like they made a huge bust.
That's all completely believable. Leave it to Rob Bonta and the CA DOJ 'Special Agents' to go after a soft target like a 90 year old man who is in a care facility and make him sound like he's Al Capone. The only thing missing in the story is Bonta saying "If we had more funding, we'd be able to take more weapons like this out of the hands of people that shouldn't have them".
Thanks for the rest of the story, U. of Saigon 68.
I know it is California, but their laws preventing prohibitive persons from owning firearms is not working as anyone can see. That guy had plenty. I would say that was a pretty good looking collection there and doubt he accumulated it overnight. Is it illegal in CA to stockpile ammo? Asking for a friend.

ReplyDeleteWhat's so difficult about saying what made this guy a prohibited person?
ReplyDeleteSorry, I really meant to write, "the Democrat party's Winter Celebration card list."
DeleteProbably an illegal cartel sex-offender with multiple DUIs, multiple deportations, and an overdue library book.
DeleteJust kidding, no library for him.
Looked like a Class 3 collector to me. So if they were kosher with the feds what gives?

Just like the ATF with David Koresh, the KAL DOJ wanted a trophy head to justify their job and budget.
